This is startin' to work!!

[slowly sinking]

I honestly can't believe it but this stuff is startin to work! did dose up pretty quickly, not for everyone, but in about 2 weeks? I'm up to 100mg of Topa with no side effects yet except a bit of loopiness. Got adrifinil yesterday so I'll see if that helps to counter that.

I haven't been stellar...but instead of one to two bottles of wine a night, I've either had two-three glasses over an 8 hour period, or gone several in a row AF...which can be dangerous cause that's when I start to feel good and want to celebrate.

The difference in the way I feel this morning is unbelieveable! Instead of getting my son up for school and looking at the clock...wishing for the bus to come so I can either go back to sleep, or have a drink to get over my hangover....I'm looking forward to starting my day and all my projects that I've been neglecting! Feels SO good to not be hungover!!

I know it's early on, but for the first time in years, I have hope and I pray that at least someone out there is feeling the same way I am today......

Warm hugs.....SS:l:h

Hey there akgirl! Way to go !!!! I'm in the danger zone right now...feeling good triggers thar urge to drink....let's see if the Topa stops it..that and will power. WE CAN DO THIS!!!!

Yesterday, everytime I even thought about AL I got up and did something, ANYTHING....cleaning, walking...learning a new guitar chord....the worst thing for me is to sit still.

Have a great day....HUGS.....SS

SS, Glad you are feeling great, but don't get trapped into thinking that TOPA is doing the trick, it will ultimately be YOU making the decision not to drink. The topa is just there to help you along. Your positivity will be the driving force; keep up the good work!!! Kriger
