Morning,
Wasn't an AFD last night, DS and DD wound me up so much I snapped.
It was however a low alcohol night and even DH didn't drink very much either.
Today is another day and I will try again tonight.
Have a good day everyone x0 -
another 2 afds to add taking me to 6 AFD's . I'm liking the flower for 14 afd's, I'm aiming for that.0

Morning :hello:
I was AF Monday but I'm afraid I drank last night because I was so stressed with work and dealing with my crazy family - 6 units. I hate drinking to medicate for stress.:(
Hopefully I'll do better today.
ShaggyxWhat do we do when we fall? We get up, dust ourselves off and start walking in the right direction again. Perhaps when we fall, it is easy to forget there are people along the way who help us stand and walk with us as we get back on track.0 -

9AF please Shaggy
I always tend to use alcohol to medicate for work stress
Can't remember how I managed 3 months without it now!
Your units are pretty low, so not all bad0 -
Hi all, 10 AFDs please Shaggy.
Had a right stressful day at uni, came the closest I ever come to having a full-blown row with another student. I hate group work, especially when you do all the work and other members just come along for the ride and do s0d all
Anyway, felt like a 'wine' evening but just bought some nice bread and pate instead.....and chocolate lol0 -
Hi everyone, had a good-ish day, every tear i have shed today has released a bit more tension, so worth the cry. 15 AF days, goodnight alxxx.

Didn't stay alcohol free tonight but it wasn't stress medication so was pleased. Totally understand those who do. Have been doing it for years. Think I drank about 3 units tonight but it felt 'normal'.
Hope to stay AF tomorrow as driving to and from sons drama practical exam.
Good luck to you all.
Kind regards
