Hi Scarlet. I just read your first few posts and it looks like your mind was obsessing quite a bit over the fact that you were giving it up. Is that a difficult thought to give up drinking? See I could give up drinking while I was pregnant and I know a lot of women that could, BUT I also knew I could do it because it wasn't forever. Its kind of like turning down a drink while I was out, but knowing I could have it once I got home. I can give anything up easily knowing its not forever.
This is the point of the 24 hour pledge. I can give it up for 24 hours. I'll think about the next 24 hours tomorrow.
You ask if you can drink socially? What happened when you used to drink? For me, I wouldn't stop at 1 or 2 and it would just go on and on. I also changed as far as my personality. If I did stop at 1 or 2 it was a struggle and I mean a real struggle. You have to answer this honestly yourself.
Congratulations on the 30 days! That's big!!
