i probably DO drink too much, and i shouldnt be drinking through the week but it helps with my selfharming.
and no, but i dont think i need support or anything, i just like a drink. and i just feel pretty shit for not keeping my word.
Sorry you're feeling like you've let your teacher down and thanks for being so honest and opening up on the boards.
Although it may feel like you've failed, not drinking for 5 days in itself is an achievement, and it's important to remember that. The fact that you tried to stop in the first place is half the battle. If you decide that you do want to cut down your drinking further, maybe this article will give you some tips on how to drink less.
You clearly respect your teacher, and the fact that he set you the challenge not to drink for ten days (as hard as it may be) shows that he has your best interests at heart - he cares. Maybe it would be worth sitting down with him and telling him how you're feeling?
I hope you're feeling a bit better about yourself and do keep posting
:yes: Small steps and all that.
and yeah, i just feel annoyed with myself about not managing to do it, but im sure i'll get there (:
I think you should be more worried about the issue you have than how someone might behave towards you, should they find out your problem.
I think that you've just proven something different.
i'm meant to be speaking to my pupil support teacher about it tomorrow, so i'll see how that goes.
How did it go with your Pupil Support Teacher today?
it went alright thanks.. she offered me some help with things, so i'll have to see how things go after the holidays
