I can remember using anger as an excuse to drink before I got to the point where I didn't need an excuse to drink and just drank.
A lot of my anger ends up turning into resentment and you can't stay sober if you have resentments built up inside you.
That's what I've been working on the most this time around, letting go of resentments, most of which have to do with my workplace.
I've been trying to quit for 6 months and only have 11 days now, but these past 11 days have been the easiest sober time I've had. I've been in some really tempting situations and have managed to walk away.
I think I've finally got the determination, tools and knowledge to beat this.
I've also got a little bit of fear in me again, I had a hard time making it back the last time I relapsed.
