Has rehab had any effect on your father's drinking, tips, or is it too early to say?

Hi Starty, fine thanks, no point in looking back in anger or regret for having a couple of drinks. All the old feelings are still right there, not that I expected them to go away of course but maybe dissipated a little, which is pretty disappointing. So are you looking forward to your brief trip, the weather has been lovely.

No, no point at all. They will be there, but as time goes on they just get buried a bit deeper and other stuff overides them easier (sometimes )
Yes I am very much, need to get away. Are you about on the Monday?

Hiya Reccie bear. I get you on the sleep thing. I sometimes sleep for hours for days. Then it lifts suddenly. I like it actually, I think it gives my brain a rest

We don't know, Reccie - he has broken off contact with my brother and I (he blames us...) and isn't speaking to my mom either. We get 2nd hand info from people who have seen him.

Sure am and would love to meet up again. Just thinking, if you get a chance to visit the pub on St Pats afternoon/early evening it is enough to put us off drink for life :H

:hallo: Tips, I feel a little sorry for your dad even if he did bring this on himself. It must be tough to think you are right, everyone else is wrong and the whole world is against you. But then AL does twist our thoughts and emotions.

:hallo: Reccie, you are doing so well. I hope you can see that and are feeling proud at what you are achieving.

Thanks, tabbers. I was sorry to hear about your lapse. At least you managed to stop after a couple of beers and didn't get plastered, which shows quite a lot of self-restraint. In the grand old scheme of things, a couple of beers is no big deal.....try to put it behind you quickly and start clocking up the AF days again.

Hi and bye Mrs A
