I found it hard on Sunday when I was watching TV and saw someone pouring a glass of hard liquor. I actually felt the craving, but luckily I got rid of all the alcohol in my house, so it was impossible for me to partake. I managed to talk myself down, and focus on something else instead of the cravings.
You should pat yourself on the back for staying sober the past two days - congratulations! Stay strong, and check in often!
Oh yes I absolutely ID with the tv showing people ''enjoying'' alcohol. It seems to be the acceptable thing to do!?? :wtf2
The main soap operas here in the UK are based around a pub!!
Showing images of folks laughing and having fun whilst pouring poison into a glass..............I also feel resentful of this...........
But I am learning to watch and say to myself I am taking responsibilty for my own health here........one day at a time..............no fanfare or trumpets..just a healthier me................I hope...in time........
