Hello

Sorry to hear about your back Erratic.

Have a great sleep Be123, hopefully the meeting will be better next time.

Thanks Venus, hope you are ok.

I understand Tink. I've eaten so well the last few days but today a friend dropped some homemade chocolate brownies off for Jr RAL. So Jr RAL is quite odd and doesn't like chocolate brownies, would rather eat raw broccoli. anyway the brownies were sat there saying EAT ME!! to me of course. So I had 1.

Anyway, back to HPLC tomorrow and NO chocolate brownies for me!
Night all.x

Neither for me.

(Although my next door neighbur in Aus for 20 years has been madly in love with Hugh Grant forever. ). Oh, and another neighbour/friend was in love with Jerry Seinfeld and convinced herself he was going to be her husband....really....she came here (to the US) to meet him....just hung around NY believing she would. She did I believe. But that was as far as she got. True story.

And junior RAL is now officially my hero. s xx ❤️

Aw that's so sweet. Yes he is a bit of a healthy eater (not like his mother!) Don't get me wrong he likes chocolate and crisps and pizza but loves to eat raw veg. His ideal snack is raw broccoli,carrot & red pepper.

I love this icon!!! I make sure I hug Mr RAL and Jr RAL many times each day. Apparently huging 12 times a day is proven to lower stress and anxiety and improve mental health

Welcome Julyseacoats & Bilr

It is the middle of the night here. 3am. i feel wide awake. how different from 2 weeks ago when I would wake at 3am every morning with a raging thirst, banging headache, heart racing, dry mouth.

And the fear and incessant thoughts-what did I do last night, who did I text or contact on FB, what did I say, what time do i have to get up for work, will I be ok, I must stop drinking, I really can't keep doing this, I must not drink anymore, I'm making myself ill, will I be ok to drive, will I call in sick to work, ok today will be my day 1. and on and on and on the thoughts went for about an hour before I went back to sleep then woke 4 hours later feeling as equally horrendous.

Now it is different. I feel bright, clear headed and it is amazing. But the peace of mind is priceless.

I appear to have stopped counting days which is really odd for me. But I don't drink. Ever.

Back to sleep now

Morning all. Woken up feeling hungover AF, terrible head, groggy etc. No drinking involved - so now I've got the after effects even without the booze?

Maybe it was the sleep - I slept half an hour yesterday afternoon and slept 10 hours flat out over night. I think stress and everything maybe catching up with me. Pretty good and I'm sure I'll feel better for it later

Today I'm going to walk mindfully for an hour to aid my recovery. It's nice out and I've got some time late morning

Have a good one people.

Great post RAL ❤️

Be123 I had a few really bad wake up headaches too, maybe part of our body detoxing?

Yes, “inner smile” is a great way to describe the peace of sobriety Willow!
Glad you are better

Hi all. New day 1 here, sigh. I had been doing really well, but March has been a disaster so far. Ready to try and turn things around.
