hey all - update :-)

Well still sober, was six weeks yesterday.no cravings at the moment. Its weird to think I couldn't even drive from point a to point b without stopping for wine and now I hardly think of it. I resigned from my job on wed after another bullying session. Just couldn't cope anymore.spent 6 years there and almost 10 vet nursing, and I'm done! Have had two interviews for a gym job and another on Tues. I'll b taking a pay cut so can't afford to drink even if I wanted to so that's good ( ???? ) lol!! I don't know, I know I sound perky but I'm incredibly stressed and a lonely, but I can see light now rather than just a black abyss of nothing, so that's pretty cool.hope everyone's ok? Chur. Xx

Congrats on 6 weeks

I know its scary but that old place sounded pretty bad - you're likely look back on this as one of those crossroads of opportunity AN

That's what my mum said :P actually she's the one who said, quit right now, we will figure it out.so it was great to have that support. I knew if I ever wanted to b happy again I had to get out and make this part of my way of life.Nything that I associated with drinking has gone.anyways, thanks for your congrats.i owe every hard time I've made it through in the last week to this forum x

Good for you! I also quit my horrible job. I knew that I had to in order to succeed at sobriety. I was also a victim of bullying.

Great progress on the drinking front. I think we all have to find ourselves and get comfortable in our own skin- a change of scenery can't hurt
