Very true on the kaka part! I still drink even though I'm not supposed to. Not heavily but if I do overdo it I feel like such crap the next day or a couple of hours later and wonder to myself why the heck am I doing this? Why do I continue to do this? Then I vow never to do it again, and then the next week, I am stressed out and I'm like dam I need a drink! But you know what's funny, this may seem weird but if I'm texting or chatting online with friends I usually say "sipping my drink". So even though I'm having a virtual drink. it feels good without the hangover and pain. Almost like doing the act without doing it. Weird, right? I told my T about the virtual drinks and the occasional slips, and even though he gives me the look of disapproval he is happy that I am honest and I tell him.
All things are good in moderation, so that glass of wine to relieve the day's stress isn't so bad.
