SATURDAY 28 FEBRUARY – Where did the day go? Stayed up until six in the morning (and I’ve slep till five in the evening) txting a mate who’s in second stage rehab. Another one who’s addiction is controlled and encouraged by a bad relationship. Escapism. It’s so easy to fall into it, but when it grips you from alcohol to drugs, the addiction, need and demand drags you into its sticky web like a fly to a spider.

FRIDAY 27 FEBRUARY – I’m burying myself in preparing the powerpoint presentation for the Dual-Diagnosis conference next Friday. That and meeting up with an old mate for lunch. And an 80 miles round trip. Will I survive 86400 x 2??? I tell you 172800 times, YEEEEES!!!... Read More

TUESDAY 24 FEBRUARY – My cold is really wearing me down. A bottle of whisky and green ginger wine would shift it. But no no no. Old behaviour. Have to be feet up in front of the telly, stay warm if a little bored. Fight the triggers and negatives, stay calm and lose any track of time. Lots to do tomorrow. Stay focussed. Completed my assertiveness paper to submit tomorrow. That’s excellent, especially given my headache. Champions League tonight, yeeeees.... Read More
