This time I gave up on NYD and went to see a hypnotherapist...

...the next day to give me added strength...had some cravings after a week but was OK...

Since then I have good days and bad days, no pattern really...if I feel like I'm in danger of falling off the wagon and I'm due to go out I don't go out...

I read a few years ago that if you try to give up and you fail, don't beat yourself up about it, brush yourself down and try again when you're ready as it is just a matter of time before your wave comes in and you suceed - that's the logic I'm following...

        I think the "don't go out" idea is a darn good one (General Chat) - pieman63, Feb 16, 10:26:03
