ach... feck... jist don't know what to do right now with it all... i mean, folks had WAY more to drink than me at thanksgiving party on thursday... but then as soon as i allow myself to drink at social events, then it quickly allows itself to be a private thing also... so i thinks maybes its more simples to not drink at all...
and then thinking about crimbo and new year and i sees no way out... even whether i want a way out... got a very loud voice saying "NOW NOW ARSEY, YOU JUST WAIT TILL THE YEAR OF OUR LORD, 2013... THAT WOULD BE A GOOD TIME TO GIVE UP. AS FOR JUST NOW, CARRY ON AS BEFORE..."
I think Molly mentioned about the first month... when i first arrived here, i did that actually relatively easy. There was a strong will power to give this a go. And now it's not so strong... almost like, well I've done it now, so i can go back to it (being AF) whenever i want... EVERYTHING is an excuse right now. And this time of year sure as hell aint helping. Dark and cold nights seem to call out for warm bars and hot toddies.
And wondering whether I'm a fraud here. Perhaps it aint that bad. Me and the bottle. Maybes we are ok. Maybes we can still make it work. Maybes we can patch it up. We had a wee trial separation and now we can get back together again, yeah? You and me, babe...
I don't know... maybe i am still too new.... still grappling with my relationship with AL... still thinking about it... weighing up the pros and the cons.... feck. Sorry troops.
As you were.
(fecking eejit goes and brings the tone down!)
I needed to come here, which is what I did, for the support of me friends here :h
The relationship with al is a devious deception - I'm in the grip too !!!
Oh gawd, I'm not the best for advice at all - but please keep close - without the army, I might not even be here today :upset:Trying again from 22nd September 2014 Keeping it simple. Keeping it real.

Get back in the saddle for now and work at a plan for making this Christmas - a week at most - ? less alcohol fuelled.
Then you will be set up for 2013 and get a great run at it ?

Now then. That's the syndrome called.........IMNABAT syndrome. (I'm Not As Bad asThem). Them that drank more tha you prolly felt really shabby on Friday not full of remorse, guilt, shame etc.
Think you've answered you own question bloody sight easier not to bother. TBH after the others have had one or two they couldn't give a flying fox what you're drinking.

And don't ever, ever think you're bringing the tone down. It's what we do best. The Army swings from food porn to serious in a heart beat. I doubt there's one person here who hasn't had your thoughts and if they haven't IMHO there's something wrong with them.It could be worse, I could be filing.

Now if I was to say what a jolly good idea, you'd look at me as if I'm insane. So I'm not going to say what a jolly good idea. December is December. Cold, dark, miserable in the Northern Hemisphere. Hot, light and sunny in the Southern Hemisphere. What I'm trying to say is we'll find a need/excuse/reason. to drink where ever we are. We'll find an occasion to drink. My birthday, your birthday, Christmas, New Year, New Years Day, getting me socks on the right feet, finishing a pile of ironing, it's FRIDAY!!!!.
A fraud, noooooooooo. You sort out help from an on-line forum. Spoke out about your problems. Made us laugh. A fraud I don't think so. Hate to say this out loud but you've got a problem. I'll put a hug here.:l I hate being a bit harsh.

Thank you Questy, Jackie, Benji... Much appreciated. Need to keep reading here. And maybe asking lots of Q's...
Feckin' booze.
I read something on MWO yesterday about being ruled by a bottle - the power that bottle (s) or cans or whatever has over us. To be ruled by inanimate objects - madness when yer think about it ! I drank too much on Friday - I was pished plain and simple - I did it, and acted irrationally through it ! And I have kids in the house
RC - I'm going to struggle but if I don't sort it n?w, I might not be here much longer, cos if there's one thing I'm learning after all these years, is that if it doesn't kill yer one way, it'll kill yer another. Sorry to be a bit maudlin, that's for my benefit as much as yours xxxTrying again from 22nd September 2014 Keeping it simple. Keeping it real.
