Hi Want2Bgreat and Introvrtd1.

Thanks for that...yes lets do this together.

I know that everyone is only a day away from using BUT the more days behind you, I do think it does get a bit easier, by no means easy, but you do learn to adjust and have new ways to cope etc

So maybe, no definitely we can all get through this together.

I am away to work today (big test) I am gonna try and make it in a whole week this week!!

Morning TKK - how ya doin', hang in there.

Keep it up. I know where you are coming from. The road can get frustrating and make one weary. But from my experience it isn't nearly as dark or treacherous as the other.

I'll be thinking of you.

Sending prayers out to you Cyberwolf....I know you can do this!

My partner has a trick that she used her first few weeks of recovery. Don't take it day by day..if you have to, say that I am not going to drink for the next five minutes. I am not going to drink for the next 1/2 hour, I am not going to drink for the next hour. Pretty soon, you've made it through the whole day!

Day 2 now right? See... you're doing it already .

Hi guys,

3 quarters of the way through day 2. Thanks for the support and merlotmamma that is so true there was a bit last night when I thought I could easily have a glass of win, but then I told myself just to wait an hour and see...and the juice did the trick!! Amazing how much fluid we can drink when that very fluid dehydrates us!! But try drinking the samer amount of hydrating fluids!!!!

Have had a good day went to work, stayed there ALL day, went to grocery store got shopping and went to pet store for food for the animals. Had a wobbly time around 12 - 1 but stayed with it and here I am home and ok.

Hows everyone else doing?

Thanks for the support guys it means a lot.

Be honest with your doc. Don't be afraid. That is what they are there for- to help you.
I'm here pulling for you.
I'm glad that you are feeling better.

take care

cyberwolf

Well docs yesterday was BIZZARRE, saw a different doc, who tolod me it was fine not to want to take effexor or diazepam, and if I didnt want to then I didnt have to!!! And to come back and see him in a week!! Yestareday was a good day all round thought it has to be said.

But.....

Todays a different story, very tearful today, back to crying like a lunatic for no reason, called work today but was talked into gouing in, not good idea in my opinion, panic anxiety tears, the whole lot not good. Am home for lunch and I feel drained. V emotional amd v tireed. Wantto hinernate and wake up to find this is all ok. Todauy is the anniversary of a death for me today so don't suppose thats helping, but could do without all this :-(

Anyway read your post TKK I hope you got medical help and are ok and today is day 4 for you.... How are you doing Want2Bgreat and Introvrtd1? I hope we are all managing today? Or even for the next 5 minutes.

I am off to eat some lunch I think thiiough to be honest feel too emotional to do that!! Hugs and good wishes to everyone

well another day down. Not a good day here but I am so much more fortunate than others and I wish i could just see that. I hardly slept at all last night and am so despondent about everything. B/F wanted to take me out for tea - I couldnt be bothered, I was supposed to see therapist - I couldnt be bothered, Just cooked tea and can't be bothered eating it.

I am so tierd and so grumpy and I have toothache!! Think that is all my moans.

The anxiety is so strong just now, really thought I would have to stop the car today I kept focussing on deep breathing and "swallowing" the fears probably not real clever on a busy motorway!!

I just hope tomorrow will be different.

Anyway what about you guys Introvrtd1 and want2b and TKK?

Hnag in there guys as Im right there beside you.

Hope everyone reading this has made it through another day and if you havnt don't beat yourself up just choose not to use in the next hour, and then the 1 after that etc
