Awww Zontar - that was such a lovely post! I am so happy to read of the changes for you - yes Nal truly is a miracle isn't it? And as you said, people just need to stick with it - for me it didn't even happen gradually - it was overnight so that hopefully is motivation for anyone to stick with it !

I love the things that you listed that have changed for you - it made me SO happy for you all over again! I am sitting here with a big smile on my face!

Please post now and then and so to keep us updated with the on-going good news!!

hugs, Maggie xx

yes maggie, it didn't happen as "abruptly" as your experience, but when I lost interest in AL if hit me pretty hard. I would go out and expect to be drunk a few hours later and it didn't happen. how strange!!!!!

started another 5-day AL-free "bender" last night. had an incredibly stressful week, so I thought going fri-tues without AL would be a good plan. wish me luck!

Good luck Zontar!

I have a bad habit of turning to alcohol when I am stressed (well any emotion really), and I admire you for wanting to have an AF binge. It if will help I will be starting my AF binge with you starting today, so you will not be alone. I am having some drywall repaired and the stress from having a mess and strangers in my house will cause that desire to peak. This sounds like a good time to stop old habits and find new one. I am glad you are doing this.

Nal on,

Jaba

yeah, jaba, I could feel the bad energy starting to peak going into the weekend, and figured I had no business going in to the weekend with an attitude and a drink. glad you're on board too! I'm getting crap done and I have some energy left over.

Maggie dear, I KNOW you will join me. you're AF all the time now! can you believe it?
