A little thought which may help someone

[wine is not divine]

I just remembered something I read which helped enormously when giving up cigarettes many years ago and will now apply the same thought to AL when it tries to tempt me. It relates to when you may have a problem say emotional, at work, with the kids, whatever .. and you suddenly feel the urge to have a few glasses to "deal with" it...

Before you pick the glass up and give in think

"I have ONE problem right now ... if I pick up this AL, I will then have TWO."

Hope my weird mindset helps someone else :H

Love the thought, it made me think , picking up a drink gave me a whole lot more than two problems. ! its never an answer.

Me too....too many to count....but most of caused by the same thing! I remember I laughed at a line on The Simpsons once, where a very drunk Homer drawled out "Alcohol...the cause and solution to all of lifes problems"....how true...yet the solution becomes the cause, and so the cycle begins. Who'd of thought The Simpsons could be so philosophical! (Sorry if not spelled correctly - lots of damage done to my brain cells!).
