Hey all, I'm getting on this thread late but I'm here, I've got 94 days and was feeling really good till a couple of days ago, I think I've got a bit of PAWS, and hoping I'll bounce back from it soonish. Good luck to everyone on here.

Thanks @Free2bme888, just a cranking up of anxiety for no particular reason, frustrating.

Welcome Mustard,
Hi Free
Sorry I haven’t been posting, my Mum’s really sick in hospital with pneumonia. My Dad is really sick too and he’s so far away. We just got back from going across the country to see him as he has cancer. Then Mum got sick 2 days later.. Dad apparently has pneumonia too now. It’s awful. I feel so guilty for taking Mum over there now, maybe she caught something over there or on the plane coming home. I’ve been mostly with Mum in the hospital or trying to study and finish a nursing assignment that’s due next week and trying to catch a little sleep when I can . I’m struggling with everything, but I don’t want to nor have time to drink. I’ll catch up with you all sometime when I feel less overwhelmed, much love and support to everyone ❤️❤️❤️

Hello and welcome Mr. Mustard.

Willow, really sorry to hear that your Mum & Dad are unwell, the reversal of roles can be difficult but often has to be done as we get older ourselves. Hope you get your studying done and that you manage to get enough sleep too.

Thanks BP2, yes this aging business is emotionally challenging alright, especially with those we care so much about

At 2300 tonight I will have been off the booze for 110 days. Never felt better. Just returned from a holiday with people that drink lots, but never felt any desire to join them in their drinkfests.

Just a little disappointed with the choice of non-alcoholic drinks in pubs and restaurants. If there is a reasonable selection they mostly appear to be rammed with sugar - not so good for a Type 2 Diabetic like myself.

As an aside, there doesn’t seem to be much posting activity within this Class. Have a lot of subscribers fallen by the wayside, or are you just cracking on with your fabulous new lives?

Having said that, am not much of a poster myself, so really have no room to criticise.

Anyhow, here’s wishing all my fellow travelers the very best of health. Keep keeping the faith.

Hi Solly, Free, Dee, John, Mustard and anybody else left here
Solly, well done on 110 days!
I got to my 100 days (which was something I have really set as a major milestone for myself) on Tuesday but it slipped by unnoticed totally.
I wonder if my Mum somehow knew although I never told her, she knew so many things.... She passed away peacefully Tuesday evening, pretty much exactly to the hour of my 100 days since I stopped drinking.
I loved her to bits and I will forever miss her but I am so grateful that she went with love, acceptance, peace and dignity, surrounded by her loving family ❤️ RIP my beautiful mama ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I’m still here, but I have been caught up with family. I will still be here and will be back, but may be a bit busy for a little while,
Catch up soon
Willow x

You usually find most of the monthly threads die down a little. This one is actually still pretty active compared to others

Hey dudes, just checking in, feeling much better this week and happily up to day 104...

Willow, my thoughts go out to you and your family, congrats you haven't had to drink to get through it.

Hi Mr.Mustard,

Glad to hear that you're feeling much better and well done for reaching 104 days, great going!

I like the 100 day milestone and I'm currently 10 days behind you.

John

Hi Willow,

I hope that you're doing ok or as well as can be under the circumstances.

My Dad died a few years ago and I was with him throughout his final days so I can understand what you're going through.

I know I've already said this elsewhere but really well done on the 100 + days, you can be very proud of yourself

My best wishes,

John

Thanks guys for your support and well wishes ❤️ I’m still sober.
For me it will always touch my heart that Mum passed away on my day 100.
She always worried about me drinking, I’m sure she knew more than I ever realised... I’m sure Mum is so proud of me and so happy that I’m not drinking. If anything I think it’s given me even more incentive to not drink again, to honour my beautiful, kind and loving mama ❤️
