Honestly ? Can't stop being mortified over what was said on holiday. Went through all the days on hols. Some of it was true - we do drink a lot - but some was unfair and hypocritical.startingover;1443151 wrote: Morning JC
Never mind
How you feeling today Satsuma?
I was AF for 6 months - in lots of social situations & didn't miss it. Holidays to me are somehow different.
I suppose that is the last hurdle I need to cross this year somehow ?Comment

Oh Satz, me darling. That's just awful and so unfair.
Has Mr Satz, ever thought about cutting back? Tell me if I'm wrong but does his life revolve round alcohol activities?
Was he a big support when you gave up smoking as I see this as the same thing, an addiction.It could be worse, I could be filing.

No JC he wasn't. Didn't see the need at the time.JackieClaire;1443175 wrote: Oh Satz, me darling. That's just awful and so unfair.

Not all activities - but a majority. And his extended friends & family all drink.
You see he really doesn't see the harm in either I think.
Thanks for the support I appreciate it today - feeling very fragile - :upset:
Probably the bubble is burst and the game is up JC - time to make a decision for good.
So feeling a type of grieving ? Does that make sense ?
Feel I will not ever be the same person or have the same fun on hols etc !Comment

Aww Satz, I hate to see you so unhappy. Wish I could give a hug and say it will be all right. Honestly it will be all right in the end it's just getting there is the very, very hard bit. Promise.
Grieving, quite normal. Mightily pissed off, quite normal. Things will never be the same feeling, quite normal.
I was terrified when I went AF this time as it was my last chance before alcohol killed me. You'll be exactly the same person but without alcohol swilling round your body. That's why I love the way MWO called it alcohol free. That freedom from the bottle has given me all sorts of opportunities I would never have had I still been drinking.Feel I will not ever be the same person or have the same fun on hols etc !
I think I'm trying to say that drinking makes us terribly unhappy most of the time and closes our eyes to some of the crap that's out there. Not drinking while not making us happy all the time makes us realise that the crap out there we can deal with and we don't get a banging head ache either.It could be worse, I could be filing.

Did you need medical intervention / counselling - hope you don't mind me asking ?Comment

Medical intervention, more times than I'd like to think about. 4 x 10 day out patient de-toxes and Lord knows how many homes ones over 6/7 years. Apart from the last time I always though I could go back to 'normal' drinking.satz123;1443186 wrote: Thanks jC - I am keeping this post to remind me :h

Counselling, loads, but the last lot once I was AF was cracking. Funnily enough once we'd got past the drinking issue it boiled down to my issues with my mother. If I could share my lovely counsellor Tim, I would.It could be worse, I could be filing.

Feeling much better after that little chat with the lovely JC :l
AB is on board since yesterday - so it's up & at them :yay:
The game is up Satzerooney - so suck it up and get on with your life.
Mr Satz will be fine with it when he gets used to it. I think the holiday 'talk' woke him up a bit when DD makes a comment he sits up & takes notice.:H
All other comments welcome BTW

Mr JC missed his drinking buddy for a while, I can tell you that, but he got used to it and wouldn't go back to the bad old days for anything.It could be worse, I could be filing.
