I'm proud of you, Camiol. Only three glasses of wine in four hours is not bad at all, under the circumstances. It sounds like you maintained a lot of control tonight. No hangover tomorrow, either. Oh, I have my fingers crossed for your new job....

Not to worry BP....I didn't lose control.  Im stone cold sober because I drank wine over one glass per  more than one hour.  I only had three in 4.5 hours and I'm fine now.  Have a good night.

Camiol, please don't say 'never quit quitting'. Comm'on, be strong.  Remember to control your drinking. 
I havn't touch brandy for 2 weeks and I think I can stop drinking strong alcohol.  I am just taking some cooler for the evening.
Do not let the outer enivornment to interrupt your mood. You are the only master of yourself. When you are in anger and frustrated, try to think about your thread here and so many people chatting under your thread and encourage each other. 
Relax. I wish tomorrow when you sign on to this site again. You are a totally happy woman and your day is full of rainbows.

Hi Marylizy, are you ok?
Yes too much wine is not good to health.  Alternative day to have a glass of wine is good to health. But we have to control the amount of alocohol we intake daily otherwise we will addict to it again.  We are here to help each other to attain 'alcohol free' at least one or two or three days during a week.  Hope we could encourage each and others to achieve the goal.

Turqouise, don't drink too much diet coke, it is not good to health. If you want to drink, drink regular coke.  Go to the website and check the diet coke...or diet something... the chemical for diet is no good to health.  Please watch out.
Wish you good health.

So my day just kept getting worse and I literally snapped in the car on my way to pick up my daughter at summer camp.  I got stuck behind a tractor on the way there that was literally going so slow I couldn't even give my car gas or I'd be going too fast.  I suffer from road rage as it is, but today was the topper.  I did stop and get wine and I've had three glasses in almost 4 hours.  I guess all things considered I didn't do too bad.  I had to keep it under control because I had to bring home work again tonight.  

Thank you for your support ladies, all in all I'm feeling less enraged and less stressed.  I am going to call it a night soon and get a good nights rest.  Til tomorrow.

Hi Hope, hope you are doing fine in your job.  I always wonder, how could you having 6 beers a day, continuously or hours between the 1st and the 2nd.  I rarely drink beer because I have to go to the tiolet once I took a bottle. I prefer red wine, but now I only drink 1 glass or maybe 1 1/2 glass at night. I want to keep it under control.  What kind of beer you used to drink? Maybe I will shift red wine to beer becausue the alcohol content is less.  Please advise.

Hi Camiol,
bad to know that your working environment is not good, but remember, don't let the bad environment to trigger you to drink more.  Job is a job and it is not everything in your life.  We have to work beacuase we have to pay bill, so take it easy. Hope you could remind yourself to control your drink even though you unhappy.  Still best wish to you to have a new job.

Sounds like a bad day...I know the wine sounds like a good thing but probably is not. I know for me it just makes me more emotional and then I blow everything out of proportion. Good luck tonight. Check back in tomorrow...

I'm really annoyed but I'm convinced I will come out on top... I have an unusual amount of drive and I'm sure that will keep me moving forward; after all, I still have an appointment with my brand new doctor this week, so maybe I can talk to her and she might have some other ideas for me :)
