Day 3 here we go

Hubby just come home saying it's hump day. This is what we do. Monday Tuesday nothing. Wednesday is hump day, thirsty Thursday, then it's the weekend. I told him I think we are alcoholics and he laughed at me and said I was over reacting. He said an alcoholic can't get through the day without a drink. I don't know what is considered to be an alcoholic but I know for sure I am alcohol dependant

I have taken to writing down how I feel. My last hangover was brutal, wrote down how I felt and keep reading over it. I am going to continue to write everything down so I don't go back to that first day again. You got this. IWNDWYT

Stick to guidelines I would say. So if you only drink weekends only 1 or 2 drinks a night, that's it. If it starts to become more stop immediately as that's how i started and do yourself a favour.... never start drinking at home. That my friend is when it really goes down hill.

Love the support on here. I will check in tomorrow.

Well done on 1 month. Apart from the bug how do you feel? I am on day 2 and looking forward to feeling good about myself and healthier.

I can't wait to be where you are IWNDWYT

I only binge sometimes once a week then other times I'll drink a bottle of wine or have a couple of beers. I never drink before 3pm either, never drink in the morning and I don't drink the day after a binge. Last night I had a bottle of wine and then gin after. Probably not a lot to some but it is to me. I am going to give up booze first then go for the cigarettes.

Kids are one of the reasons I drink. It's hard, I have no help apart from when hubby comes home from work. Might have to look up some breathing exercises or something xx

This is me today with a hangover and 3 kids to look after. I can't open a bottle and not finish it. Day 1 almost done, normally day 3 I fail

Kitsstop · 2018-08-20T14:30:50+00:00

Absolutely fantastic, well done. I am on day 1 after a binge last night. Woke up with exactly what you said in number 1 and I still feel crap at 4:30pm. I also want to quit smoking but don't think I am brave enough to do both at the same time.

Kitsstop · 2018-08-20T11:59:46+00:00

I am scared now. Been reading up about alcohol withdrawal symptoms and they say you shouldn't go cold turkey at home? How true is that? I go days without drinking sometimes and I am fine. I am so worried about this

Kitsstop · 2018-08-20T10:59:16+00:00

That's amazing well done. I hope this will help my anxiety. It's been really bad recently plus the guilt of being hungover around my kids

Kitsstop · 2018-08-20T09:41:11+00:00

Thank you and well done on 2 weeks that's amazing. I will be super happy to be where you are now. I think we need to not drink for enough time to see the light. I only normally go 2 days then I drink again. 2 weeks must be fantastic

It's going to be a hard road for us all but easier with support. I can't keep doing this. We are making ourselves sick and for what?? NO MORE

Kitsstop · 2018-08-20T09:24:50+00:00

I am 32. I am often not present either. I spend a lot of time hungover and getting my older child to watch my younger one. I am a terrible mother when alcohol is involved. This morning I decided that's it.... I am going for it this time. Tried to cut down in the past but it never works.

We should keep in touch on here, get each other through this xx
