I started the MWO program (hypno cds and supplements) a week and a half ago, but continued drinking through the first 8 days. On day 7, i picked up the MWO book again and read that if I wasn't taking an anti-craving supplement, I could try more Kudzu - so I did - the maximum dosage recommended and the next Monday, I didn't drink. I also re-read the directions for the hypno cd and was more intentional about thinking about goals before I started listening.
So here I am at day 4 - it feels like it has been such a long time since I had a drink. Last night I came home from work late and my spouse had opened a bottle of wine that had just arrived from our favorite winery. I thought about it for several long minutes, and decided not to have any. Today I came home proud that I had not stopped at the liquor store and found a bottle of wine outside the door - I think from one of my neighbors - one who I often borrow wine from when it is too late to buy any.
I don't feel like drinking right now, but I am scared. Will I really be able to keep this up? I am not planning to be AF forever, but I did note that it is recommended to be AF for 30 days. I do feel good and it has been great to remember what it is like to not drink. I will be reading more here to keep me going.
Thanks for listening
