Only just seen this WW. I hope tomorrow is a better day for you

**worrywart** · 03-06-2011, 07:54am

Thank you all. I am just so glad I have this place to sound off. I stopped me doing lots of things last night and I sent myself off to bed before I got really really drunk, which actually feels quite positive this morning. And it means I am not hungover.

Thank you again

I will reply to pm's after work.

**Anne** · 03-06-2011, 07:56am

Good, glad your ok this morning.

**fifitrix** · 03-06-2011, 08:03am

Ah well done ww

Hopefully you can see that you have the strength to do this

**Becci** · 03-06-2011, 10:14am

I'm another one who hasn't been posting - but keep wanting to check in on you and see how you are doing. I have no advice that I can add, I just hope that you are able to find the support that you need to help you through this xx

**worrywart** · 05-06-2011, 04:21pm

Thank you all. Having a bit of a rough time today, but will get over it I am sure.

Am having a glass of wine, then going to bed.

Just blah today.

**Helski** · 05-06-2011, 04:30pm

I have been following too but unsure what to say.

Keep talking hun, there's always someone here for you.

Oh and remember that just because you feel like this now, doesn't mean you always will. Just allow yourself to imagine that one day you'll be free from this.

Take care x

Hi WW, OH and I have been away for the weekend in our 'Love Shack' so have not been around here. If you need to PM please feel free and don't beat yourself up about how you feel, you are a human being not a machine. Take good care ok xxx

**worrywart** · 09-06-2011, 07:13pm

Haha am here tonight! its drinkie night and I have been making the most of it. Will feel like shit very sonn and moaning but feels good right noe.

shit am messing up.

**worrywart** · 09-06-2011, 07:43pm

Sorry that sounded like I thought it was funny. I don't. I know will feel like shit ein the morning and I know the shityy messages I am sending on FB will come back to bit eme but I need to get through tonight to get to tomorrow. If I don't ... I haven't a clue. I know I have done one thing to make me feel better that will make me feelw worse tomorrow but hey ho thats life.

I don't know how to stop this cycle.

**worrywart** · 09-06-2011, 07:47pm

Gah to make it worse, I was talking to a friend about something very important and she juts went offline- totally. I trie to call and nada. How to add to the shite!

**Chickenlips** · 09-06-2011, 07:49pm

Hey, why don't you shut the PC off? Find a decent, harmless film and concentrate on that this evening? Just remind yourself of that awful feeling when you wake tomorrow, save yourself the heartache Hun xxx

**worrywart** · 09-06-2011, 07:52pm

Because I need to talk to someone. I have so much in my head and feel like utter shite and don't want to be alone. Hence posting on here.
I have had no interntet all evening- until now and it killed me as I had no one wround me.

Thanks for your reply though

nice to know someone reads me!

**Chickenlips** · 09-06-2011, 07:55pm

I can't comment on the drinking as I am pretty certain I use (or used to) use alcohol as a a coping mechanism and I remember that feeling in the morning, I'd look at my phone and groan and hate myself.

If I could give myself advice now, it would have been to turn the PC off!

**skylark** · 09-06-2011, 07:56pm

Well you can post all the crap you like on here, but if you can close FB. We know what you are fighting with and know where you are coming from. There is no need to tempt fate and rant on FB because as you have said there is a good chance it will come back to you.

**worrywart** · 09-06-2011, 08:08pm

I am not potsing on FB but chatting. I know the person I was chatting to and its ok. But even still i dont wan to let go of t'inernet as its my lifeline
if it comes back to me then shite happnes. haha.
