Giving Up/Cutting Down Alcohol Thread Part 17

@alt80 well done, just keep one day at a time. I find that the over the counter sleeping tablets usually help me sort my sleeping pattern out when it gets messed up. If your being strict and not wanting to take sleeping pills you could try herbal supplements like valerian and 5htp both from health food stores.... always consult your pharmacist/health food store staff. Good luck 👍

Wasn't going to drink tonight but my wife had some home brew off her friend that was half drunk so had a couple of glasses. I didn't realize how strong it was until I got up to go to the loo and my legs went bandy. Oh well start again tomorrow still plenty of month left ot hit my target. It's the first time I have sunday drunk for ages. not looking forward to tomorrow morning, still on 4.

Going to say 8/26 early for me today, no plans for a drink and don’t want it so leaving it. Thinking going forwards that’s what it needs to be - a treat only and tbh if I find that it’s making me slip back into the other habit probably need to knock it on the head completely. Never really had a problem with drink so shouldn’t be an issue but tend to get bad cravings for the other stuff if I’ve had a few drinks so doesn’t help.

@xxlalxx thank you. I sporadically take the herbal sleeping pills. Bit better night last night slept through 1/7ish so not as bad.
