hi all As someone who s just recently got my soberity back and while it's still fresh in my mind how tricky and difficult it was to get it back I said I d post as to how I got it back , after about 8 failed attempts , it started to become hopeless all this starting and stopping really drains you. Mentally and physically!!! So after yet another bender which left me tottally poisoned , I said I'd go for 21 days and what ever happens after that I don t care , I'm doing the 21 days end of !!! I'll be in bed 8 hrs a day , so that's 16 hours a day for 21 days , I power walked 2 or 3 times a day , ate WHAT ever I wanted , loads of tv. And if I spent the day watching paint dry , it did t matter cos it was a great day cos I did t drink , anyway I wore myself out from all the power walks which really killed a lot of cravings I got my 21 days , and the thing with the 21 days is I'd have 3 weekends put down , my appetite would be back and So would my sober mind. Sorry for taking so long but for my 2 cents if your struggling now I believe if you can get to day 21 that's your base camp , once at base camp , can put plan in place then for next assault. Thanks for reading.
