    Buddy up anyone?

    Morning, afternoon or evening guys and girls,

    I am looking for someone who would like to join me on a 30 day A/F followed by a slow intro to life as a moderate drinker (fingers crossed tightly).

    I have now attempted to A/F 3 times and although I find this site incredibly good and amazingly supportive I would like to work with a group of members who would like to A/F at the same time so I can offer support to others and receive support (please) and understand how the other is feeling.

    I have seen these types of requests before but am unsure how people keep a thread going? I am

    Is there anyone who would like to join me please?

              P.S. If you want to check out the Mod Squad thread there are quite a few of us "modders" who are going to be putting in 30 days for August.

I wish i could hide somewhere for a month - i am so sick of stress and pressure hubby is about to loose his job i am the main bread winner and i detest my job - honestly i don't know how i didn't cry at my desk today. I would like not to be the one with the financial pressure for once. This is my second marriage and i am extremely happy with my husband and i love him to bits and my beautiful children.... i would love to have a normal job - without being a high flyer (well thats what i used to be before loosing my brother to suicide and my 1st husband to my best mate leavin me with a 4month old baby) now i a low flying looser still being paid a high flyers job... dont get me wrong i deliver but its nothin like i used to do..... i see it a hell of a lot on this site... i think i have burnt out, what i would love is the opportunity to make myself better without work - but that cant be, how do i do the job that i do and get better?? will i look back one day when my whole life has passed me by and regret that i didnt put the breaks on??? what the flip shall i do - i dont know and i am just typing out loud because no one knows appart from you lot how dreadfully dreadfully tired and down i am sorry for chewing your ears :l :upset:

                    Hey Hdb, I'm starting AF for at least two weeks and would love to join you. Like you, I have tried in the past and seem to get over confident and think I can drink moderately way too early and without the support that is so readily available here. This time I told hubby that if I seem like I am "checked" out that I was working on my drinking problem with the help of this program. Now I don't have to sneak in the computer and cd time. I will have a vacation in two weeks, so I'm a little worried about making it through those few days. If I plan to drink beer I'll be ok, cuz it sucks on the topa. Count me in today. Keke

                      Thank you so much one2many your kind words made me cry x You are correct one thing at a time - i know i am also very very very lucky to have my husband and beautiful children - that on its own should be enough, i am ashamed that i haven't done it for them alone. do you ever wish that you could stop being an adult and return to that little girl for a while that you used to be so your mum could make things better - i wish i could return to that for just one month

                      thanks again one2many :l

                          PS - Just read the post about the job woes. The alcohol just makes it worse. I agree with one2many - build on what you have and feel proud of what you have accomplished so far. I no longer have to work, but my alcohol problem didn't go away when my home life improved - I married a wonderful man who only drinks on occasion. He doesn't think, or won't admit that I have a problem. I had to tell him today that I needed his support without his trying to control me. I used to say to myself "if I had a better job, husband, or didn't work that I could focus on me. Well, everything fell into place and I still drink too much. I guess I am the only one who can change my behavior. I'm here to help support your efforts and I trust that you are here to help mine. I do feel for you. Come to this site instead of the bottle. It's much more rewarding!!!! Keke
