Evening All

Not be declaring AF today as myself and my sister went to the Glam show in Glasgow featuring the God that is Gok Wan, it was a brilliant day and we had two fabby cocktails and one drink later with dinner, maybe will have a couple more tonight but won't overdo it and that's the main thing.

Something different anyway....

Hope everyone is well and doing OK.

After my little blip earlier in the week i realised that some things are just not worth worrying about, not least other peoples opinion, which is what i tend to worry about.

At the end of the day there's them that matter and them that don't.

Thanks all for your support:D

Not been af here tonight (or yesterday) however only had 2 bottles of beer and about half a glass of wine with dinner, had the inlaws over for a meal, which is usually a heavy night as they always bring over loads of wine so I am pleased that I stopped..did much a mars bar though so now feeling bloated and sicky.. Yesterday was only 1 measly glass of wine...was watching what could mildly be called a game of football and there was one glass left of dhs red wine from the day before, so just had that....bit of a waste of a drinking day, but my mindset is now more that I want to keep drinking days really low...will see how this goes as I am also seriously thinking of being af all the time,but I know that I need to really want to do something for it to work out i ykwim...

Anyway, sorry to waffle on

Have a great holiday sparkles..:cool:

I think this thread is a great idea, although I don't have a huge number of AF days I know that I really should. Still, only two beers this evening, and it is Saturday, after all...

Well done on not overdoing it! I am chuffed as i did not overdo it today however i am not finished yet, but feel i will be ok.

Theres a difference between drinking and enjoying it and drinking and feeling bad about it which doesn't help...

PS Gok Wan pure bl00dy cool am still quite excited!

Also met a psychic guy from the sun, who said to me there are lots of changes ahead :eek: and that "it's ok to feel things sometimes" and i beat myself up too much. quite random and relevant i thought though i take these things with a pinch of salt.

It made me think that sometimes i drink to push my feelings down.

Its uncomfortable to feel things sometimes especially when i have been in the habit of avoidance tactics for so long, quite scary when i feel thestuff i have been avoiding even the good things make me feel very emotional at times... or apnicky when it seems things are good and happy and promising. and then i tend to mess things up, though thats nothing to do with alcohol, sometimes its just me and my demons.

Am waffling now so must be a bit drunk:D

But i know i won't go mental and thats the main thing.

I hope:rotfl:

onwards and upwards everyone!!!
