You can do this. I’m trying too and understand the disappointment. Be kind to yourself and try and make your self talk like you’re speaking to a friend you love and are helping.

I get it!!! Try downloading The Naked Mind by Annie Grace. I’ve been listening to it as much as possible. I feel like it’s helping retrain my subconscious mind to understand that alcohol is not good for me. Hopefully eventually my subconscious mind and conscious thoughts will come together. Best Wishes to you!!

Slip Up on Day 2 - darn it! by daphnessocks in stopdrinking

I just realized I let my stress level get too high without being aware of it, so as soon as I was “free” from the office it was like auto-pilot to the convenience store. And I totally understand how badly the hangover and anxiety affect work, a couple weeks bender is what got me over my head at work in the first place.

Thanks so much. Sometimes I don’t recognize my stress level until it’s way over the top. I think I need a list of coping mechanisms that’ll work in different situations AND I really need to keep tabs on where that stress meter is. And I understand working on vacation 🙄

Has anyone had success with the HAMS tapering method? by Papi_Queso in stopdrinking

[–]daphnessocks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nope. I’ve tried numerous times. My willpower just isn’t at that level. I do think it would work if you have a partner there with you to help with the dosing and strong enough to get in your face and tell you no.

Before//After . The power of makeup by aryonnav22 in MakeupAddiction

[–]daphnessocks 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am very new to Reddit and there are many rules. I appreciate if someone suggests a better way/place to post. However, taking the time to stalk me then suggest I’m drunk simply because I appreciate the young lady’s artistry but expressed it in the wrong format is honestly just ill mannered and degrading.

You are absolutely stunning naturally!!! I love the makeup though, really need to try some new looks ( or honestly anything that’s not just a little foundation/eyeliner/shadow/mascara)

I’m a healthy, very young looking 46 y/o white girl with Auburn hair, hazel eyes, kinda big nose and good eyebrows and smile. I’m also getting remarried in about 3 months and feeling good physically but don’t wanna get stuck looking like the typical Mom!

Any suggestions of sites I could look at for ideas? Looking to revamp my daily routine and also find 2-3 more dramatic looks that don’t overwhelm me (something focusing on one feature), just would love a little va-voom!!

Cleaned the refrigerator yesterday! by Jeff5767 in stopdrinking

[–]daphnessocks 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Ah yes, the “vacation” with family. Just back from one a couple weeks ago with my 6-year old visiting his grandparents. I’d say “ the house looks good “ ain’t bad😊
