Memories....
I walked into the bottle shop. Convinced myself that if I only bought one bottle of wine I'd be fine.
As I looked at all the bottles of my favourite white, I thought .. Emm not that one, I remember puking that one up. Oh, not that one.. I got really sick with that and a bottle of vodka.. What about?... No not that one either.. I fell down the stairs after that one plus the one beside it.
I then realised what I was doing.
I walked out again. Man oh man.

Glad you didn't buy anything. Sometimes all it takes is that little "pause" to keep us from making that next bad decision.
Hope next time you'll post here before you walk into that shop. Give us a chance to help you too.
Wishing you the best...

Wow. I've had a similar experience... Today and yesterday.
I seem to have a severe gluten reaction. A doc thinks it's maybe celiac. Am waiting to have a skin test, because that is how it's manifesting. So over the last couple months I couldn't drink beer. I found gluten free beer, which was gross, but, still beer, so I drank it. but started drinking a lot of wine, but, without eating most of the food I am used to eating.
It's wild how fast it happens in your head. There I am, five days with no booze, thinking about having a beer. Then, no. Can't have that. Skin will erupt and it's verrrry painful. Wine. Nope, got sick on that.... Oh, that white one. I remember that headache. Oh, I remember smelling that on my breath the next day, nope.... WHAT AM I DOING?!
Glad you made it past that. I did as well, am rolling into day seven.
I started to think, I should just convince myself that I can't drink any booze at all, because it will make me sick. Not just beer.... Because the fact is, it does. What person with a very bad allergy goes and exposes themselves to their poison on purpose?
Anyway, thanks....
