Nands you will have 60 days before you know it  Did you say you opened a spam at work cause you were drunk? Did you actually go to work drunk or seriously hung over? How are getting on with your mum? CG hope your day at work is a good one  |

Can you get a couple of days off work Nands ? Better phoning in sick till you sort yourself out then getting into bother. You've came too far to get caught out now.

no i didn't go to work drunk..i got on my computer by worming in from home..it's waht i do so i can work at home...and thats when i opened the email. I didn't work yesterday as i was still drinking I haven't drink since mom came at about 6 last night and after an argument i had her dump it  this is a mess.Things are not going well at work...but i'm doing my best and honestly other than missing work yesterday (which i know counts) this mess isn't about drinking... The only thing i did drinking was mess with all my friends/relationships..drunk dialling and posting...as you all saw mom won't want me on line so its gonna be hard to be hear and frrankly i'm so embarrased...it may take a few days to get myself over that.... I will sneak on tonight and post after she goes to bed I know i sound about 12 but i'm gonna do whatever it takes to stay on track...that "little slip" was pretty bad really.... ok gotta finish something in the next hour for work but needed to see you guys. don't anybody drink..it's not worth it. (i'm a little pissed ...mad that is..right now.

Nands it sounds like you have got this back under control, even if it is difficult. Do what you have to do to stay sober  Anyone heard from Dee today? |

| it's only life after all  |
Congrats Jason, 60 days is awesome! Nands I'm glad to see you get back on track quickly. When you are ready, would you be willing to share about what you think led up to it? When you said a few posts back that this time you didn't let the desire pass, but went and got the bottle right away... that's exactly what I do. On my last long sober stretch I kept trying to wait longer and longer but it felt like the stupid addiction knew that and got more persistent. After a couple of weeks of that I felt like the cravings would never go away and I just couldn't stand it anymore. That's the story of how I lost my 60ish days earlier this year! I would love to know how to identify "the insanity that precedes the first drink" so I'm better armed against it. Wow, long and babbly... sorry guys.

it's not being a very good day...i do understand it's a good thing I'm sober...all is ok..but i feel like i'm on the edge of a cliff....I think i have unreasonable expectations of my self.....i realy do....trying to do 3 peoples jobs for the last 2 mos hasn't gone very well...but drinking wouldn't help that...and in the end i have to deal with this..in real life, in my head and in my heart... what is going on in everyone elses life? do other people have to deal with this sort of thing to stay sober....seems to me its about more than just not drink...i'll lose at that one...gotta find a way to be different
