Uni: I think we have get rid of that alcoholic voice that tells us we need a mood-altering substance to get through life. Keep breaking the chains one day at a time. Since we're at the beginning of March, there are some great new "beginning anew" threads here. I'd love to see you share at the 30 day abs daily thread. It's very positive. You can do it. Keep trying. Mary

Hi Uni
I'm with you. AL is a nasty f***er!!! You are so right. It's not even a good time! And we know it's not going to be...Hey! 12 AF Days! I wish I could say that. Get right back on and good luck!

My first post. Does this reply to gethinboy's post? 5 years free!! WTG. But now it seems you need immediate focus (attention, diversion, concern)? It doesn't look like anyone replied to you. That is why I am looking for live chats but couldn't get the link to work. Is MOW on mIRC? If so what server-channel? If not all it takes is two people to start a chat anytime on an agreed place on mIrc. I like the idea because u can pledge not drink while chatting. That gets you through 1-2-3 or more hours a lot easier than sitting alone fighting the urge.

Hey there gethinboy,

5 years is major wet dream - WOW! Start your own topic/tread, let us know what is going on there are a lot of great peeps here who can help you think things through. March off to an AA meeting if things are really on fire for you - hang tough.

Welcome ric!

Screw you AL

Uni,

what my pal Al does for me:

makes me ignore what I should be doing
makes me says stupid things to people I love
makes me do stupid things in public
makes me stumble,trip,bump into things

and then...the next day

gives me horrendous heartburn and esophagitis
makes my head ache
makes my hands shake
makes me break out in cold sweats
makes my thinking fuzzy
makes me feel stupid for not being able to say 'no'

Now that I think about it...I don't think Al is such a good friend.

Screw you AL

Lefty - OMG you are so right........

Al is soooooooooo not a good friend to have.

Thanks for the perspective!

Screw you AL

I with you

Hi, I visited here about 6 months back but then strayed. It's so reassuring to hear other posts, knowing you are feeling exactly the same as me. I'm just starting (only ever managed 5 days AF). I function ok during the day, have four children under 11, a very busy life, but I know this is the turning point. If I don't get a perspective on it now, it's downhill from here. You are all so right, al is never our friend. Why can't we refuse a drink on this basis? What is it about us that makes us crave that very short-lived temporary buzz just to feel like s**t the next day and WE KNOW WE WILL FEEL IT!! I'm ANGRY with it now, and I think that's going to be my strength. How dare it control me like it has!!! I'm with you guys all the way (although I'm scared......) I'm doing it cos I want to be healthy and around to see my grandchildren, I am doing it because I want to be the best mum I can be, not snappy and tired all the time. I'm doing it for me, cos I should love myself and I deserve better. Here's to a new beginning......3 days today - LR :thanks:
