6/10 please, stayed AF Saturday and Sunday. I won’t make target but hope to get an emoji at least. Not doing well in so many areas and still using a glass of wine as an escape route. Needs addressing but will have to wait until I’m feeling stronger and more balanced.Very pleased to see so many doing well though, brilliant.5

Hi everyone 👋 can I join please? I’ve been reading along for a while and know some of you from other threads.
For background, I went out for lunch and cocktails with friends on Saturday and don’t remember much after that. DS2 ‘scooped me up’ (his words) and brought me home. I can go weeks without any alcohol then once I start I’m greedy and in all honesty I don’t need to drink a lot to be under the weather - hangovers can last a few days and I hate the sluggish feelings.
For health, I’m thinking of cutting out alcohol completely until Christmas. This will be a big challenge for me as most of my friends and family drink and I’ve no doubt conversations will need to happen with some of them. I’ve got three events planned in May that I will now be driving to.
Can I go target free for May please and see how this goes?6 -
