Thank you. We can report together! I am still drinking way too much. I tend to derail also when on vacation (it's vacation, starting at lunch is fine, when I know it is not). And then I came home and two days later found the drug dealers in my house (my sonhad gone to school and left them here, he has antisocial personality disorder). It wasn't the drug dealing aspect of it per se, it was that I asked them to leave four times over two hours and they would not. They were looking at me like bitch make us. I had never met them, my son comes from the ghetto, finally I told them I would call the cops. I was getting ready to leave and do so when they finally left, taking many items, including an ipad.
Anyway, back to the real topic. Although I am still at high levels, 9 glasses of wine daily, it is an improvement and I no longer have withdrawal symptoms, although I do have cravings starting at about 5. My appetite is improving and I think I will be able to exercise today. I have an appointment with my therapist, but the week after next because we will be travelling next week. Tapering will be a challenge while on the road but I hope to be down to five glasses daily when I meet her. Every drink not drunk is a success, but I think a slow taper is a better idea for me this time. Good luck to both of us and please report.
