Hey mr T,that's me back,did send you an email,not sure if you got it or not.Am so glad i didn't drink when things got really tough,but me as usual to proud to ask for help,but found the courage to go to the doctor and told him how i was feeling,so he put me on 40mg of prozac to start with i really thought i was losing my mind,but feeling a little better everyday but it's good to be back.Chat soon Dana.
How you doing lovely Mr T? Hope all's well with you, I'm doing GRRRRREAT- Just like Tony the Tiger!
Wee bit of cold, bit bunged up & sniffly but my lovely hubby has just nipped down the road to get my a subway!!! The great joy of living right in the centre of town :o)
I'll have been sober 150 days next Thursday, still can't quite believe it myself. Way to go you for your continued sobriety Daivid you're also just like Tony GRRRREAT. Very sad news bout Dana going I hope she's not drinking again that'd be a real shame when she was doing so well.
I'm off to AA tonight, seem's to be helping in me staying sober so who can (or should!) knock it? How do you manage to keep yourself sober, do you ever go to AA meetings?
All power to you Mr T, keep on keeping on & talk again sn I hope, H xx
Hey David, I am v.lucky with the aa group in my town, like I said there's no pressure whatsoever to do the Steps & the whole aa philosephy is not thrown at you every meeting or rammed down your neck. Like all aa meetings it's started the same-reading the traditions, steps, pre-amble...But after that it's upto you to take control of your recovery. Some follow the aa doctrine to the letter, some (like me! What a rebel I am!) don't. I love the fact that everyone there in the 3 weekly groups is so willing & reading to help you, whatever path you choose to take to get/stay sober. I see myself as a Cherry Picker with regards to aa, I pick & choose the parts I know will help me personally & the parts which'll keep me sober - That can only be a good thing?
How you doing anyway Mister? I hope all's well for you. I'm out to an Anne Summers party Sat eve, then onto a club with a group of about 20 friends! I'm fucking shitting myself bout the club, I have never been to a club sober. Told them I may only stay for half an hr or so, not sure if I'll be able to stand much longer tahn that!!
Best wishes to ya Mr T, always a pleasure to hear from you. Take it easy, Love H, xx

Hey David, Hope you're group went well the other day. I can 100% relate to you when you say how easy it is to convince yourself that you're in a place where you know you will Never drink again. It's that compacancy (sp?) in the past which has ended up with me in a whole heap of shit! I've been to an aa meeting this week, it's the only group in my small town where i can talk to other alcoholics face2face. I like the group though, Know some of the faces from round the town where i live & they're all good pple, The 12 Steps are not shoved down your throat & you're recovery & how you wish to progress with it is completely left down to you.
I'm bloody knackered atm, went to see my dr & she's told me I'm severely anaemic - bummer. Got some iron tablets though & with a bit of rest & lots of spinach I'm hoping to be feeling better sn. Best wishes to you Mr T &keep up the good work - you're doing GR8! Love H, xx
Hey there David, how are you? I hope all's good & you're not working yourself to death!
I've just got out the hospital after an operation so haven't been anywhere or done anything other than lie on the couch in pain! On the mend now though so hope to be back to normal soon. What you been upto? Anything interesting or fun? Best Wishes to you, hope to chat soon. H, xx
Hey David, how you doing geezer? I hope all's well with you. I'm good, busy with my little girl, enjoying the last week of the summer hols with her. What you been up to anything interseting? Love H xx
Hey how you doing? Hope all's well with you & you're being good ;o)
Whatcha been upto? Anything interesting? I'm off to cookery classes with my little one, I'm hoping we're going to do cakes today as I feel the need for sugar! If not I'll have to go & pick up some giant cupcakes from Marks & Sparks, they are so scrummy & just what I need! Hope to hear from you soon, H x
