13 days ago, I rid the house of all alcohol except my husband's beer and his bottle of gin. (He drinks a few beers or a couple gin and tonics once a week or so.) I told him and my daughters that I wanted to stop drinking, and to please be patient with me if I wasn't myself for awhile. I, like many of you, can not imagine life being any fun without drinking.
I decided not to take the meds, but ordered the supplements and the hypnotherapy CDs. I also made an appointment with a local family counselor who specializes in substance abuse.
Well, so far so good. 13 days AF. The first week was extremely hard, this week a tad easier. My supplements and CDs came a few days ago, so I'm hoping they'll help. My first appointment with the couselor was fine, mostly just talking my history. Tomorrow's appointment will be about setting my goals. I'm hoping to do my 30 days, then some trial and error situations to see if I can handle drinking any at all. Thanks and ttyl.
