Back to me - although my friends might worry about my drinking because I am worried about it and talk about it (mostly jokingly), they expect me to be the drinking/funlovin’ party gal (hence my new screen name) that I am. How can I possibly be fun lovin’ without a drink in my hand.
Last year I went AF the first two weeks in January after help here on MWO.. It wasn’t terribly difficult from day to day, but one day I drove through a horrendous snow storm – was totally frazzled - and came home and had a drink. Knowing I needed some help to stop turning to AL when stressed or frazzled, I purchased some Naltrexone and took it for a few months. I believe it helped somewhat, but when I went on a vacation late March/early April I decided that I didn’t want to be bothered by the rules. Truthfully, I don’t even remember what the rules are right now, but I’ll review the literature. I have 50 pills left, so think I’ll start them again immediately. Oh wait… I am remembering some of the rules suddenly… no empty stomach and one hour before drinking.. Not sure why that was so tough at the time..
I downloaded a book about staying sober for 7 days and will be reading that.. as well as the other hard cover books and kindle books I already have.
If you have gotten this far, I thank you for reading and being here!
