Conquoring day 1!!! Who's beating this with me?

But hey if you do then welcome back to day 1. we all seem to be a bit muddled at the moment. Today i have woken up in a better frame of mind as yesterday was a corker and the cravings were horrendous and yes needless to say i had a drink and now feel bad but hi ho hi ho off i go again. keep in touch

hi Min well i am battling at the moment and cant say i am winning any competitions with AL. seem to be doing a lot of day 1's but its a break as i never had any day ones before. going to download JV's book after work and go to chemist to get some supps. and if all else fails i will go to drs and tell her i am an alcoholic and get better drugs. I think its the time of year which is so awfully hard for us all and i have my mum taking over my house for six weeks which is enough to make anyone drink. i love her dearly but 6 weeks is soooooooooooooo long.

Hi Available

Thanks for your words of encouragement. I got through that bad half hour and didn't have the drink ! I am so proud because I managed to beat the demon in my head ! It's not going to get any easier, I know that, but at least I beat it once and that means I can do it again.

I notice you are going to get JV's book. Believe me that will be the best thing you will ever do. It is the one thing that helped me to reach 18 days and it also helped get me through tonight. Everywhere I go now, that book goes with me ! You will learn one important point as soon as you start to read the book and that is that there is no such thing as an alcoholic. never has been and never will be !!!

My doctor has offered me Campral if I could stay off the booze for a couple of weeks. I'm seeing him on Thursday and I'm tempted to tell him that I don't need it, all because of reading Jasons book. Good Luck with the next few days.

Oh good on you TP, im proud of you too. Yes payday today and i need to get an action plan happening or im going to be completely screwed and i dont want that. Maybe u should get the script for the drugs just in case. I find getting any scripts off my doctor a miracle, anyone would think they are paying for them themselves. thanks for the words of encouragement friend xx

agree, they had such "camaraderie" and were so supportive yet realistic - hope they come back soon to keep the thread going.
Av - I haven't been able to find the L-Glut but have only looked in Chemists, I guess I need health food shops. Am trying to hang on in there though - the way I look at it, any improvement is something at least - always look on the bri-i-i-ght side of life!

Hi guys

Hello all. Sorry a short as I'm on the Phone and trying to get my little one to sleep.
timpani. Once again great job knot giving in JV book will be going with me oo. I am so pleased you are doing So well.

Aspiring. Hope you go the scriPt you needed.

Available. Look on the brunt point hat you had just one. That's good and it is fine to have to start again. I'm sure like me there would've been a time you wouldn't want to start again.  like you said in your earlier post- those D1 will add up. Alongside my continuous AL free days I also note how many I have had in totally. New to MWO and seriously trying to stop so my dates are only from 7th November or something. iChat three straight days where I had some drinks since then but around 16 day or so where I've not that's more than half of November. Can't say I can say that about October. Have you go the Jason Vale book?

I'm bloody furious! I was so anticipating getting a script for Antabuse from doc this evening and she's decided to go first line with the Campral! Go back in 2 weeks to arrange mental health plan with psychotherapist.
I had it all sorted in my head .. no drinking tonight .. go to pharmacy tomorrow, pick up Antabuse script ... fab, no drinking AT ALL for at least 2 weeks.
It's all fekked now .. I'm drinking wine as usual and feel as if I've been duped. I so wanted to get a handle on this by this weekend. Do the docs really know what's best? I would have thought the benefits would have far outweighed the risks.
But apparently I have some fatty deposits in my liver. She says I can't reverse that. But there's so much conflicting information out there.
Comments welcome please

There is a something called Super Thislyn - it's supposedly a high strength mill thistle extract with every available liver tonic herb - comes on it's own and with a liver detox/flush kit at US Heath Food//herbal stores. I used the Super by itself the first couple of weeks of detox as insurance all though there was no sign of liver issues - figures if I was flushing toxins out - if it increased bike flow - couldn't hurt to get rid of stuff faster.

I don't know - if you have the fatty deposits - may be worth looking into the full tonic treatment.

I don't know any more about it - made by Nature's Way but I am sure there are user reviews on the web.

Let us know what you decide! Thinking of you

Twitt, I feel you are a member of my family, for that is the name my Mother called my brother, he lays claim to it now Mom is gone.
Today is my D6. Wine was my drink of choice, but I got to the point if it was here I would drink it. 2 years ago, there could be beer in the fridge, whisky on the shelf and I would not touch it. I felt the same way, I wanted off. I picked a day and so far so good. I however lost my job, not because of AL, but I lost it anyway. For the first few weeks, I had a glass of wine in my hand 24/7. It would start anywhere from 3 a.m. and go till 8 or 9 p.m.
Lets us know how you are doing. My drink of choice is now ice water. Stick with MWO there are so many supportive people here, no one judges and always a kind word.
