I did ok for sleep last night and had a good, productive day today. I did find myself dragging my body around a bit but I have been free of any major discomfort and had a reasonably clear head. Since coming home a couple of hours ago (It's Mon 7:30pm here) I have spent a fair bit of time on here, chasing various threads. A few threads with people talking about actively drinking resulted in some throat squeezing, heart flipping cravings though! Enter the fizzy lemonade. I know from experience that a large part of my cravings are for the amount of sugar that lives in the white wine I drank, 2 litres at a sitting. I know sugar is not great, I do; but that cold glass of lemonade just saved the day for me. I live in a tropical place, and It's 34 degrees C here, humidity sitting around 70%. Just approaching the monsoon season, which will bring the cleansing rains. Locally, there is a term for people who go silly at this time of the year - mango madness. We have a large problem with alcohol abuse here. Anyway, time for a cold shower and a quiet, chilled out night. Thanks for being there

Well done Caz I also find that a fizzy drink helps at times like that

Hang in there Caz!

Congrats on day 2. The first few days are tough, but it does get better.

Some of the posts used to bother me too, but now when I read them I am so glad that I never have to feel that way again.

Keep pushing forward...
