            A 7.5 day pact

            I would love to join you all, too! I am starting right now. Had a drink earlier, but not enough to even get a buzz.

            I'm like you, Maise, I don't think twice about breaking a promise to myself, but I certainly wouldn't want to let anyone else down.

            I'm not in a good place right now and blocking the world out with a couple of bottles of wine sounds SO nice. However, I know when I'd wake up from passing out there will still be the same mess waiting for me........

                Help With the Time

                I know people are posting from all over the world (how cool is that!?!). I'm having trouble keeping up with days and times. So for this 7.5 day pact, when does it end? Am I too late to join?? I'll just start from this moment commit to a week. I hope that's in the spirit of things! I'll have to get through a weekend, so that'll be a bit of a challenge. But challenges make you stronger, right??

                  Oh.. how great is this!???? :wd:

                  Welcome Foxtrott, Oney (Hugs honey), Mr. T (do NOT sneeze on me!) TakeHeart, Sooty, & Warrior... utterly splendid of you to come along for the ride!

                  Warrior... The 'pact' started yesterday, August 24th... but there's no 'too late' here... and if you need a day or two tagged on at the end.. I'm your man! Well.. woMAN, at least

                  However.... hmmmm..... *tapping foot*... where's my buddy Kimberley!??? Gotta go hunt that girl down!

                  Btw... it seems to be a common thing... the unwillingness to disappoint someone ELSE, to renag on a commitment to someone ELSE - I wonder why that is?

                    The day went ok mostly because I've made a mental shift, I think, since there was still lots of work stress, as usual. But, I came home, popped open a AF lemon drink, read all these great posts, and I'm almost as relaxed as I would have been with a glass of wine without any of the downfalls. Hopefully, the cravings are beginning to subside, like you said earlier, sunshine.

                    Also, I just heard from someone after a long stretch who keeps roping me back in emotionally with his drama, then hurting me. When under the influence, I keep getting sucked in. Being AF right now is so important so I can keep my wits about me and not make the same mistake.

                    What is that expression? The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results. I'm facing the situation AF this time!

                        Day 2 for me is a busy day, at work and home. Instead of looking at that as - how am I going to get through the day and get all this done? I am thanking God I have a job, a family that needs me at times, and the fact I will be very busy so I won't have time to drink. I am going to keep my thoughts positive today....not think about all the times I have failed and the fact I know deep down there is this nagging voice (probably my mother) saying "you can't do it, you never do, you never do anything right". I am going to think - I can do it and I will do it! It won't be easy but I will do ODAT. One of my focuses is to start looking at my life and the triggers that set me off. Enough rambling........Blessed day 2 to everyone here.

                          Busy can be a real good thing, Foxtrott!

                          How are you pacters, this fine Tuesday morning? It IS Tuesday, right? Pardon me, but I'm not entirely awake yet. Just started the coffee IV... waiting for it to kick in

                          Here's to a great AF day - let's make the most of it!

                            I'm with you on this Sunni. I'm doing 11 days from 24th. And Starty, don't ask me 'why not 12?' :H

                              Hey all, I had to put back my starting this due to being in such a mess I was scared to stop drinking. I got a home visit from my doctor yesterday who gave me a small supply of librium, so I stopped last night.

                              I am feeling awful today as I barely slept, but I am grateful to be starting back on the AF journey with you all. I don't spend enough time asking for help on here (I am not good at that), so now that Sunny has given me a kickstart with support, I will be posting ANY TIME I feel weak, so you may see a lot of me.

                              I will try to support you all as well.
