OH YOU STUPID COW!!!!
And that by the way is me. 15 DAYS SOBER!!. then without warning, well there must have been warning signs but I did not see them. Or hear them, maybe I did but ignored them. I bought two bottles of wine. First one diluted with lemonade, it is christmas after all I heard my devil say. Then The kids figured it out, I got defensive and they went shopping and so did I for my next bottle of wine and then I came on here. Privately emailed the wonderful cymru, cos I like cymru. But came on here to say it is not an easy feat. It should be, but it is not. The slightest thing can push us over the edge and I know that I have done so well up to now but I just went awol. I really hate the word alcoholic, it seems to grate with me. Do I have to call myself that?? I am so weak and a failure, I even heard my devil saying moderation. Go for moderation drinking not total abstinence, cos you can't do that. One day is all I want. I do feel very tired. Tired of dealing with people I do not want to deal with. Tired cos all I do is work and I am tired. Just exhausted. Had I been a rich person I would spend christmas in the priory, but I am not. I am me. oh why did i do it?Tags: None

OK Maddy, good that you are back. So... what did you learn about the "voice" that tells you that you should be able to drink moderately?
It is essential, if you want to stop drinking, to stop listening to that "voice" and to all the arguments your alcohol-addicted mind will give you about why it might be OK to drink.
It doesn't matter at all whether you use the word "alcoholic." What does matter is that you get it firmly into your head that drinking will destroy everything you hold dear.

OH YOU STUPID COW!!!!
aCTUALLY WIP DRINKING IS NOT THE WORST OF MY PROBLEMS. IT IS A RESULT OF MANY BI PRODUCTS. BUT WHAT I LEARNT IS THIS. THAT I DO NOT WANT TO DRINK. I FEEL DIRTY AND BLOATED. I FEEL SAD THAT I SUCCUMBED. I LOVE THE IDEA OF CHRISTMAS AND ME I WANT THE BIG PARTY AND LOVE FLYING AROUND. REAL WORLD IS THAT I HAVE TO DEAL WITH FOLK I WOULD RATHER LEAVE UNDER THE STONE. MAYBE I HAVE TO BE HARDER ALL ROUND.:thanks:
ME AND MY IDEAL WORLD SCENARIO. I HAVE TO GET A GRIP. LIFE CAN BE SHIT, BUT I SEEM TO ALWAYS WANT TO SMELL ROSES. THEN WHEN IT SMELLS FOUL. I BAIL OUT INSTEAD OF BEING A STRONG BITCH. SO TODAY WAS BAD, TOMORROW IS A NEW DAY. I TAKE THE LAST TWO WEEKS AND A DAY WITH ME AND USE THEM. THAT IS WHAT I LEARNT AND WIP I AM GLAD U ARE STILL AROUND.

OH YOU STUPID COW!!!!
Hi hun. You are NOT a stupid cow or a failure. You're HUMAN!!! Remember that! Isn't it GREAT that you did 15 days without drinking.... If you were not doing this program you would have drunk those 15 days. Just start again. You'll never fail as long as you keep trying. Hell, i've been doing this for god knows how many months and i'm still screwing but i'm not like i used to be and NOR ARE YOU! Look at yourself NOW, look at what you WERE.... now sit there and think. You've come so far and you're NOT a failure. You're a GREAT STRONG person!
This time of the year is really hard, what with all the christmas parties, every bar, pub, restaurant filled with people drinking, every tv show showing people drinking, being happy can also trigger it. Being tired was/is my main trigger. I feel it'll pick me up and keep me going all night *lol* what a joke!
Brush it off and try again!

Maddy, you are not stupid hun, I think you are very brave, you just hit a bump in this road called sobriety. You are learning your triggers and learning how to cope with them. Its not easy but its possible as you can see. Stick with us over christmas and we can all help each other through.Living now and not just existing since 9th July 2008

Hey Maddy,
How cool of you to have done 15 days then come on here straight away for support AND to have recognized that being tired is one of your triggers. Not only are you an organized person, you apparently are a very intelligent one.
I hope you have a wonderful Christmas. You sound determined and better already. It's so good to hear from you.
Take care, :l
