    Brilliant to hear Tony - a true example of someone changing their whole life up for sobriety - you are an example to all who think sobriety just arrives on a plate xxx

          It does for probably all of us Mary and as it increases our emotional development and resilience decreases with it I would imagine. I look at some of my reactions (usually in my head thankfully) to stuff and when I can review them rationally, they can be considered that of a truculent teenager

          Nice work Tony. Changing your whole life that is a tall order and you are nailing it.

          Molls I am so jealous of you being on a weekend away. I am writing a bloody essay !

              Hello peeps.

              Y'know, for the first time since i cannot mind when, I slept the whole night through without waking once. Normally up at 2am/3am for a trip to the toilet.. and sometimes lie in bed thereafter for a it wishing i'd drop back to sleep instantly. but last night, read turned light out at 10.30pm and didn;t wake until my alarm when off at 5 - only for me to turn it off pronto and have another hours kip. That run must've taken it out of me.

              Still feel it today...

              Thanks all for the thoughts re emotions - [MENTION=22456]starty[/MENTION], i mind something similar being said to me, maybe by Kuya, when i quit in 2013. Had forgotten about it until you mentioned it there. Hmmm... perhaps i have been stunted emotionally. But as Molls says - chicken and egg - but... yeah, i think there have been things that make me emotionally not as "mature" as what one might expect for a eejit of my age, but dunno whether those things exacerbated the drinking (i liked the numbing effect, as well as the association of drinking in social situations) or whether drinking exacerbated any stunting of emotional maturity... Yet... i sometimes think i must have an emotional quotient that is better than my intellectual quotient, but perhaps not. Perhaps i confuse empathy/reading others with emotional maturity? Maybe i'm just a bit too sensitive?

              Sunday musings when I should be reading and prepping...

              Laters -

                        Not sure whether to say good morning or good evening.
                        Haven't been sleeping at all well.........actually I am sleeping but at the oddest of times....... even for me. I blooming hate January and this January's been a doozer and can't wait to see the back of it.
                        I'll have a proper read back tomorrow or later today.
                        It could be worse, I could be filing.
