Help - really want a glass of wine!

Help me someone!

I'm 28 days AF (and apart from a few drinks on holiday end of Oct) have been AF since Sept 1st 08. Have had a rough weekend looking after the kids alone (both ill) I've just got over being ill myself and now have conjunctivitis tonight - and my husband is back, just opened a bottle of chilled white wine for himself, and I'm really tempted - I know it's wrong - help me someone!!:upset:

Hiya Sausage. Remember a while ago when you went on holiday, drank and felt so bad with yourself when you returned? Well, thats exactly how you will feel if you give in now.
How about a hot bath? England is freezing right now, a hot bath would be bliss. Lock the door and take a book with you and some bubbles....
It will relax you so much more than a glass of poison.
Stick with it, tomorrow you'll be happy you did,

DON'T DO IT!!!!!

Two more days and you'll hit 30!!! Get out of the house. Get away from the wine, the kids, the temptation. Go for a long walk. Go run an errand. Go buy yourself a gift for the 30 days. Go visit a friend. Just leave for a while until it passes. It's not worth it - you know that. If you can't leave, have a cup of tea, bubblebath, jump rope anything! Be strong, you know you can!!

How'd I do?

Not sure how to use the chat room - never been there - think i'll watch rain in my heart documentary if I can find it on line - and get myself a soft drink whilst I do so ..........

Good for you Sausage for asking for help. You KNEW in your heart what to do. You knew the answer for yourself, you DID NOT really want to drink tonight. Another piece of that bad habit just died for you and now you know how to kill it...ask for help. Good on you girlfriend.

Thanks again everyone - I've been analysing why tonight was so tough for me and i've left my thoughts on the AF daily thread for Sun 30th Nov. Coming through tonight and this hard weekend with all it's triggers and remaining AF has really helped me and boosted my confidence in fighting this.

Thanks everyone
