Day one for me and I truly apologize for making the commitment then immediately baling. I drank, obviously. Anyway, day one for me and the first day of my two week vacation. Sounds like you are doing well and I humbly ask to join you. I am getting so sick of the taste of wine even and that was my poison of choice. It just seems so futile now to lift a glass to my lips with everything I know about my plans, my hopes, my family history, etc. It's just a bad habit and it takes a while to get my thick skull to acknowledge the simple truth: life is far better sober. I promise to be a good girl and keep up the abstinence. You guys are my inspiration!

sobersoul - we all understand. We have all been there too many times. Like Witts said - you are back on track, that's all that matters.

Miley - How's everything in your world? Still hanging in there? Thinking of you.

Sobersoul.....we are happy to have you join us! Like Moss said....we have been here many times. Getting back on track can be challenging but it's worth it

Moss I'm doing well. My hubby and I have been running around this weekend so I haven't been on MWO. I figured out that a big trigger for me is worrying. I worry about freaking everything. I'm glad I recognized it and will talk to my counselor about it. How have you been?

WE....I am really tring to stay focused. Thank you for the support...it helps!

Doing ok, Miley. The weekend was a bit tricky for me. Too much time on my hands to think. But made it through. I was actually glad to go back to work today. I needed to be around people and get out of my head. I think I understand what you mean about worrying. I struggle with anxiety - which may or may not be the same thing you are experiencing. But I do spend time worrying about most everything. It's something I have really been working on lately.

I've mentioned in several posts that I have been self-medicating for it my whole life. But I have learned that AL only makes it worse. Especially the morning after. Let us know what your counselor says. If it does turn out to be anxiety, I can share a few holistic things I've tried with varying degrees of success. Take care.

Sobersoul - how's it going? I've been thinking about you and hope you are hanging in there.

Witts - I've tried St. John's Wort and I found it very helpful. I've also used passion flower. Glad to see you are posting and doing well.
