At 5:35 p.m. my husband came home from work and said, don't start dinner yet, I need to get a buzz! Damn, this is the hard part. He doesn't have the same problem I have, he can have 2 or 3 beers and stop. I won't drink tonight, as last night I over did it and don't feel like drinking at all, for now.
Hi LL
ReplyDeleteThat must be tough wanting to give up when you have a partner who drinks (albeit differently).
https://ainsobriety.wordpress.com/ must have some tips on this... I think she mentioned that her and her husband were at different stages for a while some years back.
Go you - keep writing it down!

Thank you for the tip. Yes, it's hard, as my husband thinks if I only drink beer, I'm okay. But the problem is I drink too much beer, then I get to where I want to drink stronger alcohol, wine, spirits, whatever, as to get even more drunk. It's such a vicious cycle. I wish it were different, but it's not. Thank you for the encouragement. Your blog (along with many others) has inspired me. May this be the beginning!
DeleteGreat Lia :)
DeleteIt's not about the alcohol at all is it - it's about getting out of your mind, getting drunk, getting high.

I miss you M! I hope you are well and safe. And to answer your comment, yes, it is about getting out of your mind, by getting drunk and/or high. I need to get high by non-harmful ways. Miss you M!
