  • DH has just gone out to get some beers for himself . I declined his offer of a bottle of wine ( he nearly died of shock;)) . I feel so Blahh at the moment that drinking is simply not an option . * long may it continue*

  • Hi all,

    Please may I join you? I found this thread when searching for "cutting-down alcohol" and I've been reading through it for a few days. Getting my nerve up to join in! I am very worried and and anxious about my drinking.
    The most I have managed so far is a couple of days off and then back on again. I don't know why I find it so hard to cut down but I do. It is very
    encouraging to see so many of you doing well and the help and encouragement you give each other. It helps to know there are others out there with a similar problem and that they are tackling it.
    I am 51 today! I really feel it is time I did something about this drinking as it makes me so miserable. I'd like to join in the January challenge if I may and say I will try for 25 AF days. If I manage to achieve that I will be delighted!

    Best wishes to all

    DB
