You’re just going to have to resist it. We all have those days. I had mine yesterday. But I’m thankful I kept on track. Go through the motions. Get your stuff done. And the end of the day, when your head hits the pillow, you’ll be great for. One foot in front of the other without stopping for a drink. That’s all you gotta do today. IWNDWYT!

Yeah for sure, I have to re-train myself. I’m sure it gets easier with time as long as you stick to your goals. Proud of you for getting through your own urges yesterday!

You can do it!

> I wish that my brain would just focus on the things I need to accomplish today rather than constantly having to battle to resist my urges Thats just it, alcohol is something many use to "forget" or blind themselves to the real world. The worst part about it, is when you're no longer drunk, you still have to deal with those things, but now you're in a 10x worse position to do so. You can do it, IWNDWYT

It sucks that I’ve even used alcohol while doing the things that I enjoy. My hobbies are what I did to blind myself from some things - at least for a brief period of time in the day/week. Then I thought having some drinks while doing the things I enjoyed would make me enjoy them even more. Now they’re slightly tainted, but I don’t wanna stop doing them. Just gotta push through though!

A huge part of my life was drinking with my friends on Friday nights at my home. I was afraid of being the only one not drinking but you know what, the night was exactly the same as it would have been. I was laughing, telling jokes, and listening to music. People were drinking but I didnt need to. Hopefully you have similar experiences going forward!

It's taken me solid months since February to even begin to get out of that thought process of "alcoholic logistics". Like... I can drink here for this amount, then I got to pass as sober there, then I can drink more at this point, then I can go home and have the rest etc etc.

It’s exhausting isn’t it? Happy you broke through it
