Day 1 tomorrow (again)

[Jewels83]

Drank some wine today. Got a few chores done but pretty much wasted away the day. As I was losing my buzz this afternoon and having no more wine left, it crossed my mind to take a few sips of vanilla extract. Glad I didn't but that kind of thing shouldn't even be crossing my mind. I'm tired of this. Back to work tomorrow and day 1.

Wish me luck my MWO friends!!! xxx

Good luck, I think aslong as we keep picking ourselves up & dont give up we are on the right way, I think its when you give up that AL has won, so good on you for getting back in the saddle!!!

Pick yourself up Jewels and have another go - it does get easier but you have to be firm with those nagging voices in your head. Treat yourself to a nice non Al drink and have it during the times you would normally be drinking

Hey jewels. Good that you are trying. Stick with it. It took me years till I managed to quit for this length of time. Even now i have to be careful not to give in to tempatation.

I am intrigued why you would drink vanilla extract? Isnt that a sweet liquid? Best of luck. x

Thank you all for your support as always. :thanks: I'm so thankful to have someplace to go to talk to people who can relate to how I'm feeling.

Today is day 2!!! Already having a rough morning at work due to some more drama between me and my ex again the last couple of days. I get to come to work everyday and have to look at his lying, pathetic face. It makes me want to puke.

Anyways, one day at a time. :l

Vanilla is something like 35% alcohol content. If you google it online, there's plenty of reading on it. I've never tried it and thank goodness I did not let myself drop to that level the other day. :l rebirth!

jewels Lol. I never knew that! Gonna have a look when I get home.
I did um and ah as to whether I should buy a herbal remedy called Bach as it contains flower essence and brandy, 27% alcohol it says. I was worried that it may trigger me to buy the real stuff but I bought it anyways and I have had it for six weeks and not drank the whole bottle. It does taste like alcohol though.
I try not to eat anything with alcohol content but sometimes its just a reflex...The other day I bought rum and raison fudge... didnt realise till it was too late.
