moment of weakness

I guess this isn't really a question but I thought I would share. I just had a moment of weakness and poured myself a drink in an attempt to bury my insecurities. BUT!...I took 3 drinks and poured it down the sink. I may have made the drink and had a few drinks of it but I stopped myself :) I'm pretty proud of myself. I just wanted to share that because for me, writing it down makes it true.  :)

You rant anytime you need to Cici! It in someway probably helps you not to drink. Work on the best way to get back to your 110!

I hope it will because my self-esteem is terrible, I think its mainly cuz I weigh 150lbs now and I was 110 and ugh. Sorry, I just felt like ranting. Thanks Randy :)

Cici we as alcoholics train our minds to react that way every time there is a problem. I got some pretty bad news in the mail today myself and the first thing I thought to do was have a drink!

That lasted two seconds though and now here I sit angry and planning the smartest way to deal with it. Every action deserves a well thought out reaction. Take this advice and it will help you get ahead in life :)

This will also help your self-confidence

I have very low self-confidence and ever since I stopped drinking I've gained 40 pounds, and I stepped on the scale and freaked out and wanted a drink. I know, lame excuse.

Thats very good Cici! Your a smart young lady to realize what you need to do and to actually do it. It takes alot of inner strength and endurance. I wish you the very best! :)
