    I'm slowly getting there!!

    On the way home from work tonight got a call from an ex employee to catch up for a drink - yes I went and what was a mistake because I had a couple of glasses of wine could turn out to be good for me - I had the mandotary 2 glasses of wine for driving, then bought the bottle as you do on the way home - I just poured a glass and realised I don't want to drink anymore and tipped the whole lot away - yippee I don't want drink anymore !!! I can not face another hangover, I never want to have that first drink again, tonight I was lucky I know I am back to day 1 again tomorrow but I am going to bed tonight knowing life is going to get easier and happier, I am sure this time I am finally there, thanks to MWO and all you lovely people knowing I can come here helps so much :l:l:l:l

      Wow... that's a mighty fine big step there Panno, I was rooting for you last week but didn't see you come back to say how it went, now you are and with this amazing news.
      Nice one!

        Panno, I am so happy for you... we all have to hit our own bottom and for me it was my health. I actually felt myself dying but I too, am finally getting it!
        Thanks for sharing that and I wish you the best on your AF life-style.

              Well done. I definately wouldn't have been able to pour the bottle away. No way, i'm not that strong yet. Congrats

              My worst mistake was thinking that what i did wasn't that bad.

                  Honestly I know it sounds a cliche but without MWO and you I dont think this would have happened to me, after a really heavy 5 day binge last week I almost never returned but I did and today was day 4, but knowing I could come back no matter how many times I had slipped is such a comfort - thank you all - if only you could see me now I have a smile from ear to ear

                        OMG - that's awesome! If I'd the two glasses, that would have been IT! I'd have had myself around the contents of that entire new bottle - good job!

                          Good to hear you feeling so strong and proud!
