May I suggest a nice cup of Chamomile tea, instead of wine. Unlike wine it has "good" stuff in it, relaxing stuff, you wont wake up tomorrow and say..........Cotton pickin! why did I drink that tea!

But you will be unhappy about drinking wine.

Ive had lots of trouble with getting to sleep almost all my life, I find that the tea really helps get me in the mindset for bed. If not tea, drink ANYTHING but poison

Stella,

I completely understand. I work 7 days a week, cook, clean, do the shopping, take care of my husband and dog. I understand your stress. I gave myself a chronic illness at age 14 cause I couldn't deal with my stress. Just remember that this stressful day will end and tomorrow will start a new day. Do anything you can to unwind but drink. Drink tea, take a walk, read a book, lay on the couch and listen to some soothing music, watch a movie, anything. Just don't drink. And yes, perhaps a change in jobs might be a good idea. Don't give in to the bitch. It really is your and our enemy, not our friend. Good luck!

Thanks guys day 11 started and I think I might take the day off my AF days are much more
important to me than my job at the moment.
Thank you so much for the support xx
