    Ordering supplements question

    Big cravings yesterday maybe now I just don't think of wine so often & when I do it's more intense?
    I had 2 glasses of wine with dinner so on a 2nd day 19.
    This is still an enormous improvement however.

          thanks Sam. Oh gosh, feeling really bad about myself. I had a terrible conversation with my mom and things just went down hill from there. i am not giving up. i told my husband 'this is it, i am done so don't talk to me about 'a glass of wine' cause it is not an option anymore. anyhow, so now it is after 9:30 so I am in the clear for today. looking at day 2 (total 20 days without wine) tomorrow and wanting to be liberated too.
          i am still reading Carr's book by the way and listening to the hypno CD.
          I am going to say something stupid (just so you are ready) : i keep falling asleep while listening to the CD, but I am not sure if I am asleep or hypnotized? haha... ( i warned you i was gonna say something stupid!!)
          when i wake up I am more relaxed then usual and feel pretty good, but maybe that is because I had a nap? hahaha... oh god, I can really be silly!! And how I am I suppose to know if this is working??

            I think the thing about the cd's is to just let it happen however it is happening. Some things can be very below the surface. Falling asleep is not a bad thing. I'd say you are very relaxed and maybe it just seeps in while you're asleep. At the very least you're getting a good nap! The whole process, for me anyway, was to reprogram myself in to accepting that people can and do drink booze. I cannot because I don't have the capability to stop once it gets going. It is hard for someone else that does not have this problem to truly understand, but that's just the way it is! Once I accepted this reality, it actually became a lot easier, I wasn't fighting trying endlessly to have my last drink, but I did have to have quite a few very painful hangovers and medical issues to get to that point. NOW I don't have the medical issues and I don't have any hangovers and I don't have the collar of guilt.

            All this is such a good even steady feeling, and I really enjoy being sober, I mean I really like it! It is a hell of a lot better than feeling like crap!! AND I bet that you'll get there as well. The process at the end of Carr's book is really very good but you should read it all the way through.

              Yeah, I know what you mean about feeling better. Even if I've been a little on and off since the last week of October I am still feeling a lot better.
              Much more clear headed this morning too and enjoyed the gym more.
              Off to the studio, lots to do today. Will check in later, feel optimistic again that I will give myself this gift of a clear mind!

                "The gift of a clear mind", I like it! I'll have to keep that stashed away for when/if the urge resurfaces.

                    Glad it was a good day for you, get through the next day and you'll be doing better. Every day is a good day. It just sometimes has its moments and then moves on.

                      Hi Eloise - glad to see that you are staying busy. Having too much time on my hands has always been my downfall, so I try to plan ahead. I really love listening to hypnosis CDs - the one I have from MWO and a wide assortment that I have downloaded from the Internet. I know exactly what you mean. Sometimes, I feel like I sleep through them, but I always wake up feeling calmer. I think they are working on a subconscious level. So see...not silly at all. xx
                      Everything is going to be amazing

                        This is my first experience with hypno CDs & yes I do wake feeling more relaxed.
                        Overall my sleep is better since I started with the supplements/cd.

                        Gotta keep in my Sam that these cravings do pass, often doesn't feel like it.

                            Thanks Sam- I did okay today & the danger time of day has passed. Very cold & rainy now- lots of things to figure out but at least I am sober. No small accomplishment.
                            Hope you are doing fine too.

                              Dutch class today.
                              Oh what fun. Slept early & well though, what a blessing!
                              Day 4 today & it will be another busy one.
                              Listened to cd again last night, really think it is at the very least helping me to sleep more restfully.

                                Somehow I missed that you were in the Netherlands? Went to Amsterdam in the 70's. Very pretty area.
