  • Please can I join the December challenge? Really starting to struggle not to drink every night! I'd like to set a target of 9 for the rest of the month - I just want to drink Xmas and NY eves.

    Thank You.

    Thanks shaggydoo, ill have a look. Thankfully the anxiety disappeared on day 6.

    I am now 10 days AF so happy to join Dec. Still not sure what my target is. Lets say 16
  • 17/28 please

    Tommorow work drinks so not AF but planning on drinking very little, coming home with all my things and most of my money, with no headache, feeling good for the rest of the night will no paranoia, no falling over, no saying anything stupid, too reavealling/regrettable, or job wrecking.

    Then Friday morning will be able to remember everything that I did and said and will not be suffering or poorly.

    Declaring early for tonight on 11/12 please Shaggy.

    May not hit target until in-between Christmas & New Year now as I have works party tomorrow night and then we are in to the thick of it - might manage a couple more after Boxing Day ;)

    If I don't get a chance to get back on I wish you all a very Happy Christmas :xmastree: - this thread is a great support and has helped me to keep on track with my alcohol consumption :)
