Not doing so good.

Drank the past 2 nights. I did wait a little later than my usual drinking time.
Hubby is still supportive. Im starting to feel pretty down about this. I want to stop and I know I should stop but dam its hard. I havent been getting hammered and I havent been all crazy and emotional like before. So I guess that is a good thing.

Sounds like you got your foot in the door - now you just need to drag the rest of your body on through with you!

It's great that your husband is being supportive of you! Keep talking to him - it'll help (along with letting us know how your doing). Your right, it is damn hard but at least you realize you have a problem and are trying to do something about it!

Best wishes to you!

Ditto what AA said. Just don't ever get discouraged. I'll put my money on it that everyone here didn't have it easy the first time they tried to quit!

Hi Daisy.
Like AAthlete says...It's hard. Try and not feel too down on yourself. It's harder to get back up if your feeling down.
Good luck!
Hi SeaBreez. Posted at the same time as you. I sure didn't find it easy. Sometimes I still don't.

Keep going Daisy my chicklet...you sound as though whatever you are doing is working at some level...even if it's not quite the one you were expecting....it really is try and try again, until you are happy with the results. It's taken me YEARS to finally feel happy with my attitude and behaviour with regard to alcohol, but i just keep going...

Opening AAthletes door for you, and hauling you in xxx:h

Hi Daisy,

Please don't be hard on yourself, you're going in the right direction so you should be proud of yourself by my reckoning.....

Keep taking the baby steps and you'll get there in no time....

Love & Hugs to you, Paula :h :l :h :l

Daisygirl,
Yep, it is hard in the beginning, but if I can do it, you can do it. I don't even have any support - my husband is still drinking. How hard is that.
Whenever I hear the ice cubes tinkling in his glass, I now don't say "drink", I say "Jingle bells, jingle bells lalalalalala" you know what I mean.
I can guarantee you that you will fall on your face again, but the idea is to dust yourself off and start all over again. And don't say "back to day one", no, it is a process, a road that you must go along and that means that there are rocks you will trip over.
You can do it.
