The Beer Garden

The Beer Garden

i encourage you all to join me for some casual drinking, social lubrication and light laughter right here in the beer garden.

Oh and before anyone gets up in arms about alcohol and its dangers the main beer on tap is VB or virtual beer

beer is the third most commonly consumed drink in the world behind water and tea

why not share the worlds joy with friends

Re: The Beer Garden

thank you your words mean a lot and I have talked to my husband tonight. he organised dinner. I feel that some headway has been made. I have had a text message from my son. I have also managed to avoid feelings of guilt most of the time today. I realise that it will be a long journey but at least I have had a little relief today when I could not see through the fog so thank you for listening and being there. I also responded to someone else who is new on here and was concerned that might need immediate attention. so I pointed out the phone no if wanted to speak to someone sooner and that people would respond to him he would not be ignored. hope that was ok not really sure if I did the right thing or not

Hi @Former-Member

It sounds like you did fine. If it was the Sane Helpline, it has particular operating hours, but there will be a message saying so. I will have a quick look around the threads and see if I can pick up where they posted.

I am glad you are feeling better, and shrugging off the guilt, and that you have received some support regarding dinner - those little things can mean a lot when you are short on energy and brain-space. Glad too that you have heard from your son. Hopefully things will sort out a bit more comfortably sooner than later.

Keep your courage up, and keep posting .... there's almost always somebody about.

Hi @Shaz51 and @Former-Member

Yes, Abbotsford has one, I think a couple of others as well. I didn't know about the high sugar, low alcohol bit. I do know the first time I had it, I downed a stubby and found myself legless for a while 🙂

Guess who rarely touches alcohol? hahahaha Gave my brother a good chuckle 🙂

Hi @Former-Member

I also find that if I drink the stout before bed, it makes me drowsy (probably tipsy lol) and helps to get to sleep.

Haven't done it for, maybe a year or more, though, as iron is good at the moment

🙂

Hi @Former-Member 🙂

I used to do that a lot on the previous site I was on, too. I mean, replying to newbies.

I'm not on here much though 🙂

Hi @BlueBells Hehe! Probably tiddly. 😂

I don't drink alcohol anymore. 😊

It's my daughter who has low iron. She's underage. 😀
That doesn't seem to stop teenagers from drinking unfortunately, but so far she hasn't wanted to start.

Hmm! Never did like the taste of beer. 🍺

Re: The Beer Garden

Hi @Former-Member .... 😊

Can your daughter eat nuts ? I found them a good way of keeping my teens up in iron and other minerals.

G'night .... sleep well ....hope you feel stronger tomorrow ....

❤️💕

Re: The Beer Garden

Well I guess I should say, I very rarely drink alcohol @BlueBells 😀
I hope you sleep well and have a nice day tomorrow. 🌻🌼🌺


She eats nuts occasionally. Not a big eater of nuts. 😊 @Faith-and-Hope.
She's very low, feels faint if she doesn't have her iron.
I researched and found out the most natural tablet and she takes it with Vit C to help absorption.
Anyway, I better try and sleep, didn't sleep well last night. Had to take med 2am, no wonder I was tired today. Rather not take them. 5 hours shopping, not bad though, lol.
I read on other thread you've been really tired, I hope you sleep well and feel better tomorrow. 😙❤🌷🌺🌻🌼
