    And I'm not annoyed by you either, in case my attempt at being tactful and diplomatic was too wishy washy to say anything.

    Go or don't go according to what is best for you, not what you think we think.

    Hugs.

    115K - you're not annoying at all. We're all struggling in our own ways - tripping and stumbling as we go but we're all doing our best and that's what matters. Some of us are trying to give up and some are just cutting down, it's all what works for you at the end of the day. Good luck whatever you decide to do xx

  • Hey 115K - What Sparkles, PBT and YM have said!

    Please don't stay away because of what you think others might be thinking. I think we're a very supportive and non-judgemental bunch
    and we're all here for each other no matter how well or not we think we are doing. Don't worry about the targets. I didn't do well on those at
    all in Jan and Feb but a bit better in March and hope to carry on like
    that. Ff you feel you really want a break then you must but do come back.

    I'm AF tonight so 1 for me please WBF.
    7 days in a row is a record for me.

    DS1 is out clubbing tonight so I'm very anxious and 1 will be up
    very late tonight!

    RA Thanks for the poem. I can several things which apply to me in there.

    I can make it to Trafalgar Square tomorrow if you like so you're not a lonely bear on your own. Cup of tea or hot chocolate or somefing?

    :D

    I won't actually be leaving my flat tomorrow unless I have to, having looked at the weather :eek: It was more a thought of a location... However if you're going to be out & about? :)

    And evening all, I can't think of any good acronyms as yet :o

    ps.great poem :)

    That rang so true with me. I have to say that I got drunk last night even though it was an AF day and I am not AF today. I feel like I am being annoying to people that are really trying to give up on here. You are all kind people who have helped me a lot but I think I need a break from here for a while. I feel like a fraud at the moment.

    I really hope you all do very well in the future.:A Good luck. I will be back on here I'm sure, I just need a bit of time hopefully.

    *hugs*

    Sweetie, we're all here to look out for each other, at whatever stage or whatever version of relationship we have drinking. The person who is most important in your fight is YOU. So take care of yourself, whether you stay or go. And remember we're always happy to have you around :)
