    SCARY THOUGHTS

    Hi

    I started thinking yesterday about drinking Friday evening! NOOOOO---

    I was thinking the bf will be gone, and people at work will be at the pub at 5, and maybe that's a good idea. LOL

    I went straight to my antabuse, took one and breathed a sigh of relief. I could have not taken it, but I am not going there. I am not doing more damage. And reading stuff here
    helped me make that decision.

    Thanks you everyone for being here and so consistent in support

    SCARY THOUGHTS

    Dick Head is the most cunning opponent there is, I believe. How could we EVER entertain the possibility of drinking again after all it has done to us? That is the power of addiction! It happens to all of us! Out of nowhere! You did exactly the right thing in coming here and getting online. There is a world out there telling us it is ok....and it is for many people, but NOT for us. I'm so proud of you, Ann. This is exactly what this site is for! Reinforcement and support! Hang in there with us. We are all fighting that same beast and winning with every NO, HELL NO, we give him!
    Hugs dear lady....Byrdie

      Hi, Ann

      My brain also went haywire yesterday. Shows we just have to stay on top of this!!

      Sometimes I think of backing off MWO a bit and then something happens and I realize I just need to chill out and continue doing what has been working ... Hanging tight with all of you!

          They definitely come out of no where. I have to be on my guard constantly. It can get quite exhausting, but worth it!

            If I wasn't motivated already, Minstar's story in the NN about relapsing after ~17 mo AF (while she was mostly away from MWO) gave me a sharp kick in the rear. I really appreciate people sharing what happens to them - good and bad. Thanks, Minstar and all the best to you!

              excellent ac!

              a thought is just a thought, we don't have to drink just because we think about it. it passes and we move on with LIFE!

                Ann!

                Good job on taking the AB. I had a really BAD day yesterday and my mind wandered to "what if I just have a couple...." Yeah well, I've never had a COUPLE in my entire life. A couple 6 packs maybe...a couple of DUI's definitely...but never just a couple drinks!

                I am NOT going back to that feeling ever again, no matter what happens in my life. Waking up at 3am with sweats and anxiety. I took 2 AB's yesterday just to ensure that I do NOT go back there...ever!

                Stay strong my friend...you're makin' us proud!

                  Hi Ann Carolina - well done for not giving in and thank goodness for AB!

                  I have discovered there is a morning me (positive, up beat, loving the AF life) and an evening me (maybe I could have just a few drinks at the weekend, one or two won't hurt etc). Luckily I take AB in the morning so by the time the evening me kicks in it's too bloody late to do anything with the drinking thoughts and I'm back on track in the morning!!:H
                  Never put off to tomorrow what you can achieve today!
