Marning Incheroo.
Was just feeling in quite a good mood this morning, makes a change as I've been clinging to me pillow lately.

Now then our Reccy, forget the 'harm minimisation' thing it covers all sorts. The service you'll be referred to sounds much like ours. The harm minimisation is normally for drug addicts. Clean needles, safe gear that kind of thing. Keeping them healthy until they're ready to make the final leap. And pleased to say it works.

This is the place you'll prolly get the acupuncture, counselling , massage and getting structure into your day.

proper post now: sorry to see so many of you not sleeping well, i think i may have rolled over and crushed the poor sleep fairy last night, been so tired the last couple of days its unbelievable, guessing its a quit related lethargy thing, either way I think if I didn't set alarms I'd be out for about a month xD Got a quiet day at home today, bass teachers on holiday so it'll be doing shopping for my mother, bass practice and finishing the tidying - exciting as ever xD

just skim read so sorry if I miss anybody: well done to questy on sober anniversary, thats real tough and awesome you made it!

I'm with the recovery service at the moment and the guy said the harm minimisation service will help with relapse prevention and stuff, but I do agree with you, it all seems rather back to front to me.

mollyka;1512637 wrote: Yep, my drinking was in full flow when I was in my first few years in the job - I 'got away' with it for several reasons - luck, the 'invisibility' of a middle-aged woman - you know, no one expects you to be in rag order when you're one of them - and I did drink sometimes through the working day - but rarely and mostly just a few slugs just before I'd leave to go to my mums house to mind her - running the horrendous gauntlet of my bitchsista's who were permanently (it seemed) partying over there while she was in bed..... the smell of the drink rather than my behaviour would have been the worry - masked with chewing gum and mouth wash - that sort of thing - I was so tolerant of alcohol back then that I would never have appeared drunk or even 'under the weather' --- for the 3 yrs prior to this spell of sobriety it was several binges which didn't happen in work context so....... yeah - bloody lucky really!!!!
I suspect a fair few of us were fortunate to get away with it. I'm guessing EW wasn't so lucky. Wonder if he'll get an opportunity to log on again soon?

mollyka;1512637 wrote: Shouting ---- mmmm Joe would sympathise with you on the shouting front -- his mother shouted - like SCREAMED - morning noon and night - she was barking mad - when we got married his one request was that there would be no shouting or screaming (my request was that there would be no prolonged angry silences for my own reasons!) he, however, did all the shouting himself in the early days - it's what he grew up with and didn't even know he was doing it...... very sad, sorry you had that with your Dad:l
I can definitely empathise with Joe here. I remember you talking a couple of weeks back about the way the wounds that are done to us in childhood have a big impact on our lives and I reckon in some ways this is a case in point, although admittedly it's not a particularly extreme example.

That's a good idea!!

That sounds delish...don't think anyone's going to be going hungry there! :goodjob:

No sitters again today, but trusting (???!!!!???) the 16 year old to be in charge till hubby gets home at 2.30pm - this could turn out to be disastrous - but needs must.

It was my wedding anny yesterday too - cinema and Frankie and Bennys (all 6 of us - dead romantic )
- but no booze - yay me !!!

Hiya questy! Glad your birthday and anniversary went well and well done on the not drinking!! I don't suppose you've had any news about your dog?

Morning tabbers, Jackie, satzy and inchy :hallo: Struggling to keep up with all the new arrivals!

Go on then rub it in. You'd better have enough money in your retirement fund for a tour of Ireland and England with a quick hop up to Scotland.
