    Good one Softy! I hear you, the relief is overwhelming it is like a drug in itself to have control over your actions. I am on day 5 today. I bought petrol the other day without shaking and being unable to use a card I am taking my son shopping today and will make purchases and walk around without having to stop and sit because it is all overwhelming. I have control now and will not let this feeling go.

    Kaza good work with getting to day 4 you are chasing me mate stay on the journey together and we will be just fine.

    :welcome: Patrice this is the place to start the people are awesome, friendly and so supportive, if you want to know anything its here.

    cheers all i am off to have the best weekend - AF - because it will be the first in so long. :l to you all

      Yay!! Softy!!

      Well done you, here's to a fab un-hung weekend with a great Monday feeling as oppose to the usual crappy fuzzy head. My God it does feel good. Day 4 is a bummer, it caught me out many a time! But yep, each one after is just brill !

      I adore MWO for how much it inspires us all to slay this beast. I am going to dig out and dust down Mr Carr, I was too drunk to read it last summer.

      Heres to the AF weekend


      :happy:

        Hi MyHappyPlace

        Congratulations, I am now on Day 5. I can really identify with the hands shaking - if people commented I used to say it was the meds I was on - I used to have to have a few drinks before going out to stop the shakes, if that was not possible I only went shopping with hubby and had him sign his card, although he never commented (beautiful man). Now I too can kiss goodbye to that aspect of things. Had a bit of a fright about an hour ago, started to feel nausea and shaking, had me worried, then I realised I had been up for hours flying around doing things and hadn't had anything to eat, so sat down and had a yoghurt, feel really good again now. It's been a long time since I was up early and flying around doing things I might add, usually in bed until late just because of the night before, so this is very exciting for me. Have a great day and keep up the good work, let's talk again soon.

          Hey Kaza

          Didnt see this first, have sent you a post under your original thread. I am going to stick to newbies nest for a while as I am losing track of where I am - early alzheimers??? anyway mate look out for me there and under your thread too. Chasing day 6, ditto for me today too, running around and forgot brekky and got a bit short with mr h so we pulled ourselves together came home and ate! Yay!

          Cooking this afternoon, without a wine glass attached to my hand will be interesting, but sooo much better than not remembering what you ate dont you reckon? anyway have a great day/night - where the hell are you? We might have to buddy each other I think, will investigate... ps lost a message i sent thru to you earlier so if it turns up - i am not strange just technically challenged!

            Week 3 day 21

            Apolgoies for the weekly self congratulation but today is three weeks to the day (to the very hour as I type) since I last drank alcohol. For someone like me developing a real problem this is a major achievement. I had reached the stage of hiding bottles of vodka and scotch around the house to supplement the "normal" drinking that I would do in front of the wife. Christmas was a write off and depression fuelled drink and drink fuelled depression and so on and so forth. This was only going one way and that was a bad place indeed. Thanks to the support and kindness of the people on here I have accepted my problem and sought help. :thanks: :h:h:h

                Celebration time....

                It is Mrs Softy's birthday today and we have just finished a lovely chinese takeaway. She has a bottle of champagne in the fridge, next to it is a bottle of Diet Pepsi for me! This is such a new experience, makes it feel like a new life and a new exciting way to celebrate. Logging off now as it is time to get her drunk then take advantage!!!:bday7::sendinglove::::devil::devil:
