I feel like I'm on a good path so far. The 3 days on,1 day off is leading to 6 in 7 days dry where I was drinking almost every day. And on that 1 day, so far able to control myself and think about calories. Drunk fizzy pop last few days instead of alco free so I'm pleased about that too...this 4th day thing is what I'm going concentrate on next ... But for now, I'm no longer drinking when kids are in bed and love feeling fresh as a daisy doing my dairy on apps and searching for activities.
Must admit, I don't like the feeling of people in the group looking for me/us/them to fail, but if we don't like things,can chose not to take advice I guess! Just unfortunate that people will shy away from a group that should be/could be potentially helpful.
Thanks for whoever listened on my first opening up, I have now spoken to my therapist who actually made me feel so relieved. I'll work with them moving forward π
