And I said no to alcohol that I was offered. Also went to the doctor this week and easily could have gotten benzos but I didn't. Yay me.

But I feel like I am sort of talking myself into believing that I can go back with no worries. That I could get a script and take it as prescribed, or that I could have a baileys after dinner like all my friends and just leave it there. I wish I could

Just sharing. Nearly 2 weeks off alcohol and 7 or. 8 weeks off benzos and opiates and my head it trying to trick me....or is it?

Those are common thoughts. Remember they're not true - stay focused

That's great you are doing so well! I've talked myself into believing I had no worries and looking back, I did. I think it's great that you have this self awareness and I hope you have a good night!

Great to hear, Midlifecrisis. Just stay strong and with it and the thoughts will become fewer and fewer. Remember they are lies. I sometimes get those thoughts, too. They are becoming less common, thankfully. Prayer is an extremely good tool in those situations.

Midlifecrisis

Thanks. I've found self awareness can be really great but it can also be very painful when you can see what you're doing and why but feel powerless to change it! Argh. Anyway, hopefully that's changing now

Thanks Dee

Midlifecrisis

Thanks. The lies are just as sneaky, if not more so when you are feeling good hey? Definitely prayer helps

Can I multi quote from my phone??

sofie

I didn't know I could quote at all from my phone...I'll give it a try and hope it all goes well!

Midlifecrisis

Lol I can from my iPhone by tapping on te blue shaded area at the top of the post. Not sure about multi quoting though.

sofie

Thank you! I have tried A LOT and could never figure it out! Thank you!

Midlifecrisis

Hehe, no probs

I've removed some unhelpful posts under rule 2 and 4, and some posts that replied to them.
