Two years ago today I was sitting at home thinking "why can't I stop drinking" my reasons at the time were. I've been drinking for too long I can't change. I am addicted to alcohol, I've tried pills, hypnotherapy, councillors nothing has worked and nothing will ever work. I am too sneaky, I hide my… Continue reading Two years alcohol free

AM : Wed – Day 524 (exiting news)
Today I am on day 524 (just over 17 months AF). I will never get used to saying or writing this. Its like having an out of body experience. I used to read about people who had given up for a year and thought "wow! Wish I could do that. It will never happen to… Continue reading AM : Wed – Day 524 (exiting news)
AM: Tuesday – Day 510
I am still rocking my new AF life. 510 days sober (I don't think I will ever stop feeling in awe of those numbers). Did I do that.. Really.. Really really.. Well. Yep I did. Day 1 seems a long way off but the days before day 1 are there in my mind like bad… Continue reading AM: Tuesday – Day 510
AM : Wednesday – Day 411
Jut wanted to share how I felt yesterday evening. I'm currently on holiday in Seminyak Bali. Oh still drinks but that doesn't matter, its no big deal. I can still laugh and be silly without alcohol. When he says he fancies a cold beer I can say.. Oh yes sounds good. I know exactly how… Continue reading AM : Wednesday – Day 411
PM : Friday – Day 365
Well here we are. The day has finally arrived when I can say I am 1 year sober! Never have I ever been sober this long. I am truly blessed. I have posted this today on a Facebook group that I belong to which has helped me enormously. It is a group for graduates of… Continue reading PM : Friday – Day 365
AM : Wednesday – Day 363
Well I never! DAY 363... Just checked my "days since" widget about 10 times and yes it's definitely Day 363. How did the days suddenly become nearly a year. The last couple of weeks have been a massive turning point for me. I haven't felt "cheated" I haven't felt like I "would love" a glass… Continue reading AM : Wednesday – Day 363
PM : Sunday – Day 346
So I am just over 49 weeks AF. Just celebrated my birthday (first one AF) - not sure how I feel today. Tired, a bit nervy (those pesky I haven't done very much so I am going to feel guilty and nervy type of nerves) used to have them everyday but since being AF not… Continue reading PM : Sunday – Day 346
AM : Tuesday – 11 months
Today I wake up 11 months Alcohol Free! That sounds so weird! Nearly a year. The cheated feeling I had at Xmas has left me and been replaced with feeling grateful, extremely thankful that I have chosen to live AF. Living Alcohol free, a tee totaller, sober, words that I associated with greater mortals. Not… Continue reading AM : Tuesday – 11 months
PM : Sunday – late afternoon – Day 318
Day 318 ..... It's a Sunday and I am just about to make some dinner for the 45th week without consuming a bottle of wine pre cooking and then another post cooking!! Truly amazing and would never have thought that this was possible. It definitely has been one of the hardest things to get my… Continue reading PM : Sunday – late afternoon – Day 318
AM : Friday – Day 302
Just realised in the last 2 days I have definitely felt calmer, I've noticed this in situations that before being sober I would have definitely glugged a bottle of wine. For instance - January, busiest and most stressful month of the year for me workwise. I would get home and think "I need a drink"… Continue reading AM : Friday – Day 302
