Hi Nics welcome and a big well done on Day 3. This will be only weekend no 3 for me and it does take a while for the old body to come to terms with the major changes.

Hi everyone and thanks Ronnie!
:goodjob:

I'm definitely in. Knowing this thread has been here over the last two weekends has been an amazing help. I had a particularly difficult day at work on Monday and all sorts of unexpected problems blew up that I had to deal with. I was so relieved that I had a clear head because I don't know how I would have dealt with them if I'd had the mild hangover I often have on Mondays or that horrible spacey, fuzzy feeling that feels like your brain has left the building.

Bring on the weekend AF party time!

Thursday morning here - I am so happy to be on day 5. My morning workout is done and now I have to haul out the trash. The recycling guys will probably be surprised at the lack of wine bottles in my bin!

Faith - good luck. You can do it! I am just starting myself and like to come and read and/or post when I feel like I want to be drinking!

Nics - great going:goodjob: Keep it up!

Ronnie, KTAB, Geico - everyone have a great AF day today!!

Can I ever relate to the relief of not having all those wine bottles crashing around in the recycling truck for everyone to hear. Once again I'm in for the weekend. Thanks for this great idea of a thread everybody.

Hi Ronnie!!! I am doing well on AF days. Don't know exact date, as I have been doing some moderate drinking too. I am so excited for the AF weekend and then some!

I didn't like the sport of baseball all that much (I will watch just because it is a sport), but my son is a natural talent. I endured many years and many games just to see him play. Cherish this time my friend.

Hope everyone else is doing well. I am looking forward to the weekend!

Bank holiday in Ireland ;o/

Morning guys,

Well today is the start of a BH over here in Ireland......renowned for 'drinkmania' lol. This is day 4 and my first weekend in about a year off the booze. Just hoping we get really nice weather which means outdoor time and no excuse to sit in a dark ould boozer! Question....yesterday I had a fit of depression and anxiety, just couldn't stop thinking about the task ahead. Went into overdrive thinking about up and coming weddings, hen parties, summer bbq's - convincing myself they will never be the same. And what about friends and such...will they look at me differently, feel weirded out about it. Any tips on how to stop being so neurotic??? Usually I'd have a drink to shut the brain up......is this normality or am I just over reacting I could do with a on/off switch think that would do the trick!

Hi Nics, well done on day 4. What your feeling is totally normal. One day at a time works for me, no point in looking too far down the line. It really is a journey to sobriety and we will go through many mixed emotions and feeling on the way. In the first week I was all over the place in my head but it does settle down in time. Have you read the MWO book and/or listened to the CDs? Some people take meds and/or suppliments. There is a thread in the monthly abstinence section called toolbox, this is jammed packed with helpful ideas and tips by people who have been there.
Hi Johno welcome to the weekend thread, nice going on the AF today, its not easy but stick close to the threads there are always people here willing to help.

im in as well, have mini marathon on mon and need to be fighting fit...especially seen as I have to carry One2many..lol! Nics, you really need to just think one day at a time, I will not drink for today, try not to think ahead , it will frighten the beejeepers out of you and it wont work. Good luck with the weekend.
