Thanks honey bear! Glad your feeling better. Never heard of the pink cloud before but may explain how I can go tee total for few weeks then slip when I think I've nailed it!!

Heating guy never showed up today :mad: so none the wiser what going on with boiler and I miss hot water

You guys are all doing so well, I doubt I'll make my target but will be improvement if I make double figures at least! Any way 6/14

Looking forward to hearing how fruball got on too.

13/20 for tonight. Hope Fruball posts about the hypnotherapy.

11/20 AFDs. I've got a hankering for sweets tonight, but there isn't much in.

Fruball

Thanks for thinking of me

Hypnotherapy went well. Like last time, what felt like 15 mins or so was actually an hour! Very relaxing, very nice. Highly recommend it, esp for stress. I don't feel like drinking but today would be a normal AF day anyway so will have to wait and see what tomorrow brings

The lovely lady who did it said that if I did need to go back for another session, she won't charge me

Fingers crossed this is the end of my destructive drinking :T

That sounds really positive fruball, the feeling of relaxation alone would do it for me Hope you have a chilled evening before bed and let that relaxation linger on - thanks for sharing x x

Sounds like an interesting session Fruball - is it usual to just need pne session of hypnotherapy - I confess that I know nothing about it.

Honey bear, I'm very interested in what you are saying about feeling tited for a long time after stopping drinking. I haven't had a drop since Saturday night and I ferl so sleepy and tired even though I am going to bed early.
I am AF again today so that's now 5 nights in a row. I hope I get my energy back soon!

It depends on who you go to. I saw a famous (in her field) hypnotherapist my first time and it was very expensive but extraordinarily effective and I left her house a changed person. This one is cheaper and I didn't feel like a completely changed person but I did really enjoy it and only time will tell whether it has worked.
