Just wanted to say hi, as havent been on in a while. Went to Scotland for a week and had the most brilliant time with my partner and daughter. Things are looking more positive and i should be with them for good soon. Still not easy from my sons point of view or maybe mine if im honest i am not sure. But we all can move on from this and have a better life. I really do see that now. Had no urge to drink whatsoever when i  was there, absolutely none at all. It was quite amazing actually. Anyway just wanted to say hello to see how you all are too? Keep in touch x

    Hi Sharon.

    Great news. It's good to see positive posts. I had over two weeks dry recently and started looking after myself for the first time in years.

    Unfortunately I crashed and burnt and am currently trying to recover again.

    I'm hoping to start some volunteer work soon get out the house n make new friends

    Those two sober weeks showed me how much more enjoyable my life could be without the hangovers and sickness.

    I also wrote to my daughter and received a reply which cheered me up no end. I'm so much more constructive when I'm not drinking. I think it's criminal that I can't seem to get my hand on the meds for TSM. I don't have funds to go private.

    Anyway. Take care keep posting.
