THE RELIEF OF NOT DRINKING

[Kyna]

Thanks to all of you, I'm now on day 16 AF.

Making the decision to be abstinent for a while has helped. I no longer have to wrestle with a mind that prompts: will I, won't I? ad infinitum. Without this site though I think I'd still be in that dilemma.

On Saturday night I tuned in to a rather unusual feeling: relief! I actually felt relief that I wasn't drinking. It felt huge.

Just had to share that, and to tell you, all of you - that you make a difference.

Well done Kyna :goodjob: That's a great feeling.....hold on to it, and remind yourself of it if that old will I/won't I has a jab at you.

During your AF time have you been in a situation where others are drinking and you're not? That can make you feel really relieved LOL:H

Thanks to all of you for your positive responses. It means a lot to me. I have been spreading the word about this program. My D & A counsellors have been every interested in both the site, and my new resolve, and my new hypnotherapy routine. Hang in there bak310 - one foot in front of the other, and the days start to rack up. You are so right Luvuall and Flip - we are capable of anything, and yes, support truly has power. To answer, Suze, no I haven't been a in position where others are drinking -yet - but am prepared for it. I have simplified my life a lot, and am not out socialising so this helps.

And to end, Starlight, yes - how wonderful it is to feel free!

Love and light to you all,
Kyna
