I fell off the abstain train

I think I have decided to learn from my mistake/s this time... in the past I just gave up, and decided it was no use, the addiction is bigger than me...

it's different this time, I want to learn from this "slip"... and figure out what to "do in the future to prevent this from happening again!

this means I have to REALLY think hard, and plan ahead !

I fell off the abstain train

thanks "foxman" for the AA Big Book quotes.

I made it through today without any alcohol! it's very tough though, it's always on my mind by the time late afternoon comes around

I'm going to keep aware and conscious of my triggers and craving tomorrow, and deal with them appropriately

dynamics and enabling

my husband and I have been drinking buddies through our whole time knowing each other and our marriage. There isn't much else we have in common... the dynamics are going to shift to something totally different, and I'm ok with that, he probably is too... it's just going to be strange

dynamics and enabling

hi Diane7 -- you said: "Perhaps a 10KM? " my husband will be 60 yrs old this year, he can hardly walk, he has had several strokes, he smokes and eats poorly (when I'm not around)

I'm almost 58 yrs, while I don't smoke, I'm not in the best of shape either ...

thanks for the suggestion tho :)

dynamics and enabling

thanks Josie

I'm not retired, just haven't been able to work for years because of my addiction. I'm also slightly agoraphobic, so I have to plan when I go out to buy groceries, etc.

full moon

I've not had any alcohol in two days

.... I TOTALLY want this to continue... this is going to be tough, there is a full moon tonight! It might sound strange to some of you, but I've noticed my drinking escalates on a full moon, and I've noticed it in other people also

full moon

I'm not sure Ashley, but I do know there are more police put on the force during full moons, more babies are born and the root of the word "lunatic" is luna = moon... nightclubs and bars have more patrons and alcohol problems and issues escalate :confuse:

I went back to the meeting today... I missed the last 2 meetings. The meetings are every Tuesday @ 11:00am

it was another fantastic experience... very wonderful women, extremely caring and nice :)
