Feeling better today. I was more myself, which is normally acting sillly with my students and enjoying the day. I know it wasn't PMS, just a blah kind of a day yesterday. I know they say the novelty of being sober wears off, and I don't want it to. I want to know everyday that I'm feeling good because I'm not drinking. I'll keep reminding myself of those bad hangovers, missing out on everyday joyful activities, and now being able to engage myself in those activities with a clear head and feeling confident.
Pavati, Thanks for the great tips. I've done the deep breathing, mainly to help with my severe anxiety issues and that does help lots. I need to get back into the practice of incorporating that at least twice daily, perhaps once during my lunch break. It makes a big difference. And you're right. Life isn't perfect and we'll have our ups and downs. Our moods will change, just as the days and seasons.
Ican, sorry you had a bad night. It's just that, one night. But YOUCAN. Let us help and be there for you.
Eloise, good luck with the starter pack. I know that these supps can be extremely helpful in helping our bodies to find a natural balance. Allan Carr's book is excellent. I've got to dig up other books I've read because I read so many good and inspiring books over the years. I'm going to go into the attic and see what I have. I only hope I didn't get rid of them when I had those "modding" beliefs, got angry that I even thought I was considering I'm an alcoholic, and got rid of them. Keeping my fingers crossed they're still there. As far as feeling a difference with the supps, I'm not sure. You may find some answers in one of the threads below this one where they focus on that topic. Take a look. And take a look at the toolbox in "Monthly Abs." Lots of good stuff there as well. Congrats on your 14 days!
Willow, that's interesting - the full moon and cycle. Never really paid much attention to that, but now I will! I know when it's a full moon, my students are completely nuts. Of course they're 14 years old, so they're nuts most of the time anyhow! Gotta love 'em.
Isty - without the cylce. hmmm. That'll probably be here for me before I know it. But again, it makes sense that your drink pattern spiked at those times, now has more consistency without it. Deep thinking going on here!
Thanks for your support ALL. Have a wonderful evening. Off to the chiropractor shortly.
