Pour it out, Mummy. No way will you keep it together for the rest of the day. Give yourself a chance.

But drinking will increase the stress x 100. Believe me, I know ! Pour it away, drink some water and go to bed before things get really out of control. Please !

Hi Mummy! I remember you, you had a lot of great advice when I was struggling.

I know you know drinking won't help your stress levels, it will only make them so much worse. I hope you can make today Day 1. Don't give in to the liar that is alcohol.
