May AF anyone?

[wastedtime]

I am brand new to the site - well, second time around brand new. I am 2 days AF - this is my third. May is going to bring some stresses for me that I can see coming. Stresses I USED TO deal with by drinking two bottles a night of white wine. I want to commit to an AF May. I am nervous about commiting publicly - especially since I'm trying to start this thread myself and don't really know what I'm doing. Would anyone like to join me? How does this work?

Thanks,
WT

May AF anyone?

Yes, I would. I'm doing better than I have done in the past, mostly by taking it ODAT. I'll still be doing that but I think I'm ready to do a whole month now so count me in!!

Bessie - you have been doing so well! If there was a month this one would be yours!

May AF anyone?

Let's hope so! Feeling more positive about it - seemed to have turned a bit of a corner.... Keep an eye on me though. Sometimes I throw a bit of a wobbler! :H

Hi!

I am going to give it my best shot!!! I hope to go home to the arrival of my supps - hope is the operative word here!!!! I will still have to be ODAT, as this will be a first for me and I also have some occasions I am concerned about.

Wasted,

I am in!!

A tip. It is easier to keep up with several short threads than one really long one.

Croft had an AF April that she started every day with a new thread, "AF April 23" or something like that.

However, a long single May thread has its advantages that people who live in the West Coast area still get read after the post.

Then there is the option of keeping it for a week and then starting a new one.

It is up to you entirely. It is your thread.

Peanut - I don't think we have ever kicked anyone out that slipped from one of these AF threads. I sure hope not, anyway. So, if you slip, you just have to jump right back in.

There are also two other threads you might be interested in. In Just Starting out there is an ODAT thread that is created daily. And in Monthly Abstinence there is a monthly ABs thread. You might want to read in those, too, and post if you feel like it at any time.

Like AA says, "All you have to have is the desire." We don't expect 100% from everyone, if we did, this would a very thin website. :H

I'll be looking for the May thread.

Thanks!!

I have no idea how this works, Peanut. I am so new, but let's not worry about slips now. Let's go ODAT together. K?
