Day 6. I'm not feeling good. I'm sleeping ok at night yet I'm still physically and mentally exhausted throughout the day. I have zero patience, I feel intensely irratable, frustrated and rather flat. This isn't compatable with my responsibilities as a single parent - 5 of my 6 children are with me and it's school summer holidays for another 3 weeks.
I hate to admit this bit I've screamed a lot the past 2 days. My 6 year old plays up a lot and usually I have the patience of a saint with him, with all of them. They must be wondering what the hell is wrong with me. I've been craving too. The AV has been screaming for wine. I need this feeling to stop ASAP, I can't bare the person I am right now. How am I going to cope? I'm too used to mellowing out with wine... It dissolved my stresses. Gave me something to look forward to. Softened the edges.
I hope it passes soon.
