01/01/2020 Fiona’s alcohol free journey ! Day one!!!
New year eve with friends and their family which ended at the beach watching fireworks and after drinking my last bottle of champagne so there’s nothing left to drink.
I have been waiting for this day to arrive, so I could start reading my new book that I came across online in Google news article called “Mrs D goes without” and I started reading it 1st thing this morning, WOW this illustrates me to a T.
I am an alcoholic and struggling to keep my brain,eyesight and obsessive behavior and thoughts together. I am not a typical alcoholic as I can stop when I have drunken enough and it has been mentioned that I am a lightweight, but the fact remains I continually think about having a beer to chill out ( especially after a busy working day) My brain function has deteriorated over last 10 years and my negative thoughts take over after a drinking binge, usually every Friday and Saturday night.I need to stop drinking and this book is hopefully going to help with my journey to be alcohol free forever. Reading this book has prompted me to start writing a blog to keep track of my journey, (both highs and lows) as mentioned will happen after drinking for the last 40 years.
