My husband has even stopped drinking...during the week at least...it's a start!

Happy sober days classmates!

Awesome all around Sistah!!

Interesting about the medical opinion. I have had exactly the same advice from three separate medical professionals - GP, Psychiatrist, and Psychologist (Which is sounding like I'm a fruitcake!).

As I struggled through my own day 9 yesterday I was having exactly the same thoughts - "If these people don't see it as a problem then why am I putting myself through this?"

Anyway, here's to the start of day 10.
