FULL MOON - stand firm!!

Ha! Well i found this moon a real doooozy! I can relate so much FMS and all.. my worst time EVER is just prior to the full moon when i have pmt/pms.. so it's a real build up! I was so out-of-it this time I did not even know what the hell was happening.. only that i was barely functional and mostly brain-dead.. till I found this thread last night, and realised.. thank god that the worst of it was over.
Prayers to anyone who is still recovering as I am!
And well done Lunapro!! Am admiring your strength!!

Back Again To Day One!

Hi I have been coming on this site on and off foe a few years. Unfortunatly always drifted back to the booze. But back again today I am sick and tired of the hassel drinking causes me , the liying trying to cover up my drinking the blackouts the hangovers the feelings of self loathing and hatred that i am so weak and drink , to man a few of the things. So today is a new day want to try again ! at least i never give up trying to give up ! if i ever do that i really will give up !!!!! Could do with some words of wisdom support from all you lovely people on here . I want to AF there is no middle ground for me and want to come out from under the cloud of fear that alchol bring to my life. Got many reasons to quit drinking got two great kids a fantastic new partner who has shown me what happiness really is ( had to get to my 40's) to experience happiness and i don't want drinking to ruin it. So wish me luck on my journey to day one .

Daisy-doo (love your name, by the way).. we have all have more day 1's than I think we care to admit. You never know which one will click, so just never give up. Hold that happiness and allow it to generate strength within you. You can do this... Good luck!

LunaPro - Way to go! That took a lot of strength! Seriously!!!

FMS - Thank you again for this very cool thread! And I love your thoughts. I think these are definately reflective times, and certainly the kind of in-your-face, reflective times, like you said! But, if we can bust through that illusionary wall that we put up and sit with those feelings, then actually act on them, it can be a magnificent time for growth.

I actually did sit this morning in meditaiton and do the meditaiton outlined in my earlier post. it was remarkable. It was really good for me to sit and actually write out those things in my family that have disempowered me, and then sit and write out what I really want my family life to look like from this day forward. It is really a special time for me to do this as I am in the midst of real change in regards family structure. I can actually put up a wish list! I can start from scratch, from that blank piece of paper I wrote on this morning. It felt really, really good.

Well, this moon is fading and now we can take what we learned and our POSITIVE affirmations through to the NEW Moon February 8th. The power of positve thinking - I am starting to believe!!

Namaste,

MM

MM - good on you! I am certainly having a day of such journaling and wrting and....well, my poota keys are HOT!!!!!

Daisy-doo...welcome. I hope you find what you need here as so many of us have....it is good to meet you and I look forward to reading more of your story.... Just remember IT IS POSSIBLE AND FOR YOU TOO.

Lunapro - WELL DONE!!! I am soooh glad this thread helped! And I can certainly vouch for cocoa with whipped cream! That there whipped cream saved my sanity for months! (Still does at times!....a non-inebriating comfort!!) That is a great thing you did - YEA!

Right, back to tapping away madly! Happy end of moon ladies!! Um, yup, TMI probably but there's a lot of 'on' going on just now....me too! But that is why we have a 28 day cycle that so often fits in around the full moon....just a bugger though eh??!!

Love to all...
Finding My Self....still and it's good!
