First Stone gone many more to go

[mistyangel]

I get really bad hangovers, i get them when i just look at wine so "justify" that i may as well have a few glasses as have one glass. I always have milk thistle and find taking that before bed with lots of water helps. My biggest problem is that the hangover wames the hunger monster in me.

Wine is my downfall, not had any alcohol in a month and went a bit mad Tuesday after going to class and getting a few awards, I sabotaged it all by going out, having Chicken and Chips (ate it like I have never been fed before)! Then we shared a pile of wine, I thought gone off plan so may as well make it worse! All this knowing I have a family birthday tomorrow night which will definitely involve alcohol. Think because I have been doing great for weeks just felt like I needed a blow out to celebrate complete illogical idiot!!!

I am going to my GP end of March or beginning of April when I am back from Germany. Feel like a fraud about all this as I didn't lose a relative. Don't know why it effected me so much.

He was your neighbour so of course it will have a genuine impact on you xx.

Back to food - can you please send me some cheesecake? Right now? Thank you .

 

[Tessa2000]

Thankfully all cake is nearly gone now. Must get back to healthy eating and less treats.xx

Grief can be a very strange thing. I break up more talking about the death of a particular distant relative than any close ones. I think maybe i feel some guilt about not knowing them enough... Silly i know but if minds were rationale we would all be boring.
Give yourself time, have a good cry, do something in particular to remember or commemorate them. And then see how you feel.

 

[Tessa2000]

Thanks for all your support ladies. You are the best.
Having a really bad day. Struggling with anxiety. Food has been ok though. Xx

 

[ladyfelsham]

Have you got all your meds, hun? See if you can avoid going outside - sit indoors and relax as much as you can - listen to some soothing music or have a nice long soak in the tub - or both xx

 

[Tessa2000]

Still at work at the moment. Long journey home due to rail replacement service. Once home I see what I can do to relax a bit.

 

[ladyfelsham]

Big hugs love, you've got lots of support from different places so don't be afraid to ask for help.

Safe journey home xxx

Holidays always lift the spirits for me - once the actual getting there is over .

Do you have family there?

Hope you get a chance to relax on holiday. A break is great but i find visiting family exhausting no matter how much i love or miss them.
