So I never made it into work today because I am so sick.
I don't know what hit me last night. I hadn't drank in a while, the weather was nice and I decided to stay home, skip working out to drink. What a loser.
My poor child has to put up with me. Luckily, she doesn't see me get rip roaring drunk - I saved that for after bed time.
And for my husband.
I can't stop re-playing the events of last night in my mind. (From what I can even remember.)
My husband is pissed at me. (Rightfully so.)
Hell, I'm pissed at me. Why can't I just drink like a normal person?
Why do I have to turn into an argumentative lunatic when I'm drunk?
Am I alone? Do you feel like this too? How do you make it stop?
How did you stop drinking?
"Sally" you are NOT alone. I could have easily written what you wrote in all of your blog posts. (except I wish I was "just" pushing 30! - LOL :-)
ReplyDeleteI've been drinking since I was 17. I ALWAYS drink to get a buzz otherwise why waste the calories having just one or two drinks?
I really want to stop drinking to improve my health/weight and marriage. I stopped drinking for 3 months last year and felt better physically i.e. slept great, but felt "boring" and avoided social situations at all costs. And here I am back to drinking... same old same old.
I too have "boozy" friends as well and find it hard to be with them when I'm trying to stop drinking. After all that is how our friendship is cemented.
I'm going to try for the umpteenth time to quit drinking TOMORROW. I've made some health goals and drinking won't help me reach them.
Good luck and keep on blogging!
