Wow,

Morning absville. Can't believe it is almost 11:30 and I am first one to start the morning thread! Something MUST be wrong here. Well today is Day 3 and I am so happy that I have picked this choice. Feeling a little groggy though - took some 5-HTP last night (during chat) so I could be ready to sleepy bye. Decided to put book on shelf and, DAMN, but didn't that floor look nice and comfy. I fell asleep on floor for at least 3 hours and then later went to bed with NO problems again. And now am just getting up again after nice long sleep. Must shower and run, buy network cable to see if I can run latptop and desktop (so maybe I CAN hop on chat a bit) because I gots like 10 hours of work a head of me ICK. And 18 hours tomorrow ICK. And so on for next week and a half. ICK.

Anyway, welcome to all newbies. Post, read, post.

Welcome all, and lotso hugs and kisses.

Pansy, I think the reason you were the first one to start a thread is because it is not January 3rd yet. But I am sure this thread will fill up tomorrow!!! Goofball. Getting a good sleep threw you out of whack.

Hugs, Pansy

Okay, so yesterday was day one, and I failed, however I only took one of my supplements not the three recommended. I was very frustrated last night, I was going crazy. I usually start drinking at 6pm, but i made it last night until just before 8 pm. I was fighting with myself over drinking, eventually i cracked. I will keep trying, however; I am very upset about failing. I always want to quit first thing in the morning, then by afternoon the drinking demon starts trying to con me into it. Only good thing about last night was I did drink less than I normally do, I drank until i was tired and then went to bed, I usually drink until i pass out.. Any support would help, I am very upset right now. Thanks for listening

Hi Newgrl, where do you get the idea that you failed from?? lets look at the evidence....you normally start drinking at 6pm but you made it to 8pm...success number one.....you drank less then usual, just till you were tired not till you passed out...success number two..So, you see, one day, two successes...Okay, take the recommended dose of supplements today and see how you go on....one of the things about going AF is you have to learn a whole new way of looking at things....and as I have said before, this is going to be a very long, but worthwhile journey we are all on so throw all those negative thoughts out the window and grasp all the positive ones tightly, their there if you just look for them....

Good Luck, Love Louise xxx

Pansy is in Kiwi agogo time zone ...it IS 3rd of jan here...glad that you slept though my cherub, although floor was probably not best option!!! Work schedule does indeeeeeeeed sound disgusting..blegh,blegh and thrice blegh..
Newgrl...Oirish is right, two successes!! well done...look, I know I always do this, but if you haven't already, please look through MikeupNorths posts on his way to get into THAT AF mindset...the supps can help, but the old grey matter needs to be tuned into MWO FM for this to get easier. I cannot say ANYTHING as beautifully as that man, but, for me, when you read his posts...it all clicks into place...why we are doing this, and how to KEEP doing this......love Melon xoxo

Thanks weemelonhead, and question for everyone, do you guys know of a medication that helps you quit smoking and drinking, b/c I would not be embarrased asking my doctor for meds to quit smoking, and then I would use them for the drinking problem, jsut an idea??

I just flipped through some of mikeupnorths post, holy crap that is inspiring, if ANYONE else is having problems being AF, you NEED to read his posts. WOW! I am excited about being AF today and tonight and ENJOYING today as day one. I have let go of yesterday and understand I can do NOTHING about it, about me drinking, so I should not feel bad, I should be excited that today is another opportunity to rid my body of this poison, I do not have to worry about making it tommorow, I will deal with that tommorow, i only have today, so today I will be AF. I will let you all know how it goes. But i sincerely have new found hope, and realizing I only need to worry about today is an amazing feeling.

Hi Pansy;

I just brought 5-HTP, but I didn't start it yet. I was wondering how it would effect me. Thanks for the information.
