    August- Come One, Come All

    So not worth it

    God--after 2 days AF I drank A LOT yesterday, and I feel like crap today. I am so mad at myself--it is so not worth it. I really hope that that was my final "wake up call". I feel like it could be. I felt so much better when I was not drinking. So, starting again today, and am encouraging everyone else who slipped too. Weekends are rough--but WHAT WAS I THINKING??????? Ok, have to go to work now (oh, God). I can't wait for tonight when I can put another "0" on the drink tracker and be back on track. Have a good day everyone.:upset:

            Spirit Girl, thank you so much...and for all your words of support.

            Luka...I love your penguin smacking...LOL...exactly what I needed.

            Nurse...hang in there...I am sorry you are having a hard go.
            You too No-L...stay close....we can "circle the penguins" for you!

            Day 2 for me. I am so mad at myself for drinking the other night. What a damn waste. I tried so hard to have fun too...almost pathetic really...trying to prove to myself I am not the bitter angry drunk I have become. (sadly for me I have spiralled into a drunk that allows all the resentments I have to come puking out after about..oh, eight beers :upset

            NOT fun to be...and definately not fun to be around.

            I like the idea of a thread specifically for those of trying to stay AF while our spouse still drinks, too. I know it is fucking hard. Also it does nothing for my resentment issues (I wonder why I am like that???) with my hubby. I can physically feel the hate and anger in me, when I watch him drink.

            WE can do this. This is such a great, supportive place.
            C'mon penguins...stay close....

                  Where are all the lovely penguins????? How is everyone doing. Today is day 6 without a damn cigarette---now THAT is a miracle, and today is Day 10 AF. Last night I started to really feel the itch. I have been really stressed out. I really want to hold out for at least the month of August, so I need to hold on tight. I may need to move to the middle of the pack for a couple of days.

                              SpiritGirl - I'm so sorry you've had a fall and are feeling down. But you know what. It's all part of penguindom. We splash around and tumble and keel over many times before we finally learn how to waddle. Even then it can look a bit unsteady but so long as we keep waddling, we'll be okay. There's no need to be so harsh on yourself. No one here will punish you as much as you're punishing yourself. You're not a phony, just an ordinary penguin learning to waddle. All penguins go through that. You've been there for others; now let the pack be there for you. Come right back in the centre. That's where you belong. :l

                                We have not yet met as I haven't been around for a while- no need to 'leave' anyone can come and go when they feel like it.

                                You just sound like bloody Al has done his work and got you on one of his downers but don't worry it will pass.

                                OMG why do we let him do this to us?
