Alf Hartigan Posted February 12, 2017 Posted February 12, 2017 Youri, you sound like a good lad, hope you  can get out of it and stay sober, i know it's easier said than done, all the best with it. Quote
Youri McAnespie Posted February 13, 2017 Author Posted February 13, 2017 Cheers Alf, but it's been a fucking ordeal at The Macron sober No, it'll be reet. Quote
bolty58 Posted February 13, 2017 Posted February 13, 2017 Bloody hell Youri - sorry to hear this. Â As others have said, this place is a good one for support. Â You can beat it - I know a good few who have mate. Quote

Â I'll sort mesen out, It's been a bit emotional to have the support of the lads on here, got me through a bit of a ropey patch. Cheers fellas. Quote
Ani Posted February 13, 2017 Posted February 13, 2017 Would echo what others have said, but also if you are serious about get professional help. Quote
Zico Posted February 13, 2017 Posted February 13, 2017 One day at a time mate  You just hit the reset button on holiday, that's all  Still dissapointed bout you not getting you're end away though Quote
Biggish Dave Posted February 13, 2017 Posted February 13, 2017 I like a beer as much as the next man but it isn't a problem turning it down for me - but I can easily understand it can does become a problem. Keep yourself away from temptation, easier said than done I know. Get out and about walking or down the gym etc. Â Best of luck with knocking it on the head. I'm sure it won't be easy but it's better than the alternative Quote
jturner Posted February 13, 2017 Posted February 13, 2017 Been there myself Youri, and not to belittle the problem, for me it was surprisingly easy to just give it up and never touch it again.The only really difficult occasions were works dos but im old enough to have got over that now, its over 20 years since I touched a drop.It wasnt even a problem the first few days, I was very ill and couldn't have faced any anyway.Going on a diet I find is harder, once you've eaten something which you have to do, the craving to carry on is there.With booze without taking any the craving soon goes and doesn't come back. Quote
Tonge moor green jacket Posted February 13, 2017 Posted February 13, 2017 For different reasons (epilepsy etc) I've not touched a drop since January fourth last year. Occasionally fancy a beer, especially if wife is having one, but generally don't miss it at all. Â It is doable. Good luck. Quote
kent_white Posted February 13, 2017 Posted February 13, 2017 Keep on keeping on Youri..... Â Things might seem a little easier back home! Quote
birch-chorley Posted February 13, 2017 Posted February 13, 2017 Good luck Youri  Sure you will bounce back Quote
Winchester White Posted February 13, 2017 Posted February 13, 2017 Once back to the routine of home you might be right as rain pal. Good luck with it. Quote
MancWanderer Posted February 13, 2017 Posted February 13, 2017 Good luck Youri. My only advice is get help when you get home. My brother in law left it too long and has been in a Priory Clinic for the last week. He finally saw sense and checked himself in but was in a right mess Quote
jules_darby Posted February 13, 2017 Posted February 13, 2017 We're all with you Youri ???????? Â Just think of the added benefit of not spending money on booze - you'll clear out the whoopsy aisle Quote
Sweep Posted February 13, 2017 Posted February 13, 2017 Chin up Youri, one day at a time and all that. Â Remember, Crusty Pippin will always be there for you Quote
gonzo Posted February 13, 2017 Posted February 13, 2017 Get back, get in a routine and keep that mind occupied. Â Go running. Every time you crave a beer etc go for a run. If you still want one after. Go for another. Â Keep busy mate. You'll be reet. Quote
no balls Posted February 13, 2017 Posted February 13, 2017 Gonzo has it right. Routine and keeping busy are key to not falling off the wagon. That and being a fat fucker who's trying to stick to a strict diet Good luck and all that. Quote
RoadRunnerFan Posted February 13, 2017 Posted February 13, 2017 All the best getting yourself sorted mate. Â As others have said excercise will help you. Â You'll be back to your best, kicking arses in the Whoopsie aisle before you know it. Â Seriously though, sorry to hear this. Get yourself some help, you'll be reet. Quote
MickyD Posted February 13, 2017 Posted February 13, 2017 Don't treat not drinking as an event, treat not drinking as the norm. Good luck in your efforts. Quote
Spider Posted February 13, 2017 Posted February 13, 2017 There's some heartbroken shopkeepers in Great Lever. Â Stay strong You fucking maniac. Quote
