I'm doing really well,,..Day 3 again...My little 2 day weekend drunk gave me little more than a hung over Monday...

Bdiddy.. you're doing so well and whatever it is..the meetings.. a change of basic thinking...whatever, you keep it up dude,... it's working for you and it's evident.

Thing for me is..when they say you 'can't do it alone'..oh yes
for sure that is true...

BUT...

It does have to come from the heart of your soul, from the inside.

It's a choice that you have to make, to be a non-drinker, and it's a choice you make alone.

It is a 'solo' decision and it does take 'willpower' or whatever.

In the end, you really do have to do it alone.

I went 6 months this year,
No meetings,
No sponsor..
Nothing...

Except...I guess I had a self mental-transformation ...to turn myself into a 'non-drinker'....and that seemed to work..for me...for a while.

No support system at all besides this SR website.

In reality, I had probably been doing the steps all by myself.


Just simply became a non drinker..
(No thanks, I don't drink!)
Easy enough to say, but when you believe it.....it works!

Seemed to work for a while for me, so why can't it stick?

I dunno...guess the alcoholic voice doesn't die easily....

Always watch out for that little voice. It's sneaky.
