    You know you're an alcoholic when...

    Was gonna say that Pink Angel must be a Brit...but she's a New Zealander! Many apologies, PA! (Landed at Auckland once after getting kicked off the plane and saw a beautiful sunrise. Not AL related, though...)

      You know you're an alcoholic when...

      We call them "Servo Pies" here in Oz. Usually dried up as they've been sitting in the pie warmer for a couple of days.

      What might have been is an abstraction
      Remaining a perpetual possibility
      Only in a world of speculation.

      Point to one end, which is always present. T.S. Eliot

        You know you're an alcoholic when...

        When you locked up in jail for booking into a hotel, drinking for days on end, finally going to the reception desk in your nightie and trying to pay the HUGE bill with a Medicare Card. Sad part of that story (apart from the humiliation, is that I had enough cash in my wallet to pay, just couldnt see it). aaarrrggggghhhhhh

          When you run out the back door at night to hide your AL from your partner, and forget he's torn off the steps to repair them.

          Never look down on a person unless you are offering them a hand up.

              You know you're an alcoholic when...

              When you pee your pants in the bar and have to be told that you peed your pants when you ask why she had to take the beer away.

              (It was not me thank god but it could be me someday if I didn't quit)
              I quit drinking on March 8, 2020. Taking it One Day At A Time and no more taking my quit for granted.

              Also doing it for me. I got to stay sober for me.

              Just consecrate on today and do what you can to remain sober for today and worry about staying sober tomorrow, tomorrow.

                When your partner goes to the loo upstairs and you
                dash to the drinks cabinet take a few gulps of whatever
                is open and then sit back down quickly hopefully in the
                same position so he doesn`t even know you`ve moved

                Oh dear

                Luv Flo x
                Now I lay me down to sleep, I pray the Lord my soul to keep. If I die before I wake, I pray the Lord my soul to take.

                  You know you're an alcoholic when...

                  ....when you stumble backwards into your low, triangular hip bath whilst gussy-ing yourself up to go out and get more bubbles....
                  Now you've put on a few kilos lately due to your champagne and more champagne lifestyle, and you become seemingly irretrievably wedged in there.
                  For about an hour you flail helplessly in the manner of a stranded turtle, giggling and heaving yourself around before giving up and falling asleep.

                  Several hours later you awaken with a headache and a sore arse, and launch effortlessly out of the bath.
                  If your 8 year old self met you, would they be proud?

                        I know it is not right to minimize these things, but y'all are fricking funny! (Ducks and runs away...)

                              When you drink all day on your day off work, pass out in the afternoon, wake up at 7. Have to be at work by 8am. Jump in the shower, get dressed and look outside. The sun is setting. The clock says 7:30pm.

                                When you buy the little airline size bottles of vodka, run down stairs "too pee" take swigs and hide the bottles in dirty diapers.
                                (the kicker) when your 3 year old tells you your breath smells.
                                When you're super hungover the next day and your baby still smiles at you like you're the most important person in the world.
                                If there was ever a reason to stop drinking, if not for myself, for my babies. I grew up with a drunk Dad and will vow to never let that happen to my kids. This site is so overwhelmingly powerful. Everyone is so courageous in sharing experiences. Thank you all!!
