Replace the thought of drinking with something else, maybe. Give yurself something to look forward to to take your mind off it, easing the panic....

Perhaps we should arrange a London meet up in a few months time when the weather is better. Anyone up for it ?

Marru congrats! I turned 40 just before I had my Son in August and I can honestly say I had a much better pg and birth experience this time round ( I have a 16 yo DD) and I LOVE bein a Mummy again :j

Thank you so much for this. It does help to put my mind at ease.

And For all lovely congratulations.

I think I better join the 365ers and change my ? target this month into 31.

Thank you for the ewok HB - it is lovely!!! Boo for mice - I have no words to make it better but to you.

I have been on ADs since February 2007 and have gone cold turkey today (without consulting my GP as yet) so coming to the thread and having such a nice giggle is definitely good for my mental health!! Brillant :T

Jo - I know what you mean about feeling panicky about not drinking.

I just worked out that to beat my AF result from 2009 I have to have more than 11 days AF for every month.:eek: I'm worrying already that I won't do it and then I think well if I can't beat the target then why try at all.:rolleyes:

Why is it so hard! This stupid weather isn't helping either, it's making me want to just stay inside while it's dark and cold and get merry. I don't know why I can't seem to relax without alcohol.:mad:

I'm thinking about doing a 5 day detox thing every month so at least I know I will have a few days every month when I won't have alcohol.

A guy walks into a pharmacy.
He says to the pharmacist, "I've heard a lot about that viagra stuff. Does it really work."
The pharmacist says, "Yeah, it works great."
The guy asks, "Do you think I could get it over the counter?"
Pharmacist says, "Well, if you took enough I suppose you could."
