Waking Up happy is a community just for us women in midlife, who want to change their relationship with alcohol. Not necessarily to stop drinking, but definitely to have a good look at its place in our lives. This is a forum for exchange, not a place for judgement or lectures. I want you to feel that you can come in and explore any part the female midlife experience and alcohol in a friendly space. You might feel a bit weird being here at first. Feel free to move around the site, join a conversation or just read through the resources. If you want to discuss something, but don’t want to start a conversation just yet, message me and I’ll start a new thread using your prompt. Use a name and identity that you feel comfortable with: it doesn’t have to be the one you use elsewhere. The main thing is that you feel relaxed and at home. So we can get to know each other, it would great if you introduce yourself here and share a picture of your favourite houseplant.
