I'm doing Alcohol Concern's Dry January campaign, for the heck of it, and with colleagues at work.
I've been practicing this month (want to lose a bit of weight) and already I realise, that even though I'm not a daily drinker, it's actually not that easy, because when I feel like having my occasional glass of wine, I want one dammit! And in these winter months I also like a tiny tot of whisky in a medicine glass with a shot of lemon juice and honey of a night 
.
Anyway, the campaign is to raise awareness of people's drinking habits, so I thought I'd give them a little plug, because that's not a bad thing.
One day at a time Fairhair. The only thing to concentrate on at the moment is for you to get yourself well. After that, everything else will fall into place as and when the time is right because you will be well and stronger.
I wish you the very best of luck. Sending you the strongest healing vibes and shed loads of positivity. Sincerely hope all works out well for you.
You have all been so kind...I do thank you and will keep posting.
Good luck fairhair, I could so easily have been in your shoes, but migraines took over my life and I couldn't drink any alcohol for years.
Now, I can only manage one small glass of wine a week, so I have no choice.
You can do it!
