    Doing so well, but then...

    I'm so upset with myself, I had my first major setback on Sat and Sun night. I had been doing so well with the campral, this forum, the supps but it all went down the drain last night.

    I've been doing mods and it really has been working, but I drank way too much on Sat night and started drinking again Sunday afternoon because I had a huge anxiety attack. My wife was in and out of the house on sunday so like any good drunk I was able to binge while she was away. She didn't know what I was doing and I din't have the heart to tell her because she's been so proud of me lately.

    Please tell me some of you have had slip ups and were able to get back on your feet. I know some of you have, it would just be great to read your posts.

    -Andy

    PS The good news: I have zero desire to drink tonight, so this should make for a good week.

    Oh Andy,
    I am so sorry you arent happy with yourself right now. But I will tell you that I have definitely experienced what you are experiencing and I was able to climb right back on board and get back on track. In fact, it took me quite a few times before I got to where I am now. Dont dispair - this thing is hard! We are here for you.
    Hugs

      Yes, Andy you are not alone. I am still disappointing myself at times but making progress, as it sounds like you are. Focus on what you have accomplished and move on from there. You can do it.
      I'm really easy to get along with once people learn to worship me

        thanks. feels good to read your posts. I am nervous about continuing the kudzu because it might have been giving me anxiety or low blood sugar. I think I'll take today off considering I have no desire to drink. I am having bad anxiety now. Time to get up and do something. Will be back later.

          It would be comforting if it was a nice, sequential, orderly path, but it doesn't seem to be.

          You might try the Calms Forte for the anxiety - the GABA works really well for me too.

          If at first you don't succeed (and few people do) ...

          Hang in there.
