The good girl
Hi Dessi..welcome
Like you i cant crack the weekend binging either..did 45 days over lent and tried to moderate with some success...but i think i really know for me the answer EVENTUALLY has to be quit it completely.
i had the same problem with fags until i managed to change my mindset and pack them up completely...12 years no fags.
how i wish i could say 12 years no booze..for me it creeps up ..or i go out and say 2 drinks and then have 3.
I hate that feeling of the next morning being mad with myself for drinking BUT still i do it.
I,m on the June plan of 5 weekdays no booze and weekends a few(hopefully not binging)
If i had a magic wand i would give it up for good!!
It adds NOTHING to my life other than anxiety, guilt, FEAR,shame etc.
Cant really think of any positives.
I,m 52 and grandma and would die of shame if i end up a very drunken old lady.
Over and above all that for me its so hard when i try to live a christian life as a catholic and yet this weakness overwhelms me..The saving grace is i actually do know in God,s eyes I am good enough...keep hoping the power of prayer will change the course of my life very soon in relation to booze.
Otherwise happily married, lovely friends, enjoy work...JUST NEED TO STOP POISONING MY BODY/MIND ......
good luck
Regards cassy
