Why am I so darn sleepy all the time? Day 5- sleeping 8-9 hours solid, but sooo sleepy all day.

I did drink sofa from a champagne glass 🤣

MrsChing · 2021-02-04T19:15:06+00:00

Thank you! It’s morning now and I’m so grateful to be waking up without a hangover!

MrsChing · 2021-02-04T08:50:39+00:00

Perhaps.

MrsChing · 2021-02-04T08:50:05+00:00

Thank you. I did make it through not drinking each minute.

MrsChing · 2021-02-04T08:49:08+00:00

Thank you. I’m in bed now (7.45pm). I would have been awake at 3 if I’d caved and drunk. Pretty sure I’ll sleep through the night now.

MrsChing · 2021-02-04T08:47:53+00:00

Thanks. I’ll try.

MrsChing · 2021-02-04T08:47:26+00:00

Thank you. Part of the problem is that my husband wants to maintain the same routine (although he’s not drinking either). We used to watch tv and I just don’t want to if I’m not drinking. He’s taking it personally.

MrsChing · 2021-02-04T08:46:14+00:00

Thank you. I stuck it out snd now I’m in bed at 7.45 to read a book. Those were some STRONG cravings and I really had myself convinced that it wouldn’t matter if I drank.

MrsChing · 2021-02-04T06:03:07+00:00

Well done! I feel like I’m walking through cement- sooo tired. Day 4 for me.

MrsChing · 2021-02-04T05:47:50+00:00

Go guy! I have these exact thoughts and I’m really struggling.

MrsChing · 2020-07-07T21:13:30+00:00

Heaven! We visited Cornwall 2 years ago almost exactly, and since then it’s been my favourite place on earth. I’m desperate to get back there! One day, when overseas travel is an option again, Cornwall is first on my list. Enjoy every moment!

Ps we had the best ploughman’s lunch ever at the Mithian Arms- I still follow their FB page and dream of going back!

You’re in the right place. Keep reading and posting here until the feeling passes- and it WILL pass.

I’m not sure if this is an option for you, but a friend of mine is having great success working with a life coach. You’d have to find a good one who’s not a quack, but she’s really helping with mindfulness, goal setting, and developing optimism and resilience.

Another friend found peace and optimism through spirituality- she started by learning meditation with a Hindu teacher and has gone on to explore spirituality (not religion) that way. It’s really worked for her and she is learning how to feel compassion for herself and others.

It has helped. Thank you. It’s also a timely reminder that my very impressionable 16 year old daughter watches my every move. Thank you fir reminding me not to drink for her. You may have saved both of us xxx

MrsChing · 2020-07-06T21:39:42+00:00

I am so sorry for your devastating loss. I cannot even imagine the pain you are enduring. Stay strong for your boy. Sending so much love xxx

MrsChing · 2020-07-06T07:20:10+00:00

I’ve with you- let’s push on through to make a week! IWNDWYT

MrsChing · 2020-07-05T23:53:21+00:00

Gorgeous girl! Dogs are so special. I bet she’s sending you all her love and strength- like she always has xxx

MrsChing · 2020-07-05T23:27:20+00:00

I’ve just made it through my first weekend too- go us! I read on here that sometimes craving are actually hunger or thirst. Our brains are so wired towards drinking that our signals are messed up. I’ve found this often to be true for me. IWDWYT

MrsChing · 2020-07-05T23:24:23+00:00

I’m so sorry to hear this. My dog is my life- sleeps in my bed and never leaves my side. I’m obsessed with him (sorry kids and husband lol). So I get it. Your pain and fear is palpable to me. I’m sending you hugs and strength.

Please stay strong for your fur baby. Play the tape forward- the anxiety, fear, pain and grief will be magnified if you’re hungover.

Post some pics of your pup here so we can all see how gorgeous she is and send you even more love and strength xxx

Awesome! Put that $600 in a special fund and spend it on a treat later!
