This might be where things are falling apart Dawn. You don't want to argue with the bugger, he will always win. Recognise him and ignore him. Takes practice but I think that is what finally stopped me drinking.

Have you read Allen Carr's book Easyway to stop drinking? I got some good tips from there too.

Have you got anyone to keep you accountable too? I found that helps some. Not that much because I had to be certain I wouldn't drink again before I involved anyone else, but it certainly helps stop the drinking thoughts when they come up now.

I hope you find something that helps x
