Drink time will always come, whether I'm newly sober or have lots of time under my belt. But as I've progressed in recovery I learn to use new tools and tactics to cope with the cravings.
The witching hour for me is 4:00 PM, that's when I'd start drinking every weekday. Now it's a good time for me to log onto SR, and at 4:30 I head off to a meeting. So far it's working pretty good.
