Made it through last night AF and am well on my way tonight. Have a dull HA and some sweats, but was feeling fine and enjoying the company online. Husband is on his eighth or so beer in den watching t.v. Son just came in and was telling me about his toothache and the f'ing marine corpos who were supposed to take care of it before he left and said they did but didn't. I sympathized, made a suggestion, then smiled and said, "Sweeheart you have to see some of these songs on this site," and he just turned around and said, "I'm not in the mood" and walked away. He is normally such a sweet young man. He'll come back later and apologize, but right now guess what I want to do......DRINK! I am mad at what Iraq did to him. I'm mad that he can't even get decent dental care and is pain. I'm mad that my head is hurting for the 9th day straight....And even though half an hour ago I was fine w/out drinking, now all i want to do is DRINK!

So true. You are fragile. But remember your drinking will not help any of the situations that you have talked about. You have to do this for you and you will feel so much better if you do. Good Luck and stay close -

yeah we have all been there and done that but the thing is yeah sure you could drink but why ...keep on they way you are right now ..remember how you felt an hour ago .. write your thoughts down ask questions .. go into chat and wait for someone to come there and talk chat about it .. but dont drink why wake up with a hangover .. when you know those problems will be there again tomorrow but you can stay strong and do what you know you have to do is not drink and think about with a clear mine .. stay strong and think positive:beach: life does change as long as you are willing to change yourself ..
best thing about the future it comes one day at a time..Comment

Sami - thoughts and prayers going up for you. I can't even imagine the anger you must feel. Drinking will just make you feel more out of control. By staying AF - you will wake up feeling more peaceful - gradually day by day. this will also help you show your dear Son how to deal with stress without pouring your emotions into the bottle. In the long run - you will be the best example anyone can be for him. Hang tight ... the headaches will get better.
:lAF since Jan. 1, 2008 .... It all began right here
Raise your hopeful voice, you have a choice, you made it now.

Hi Sami, sorry to hear you're so down
I agree with everyone else, even just the ONE drink wont do any good whatsoever... and will make things a damn sight worse.
You hang in there Missy! :l?I am playing all the right notes... But not necessarily in the right order.....?

Hi Sami,
I hope you can get some help for your son soon. Hang in there, don't drink, you can do it!It is easier to ask for forgiveness than it is to get permission.Comment
