Herod

First day on community detox. So far so good. Feel a little tired.I go on antibuse on day 3. Dreading all of this. I guess early days. Worried about cravings.

Thanks for the welcome. I am listening to Arsenal against West Ham. This is enough to drive you to drink !! 2 :1 to Arsenal to date.

Glad you liked the meeting! Funny I also had my first Outpatient group meeting yesterday, I was nervous, but knew I had to go.

I ended up with the same results, I learned some great things about myself and can't wait to go back.

We need to put as much work as we did drinking.

I think it is accepting you know what you are. You don't have all the answers,others can help through their experience. Bitting the bullet, getting on with it, and be proud of yourself.

I took my first Antabuse tab this AM. I fell asleep. So I guess I will take it bedtime. Finish detox in two days. Fantastic.
