Well, after a terrible night last night trying to sleep despite taking a tab, I have decided to be AF today! As long as I can get through that first two hours when I get home I will be fine - I actually took the Nal out of my key ring thing so I could NOT take it at work as I usually do!! And I am fine - it helped that I have a chap here at the house doing some work for me - I would not want him to see me with a drink at noon !! LOL

I have to admit that the thought of having a drink actually was not appealing actually - I have been having too many each day - and although I had 3 AF days last week, I have been drinking every day for four days - 5 each day and I am not feeling that great! SO AF today - and will also try for tomorrow. I leave for UK Friday and have so much to do before then that I need to have a clear head!! And still cannot seem to have just one or two ! Once I have that first one, all thoughts of trying to just have one or 2 go out the window !

Hugs, Maggie xx


4 days of booze and nal no wonder you're feeling a bit ugggh.


EXACTLY !!!!! :roll: :lol:

I have been struggling a little since home. Heat and dehydration make me head straight for the fridge. So, mixing up some lime fizzies and may go get a watermelon. If you want, I'm due for AF and would love to hold your virtual hand. You know how to find me. :)
Love and hugs,
Steve.

I WANT to say that I will join in too but even THINKING of posting that makes me feel nervous. AF days still my struggle.

Good luck to you both. xoxo Newlife

DEFINITELY ! I am going to have an AF today and hopefully tomorrow too !

And Minniemum - no worries about not being ready for an AF day - it took me FOR EVER to have one and even then I had some help with a teeny bit of an Antabuse tablet! The reason that I am having one today is I have been feeling pretty yucky - Jaba said to me that the Nal does let us know when we need to cut back - up until now I have not had much of that - but now it is beginning to let me know! It has only taken since January but hey at least it lets me know now !

Hugs, Maggie x

Good for you Maggie! One step at a time. AF days seem daunting at first but a lot of that is just mind games you play with yourself.

Keep it up!

Well, I am back from my trip to UK - did not have more than 2 drinks in any one day - one day did pour a third glass of wine but had two sips then poured it out ! Had nothing on the journey back and have nothing in the house today - not sure if I will get any - possibly not.

I am noticing differences but it might just be circumstances - so will wait and see how things go ....

Hugs, Maggie x
