The Giving Up/ Cutting Down alcohol support thread - number 11

41_and_i_know_it

Rachel saw les mis on friday and cried and loved it it is fab isnt it. Glad u had a nice night out love. Just been playing bingo online and got chatting about abstaining from drinking, you wouldn't believe the people who have given up. We think we're the only ones, we are not freaks for being sober one minute and legless the next and unable to tell which we will be. I wish the people who are trying like us had the support network we have. I did mention that im on mse forum but thats all no details about me or anyone else. Is that ok? I only said I am on MSE forum, if i was wrong let me know. I did not break confidentiality because anyone can google mse and find this thread. Just feel that we are a brilliant resource for people in need. 13 AF days and 1 SNC to report going to bed now did have a tiny wobble when i heard the wine bottles noise, reminds me of Pavlovs dogs lol. But no alcohol, none and thats today dont know about rest of my life but im living for today.

41 it's not a breach of confidentiality it's simply sharing a resource that WORKS! I met a girl at my meeting yesterday who was sober for years but now after the birth of her second child needs to get sober again. I fully intend to send her in this dircetion, I gave her my number and I hope she uses it. Isn't it funny, someone told her how brave she was coming back, I found myself agreeing wholeheartedly. But when they told me the same, I thought yeah right, anyone can walk in to a meeting. I've had a re-think now. It was brave of me to go and I continue to be brave and face life head on, every time I walk in there. Food for thought also, a girl where I live in her early 20's with kids (they were at her Mum's thank God) died last week in a fire. She was too drunk to make it out of the house. But for the grace of God, I'm here. X

Oh God my boss just text and wants to have a meeting on Friday. I'm so going to get the sack. I've been off sick since nov 22 with depression and stress and was meant to be going back yesterday, but my boss said he'd call me today. Now meeting Friday at half eleven. Poooooo X

You can't be sacked for being ill, as long as you have a doctors note to cover this.


Do you work for a large or small firm and are you weekly paid or salaried.

AF 14/31- 2 whole weeks, I am so pleased with myself.

Well the first day of my holiday has started well, spent 4 hours sorting paper work out, got a big bag of stuff to burn later.


There are always bits you don't know what to do with though!


I might make a start on my wardrobe this afternoon, I don't want to rush it though.


Have a good day everyone
Julie

Whoop! Well done Julie! I'm paid weekly and have Dr. note but still in probationary period so I think he's within his rights? Small firm btw X

Evening :hello:

Sorry I haven't been around for a bit - had relatives visiting and couldn't get to my computer!

Hope it doesn't take me too long to catch up....
