That's not a bad sign. Many people report not being able to sleep when AF as they've relied on booze to help them nod off.:)
No plans for me to drink today. This week I should get to target and then next week's a bonus.:D
8 AFDs please Shaggy.0 -

Can I join in please? tonight will be my 3rd af day and I am looking to drink very little until the end of the month. I normally have a drink every evening but I want to stop as it's a habit I've got into. I am aiming to go sober for October.
Any tips for not indulging would be most welcome. I don't like the dark evenings and a drink is nice once I've pulled the curtains.
Thanks
Gintot
Welcome - do you want to set a target for September or go target free?What 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 -
