          She is a darling, Zeps. Don't you just love it when they're at that age when they wake up every morning without a care in the world.

                Hi quest, pleased to meet you. I have come limping back to the barracks today too. I don't know the answer to why we do it, but we do know what to do to stop. If it's any consolation I know exactly how you are feeling tonight.

                How long had you managed before you slipped? It's not too late, just put it behind you and move forward. Don't let it turn into a major blowout.

                :l.

                      Hi quest, something KTAB said earlier really struck a chord with me, it was about being prepared to work at getting sober, I think he's spot on. We gotta work at it.

                      There aren't any magic answers, no tricks, just slog and keeping on doing it. I know from longer sober episodes I've had that it does get better.

                      Were your work ok about you phoning in sick today?

                          hiya again - Wouldn't let me back into MWO - will see if this works -
                          Quest - I think we all feel for you as we have all been there or are still there now - I was lucky as I was mostly self employed but did get sent home from my bar job because I was drunk - looking back it was when I first found this place (so august 2008). You have to be more determined than the alcohol - but it does get easier as the sleepless nights and horrid feelings go away and then it just becomes a mental battle (I shouldn't say 'just' - that isn't the right word) but it is so worth it.

                          That night in 2008 I as I lay sulking in my bed - cursing the bosses for sending me home - I thought I have two choices - to carry on and wind up lonely and dead in my bed OR sober up and get on with life - luckily I chose the latter and now I have my wee girl and have spent four lovely years with all the army.
                          It's time I put my big girl pants on. :grannypants: I hope they fit.

                              hey - that worked - right I'll keep going and then I will bid you all good day.

                              You have to not look at alcohol as your friend - as it certainly is not! Perhaps it is because I am a stubborn SOB but I saw giving up al as a battle that I was determined to win and when I felt cravings I would tell my self that I was not going to let alcohol push me around. I know it's a cliche but it truely is one day at a time. Celebrate getting through the day with a treat - something to look forward to that isn't alcohol - mine was icecream spiders (or sodas?) and big FAT icecream soda's at that.

                              good luck - we are all here for you

                                I know I need to work at it harder - I've faffed and procrastinated long enough !! I cannot keep doing this though - and I don't want to either. It's a new year - I want to change. And I'm prepared to do anything to do it
