Day 3 and counting

[Clanger152]

Yay I made it past day 2 and now feel confident that I can go another day without giving in to the demon that is alcohol. Slightly worried that my habit of picking up a bottle of wine on way out of work might kick in but my plan is to walk the opposite way to bws dept. If I can do that today I can do it tomorrow too🤞

Don’t worry about tomorrow. We only do this one day at a time. I ask myself often, “Do I have a drink in my hand?” And in each moment, I don’t.

By the way, congratulations for making it another day.

If you’d be interested, I have a link for online AA meetings. I make one on Zoom every morning. It helps get me through the day.

Yes please that might be useful. Thank you for your support, it means a lot to know that other people care. Living alone means I can hide how much I (used to) drink so being accountable on here even though it's anonymous has made me realise I'm not in this on my own x

I PMd you.

I know where you're coming from. That's why I need to stop. You have my support❤️

Admitting you’re an alcoholic is a very big step. You were able to stop in AA. Maybe think about trying it again? We’re here for you, Sweetheart.
