Same Old Story

[Harlequin]

Thought I was doing pretty well. Had a couple of pretty good days in a row and was feeling good about it. Then a friend came over and I was cooking and one glass of wine followed another and by the time we sat down I was slurring and having trouble stringing a sentence together. Dumb! Same old story...same old pattern. Starting all over today.

As long as you don't give up you are making progress. Use this as an example of what you don't want to happen and a learning experience. You can do this and there are many here that are living proof!!!

If it was easy, we wouldn't all be on this forum, right? You found a trigger and just need to make a plan to avoid it next time.

On of the bad parts of going AF, is that the part of you that want's to drink becomes very compelling. I never thought I was a binge drinker before I started doing AF days. But now, one little crack in that door and it swings wide open and the whole cause is lost. Some say this problem goes away over time, others say it doesn't.

Just something more to work on. Pick up and keep going. You can't change the past, but you CAN change the future.
