Campral Great!

Hi everyone. I'm still taking the Campral... it's the best decision I ever made... the stuff is great! I don't crave alcohol anymore... my desire to drink and get drunk is gone!!

The guy at the hospital said I wouldn't be able to get sober... well I just proved him wrong! I can do it... I haven't touched wine since I started the meds... and that was my vice...

My thanks to Ginge for turning me onto Campral...

And thanks to everyone else for encouraging me...

From Las Vegas tonite.....
Izzy, That's great news! I'm so happy for you! So glad the Campral is working for you.

Ginge, Play a dollar for me buddy!
Hey Ginge... I think you're the legend lol!!!
Las Vegas... eh? That must be an experience!!!

VWGirl... thanks. I've never felt so good about myself. My dad today reduced me to tears after I said I had to go to the shop to get toilet rolls and veg for my rabbit... he said I was going to get drink too... which wasn't true... so i got quite upset. My mum told him to apologise to me but I wont get it. he's not man enough...

Izzy, again, I'm happy you are feeling well and that you are sober! You just keep taking the high road in regard to those situations with your Dad and stay sober; you're doing great....I'm so glad you didn't react to the negativity that was thrown your way today.
Hey Izzy,

well another day has slipped us by, Hope all is still good with you, Keep us updated on the Campral girl!

VW Lost ya dollar sorry, and 200 of me own, damn flashing lights at casinos!
Had a quick look around, only got 4 hrs sleep and drove to a place called Rock springs tonite in Wyoming? dont no if i spelt that correctly, Man this is a huge country just awesome, I get the sence of freedom driving out on the Highways , more than I do on a bike,
Last nite the cocktail lady came by and said "cocktail Sir" I had pleasure in saying no thanks water would be fine,
So good to be sober and alive,
Gnite freinds

Hey Ginge, That's not bad only $200.00 down...but regardless of losing the money, you've hit the best jackpot of all sobriety thru it all...I'll send you an email from work tomorrow. Have a restful night (you too Izzy!)
Hey Izzy congradulations on not drinking, and i can tell you from experience that people will think you will or have been drinking at times and all you can do is just keep sober one day at a time, I even used to panic if i tripped over because i would think people would think that i was drunk so i have to remember WHAT OTHER PEOPLE THINK OF ME IS NONE OF MY BUISNESS and I always add what I think other people think of me is none of my buisness.
There will always be people who want us to drink, there will always be people who don't, at the end of the day as long as we don't want to drink, thats all that matters.
Start to build your support network Izzy and also have some plans ready if you get mucked around on your meds in the future, get busy in AA as you will meet people like yourself with heaps of gratitude for being sober.
One day at a time Izzy good on ya

Light and love Zac
Hey all... Ginge Zac VWGirl!...

I haven't let what my dad say get to me. if he wants me to fail that's his problem but I don't need his crap in my life. I want to be happy not wallowing in my own misery like he does... he's not an example to follow and I realise that...

I will succeed and be sober and happy and able to work. I will make good friends but first I have to learn to love myself because if i can't love myself I can't love anyone.

So... like I said before. Campral is my one step closer to accepting me for me... BPD and all...

Thanks for all your support. It means a lot to me... that's to everyone else... Idgie Valarie and anyone else I've forgotten.

Peace...

Great job Izzy! You're doing terrific!
izzy
fantastic you are making such great progress - maybe you can't see it yet but it shows in your posts :)

How's the art classes going?

so proud of what you're doing for yourself.

PS Zac I like that saying, think I will print that one out and put over my desk at home and work.
Hey Izzy,
just checkin on you!
Good to see you still on track!!!!
Go Girl!!!!
Ginge, Omaha tonite, nearly home!
Hi Idgie... The art classes start again next week...

I saw the Psychiatrist today... she said I looked really well... and said I was doing really well. She was surprised the GP gave me Campral as she was under the impression the Hospital had to give it out under supervision. But I told her I got really angry at the guy in the Hospital and that I wasn't impressed... Anyway I'm more than a week and a half sober... and I'm doing ok.

Hope you are well Idgie???
Hi Ginge...
And VWGirl... and Zac...
