Hi all, it's been a while since I posted on here, I guess I'm like a lot of you, on the whole I'm pretty good and since 7th feb this year I haven't been so drunk that I wake up with no memory feeling crap, depressed blah blah, in that way I'm doing well

I am still drinking and I have even gone out and driven without drinking a few times

But I still drink, I know still too much

I'm averaging about 4-5 bottles of wine a week which is way too much

I still tend to 'turn' to drink, happy sad stressed tired emotional. - have a drink

I'll keep on going and try to reduce more

I CAN do it 🙏💪

    Hi Rach, it's good to hear from you.

    I am much the same as you....still drinking, but proud of the fact that I am still cutting down.  I drink around 5 units a night and am struggling to get below that, but I will keep trying.  Anything is better than how I was before.

    Alcohol is such a prop for me, for many reasons.  I am sure you are the same, and that is the hard thing to get over.

    Are you using any medication, Rach?  I can't remember if you are.  I'm not.

    Anyway, keep in touch won't you?  And keep up the good work.

    Love,

    Pat
