hey miss ducky,

I'm not a super wonderful source for advice since I'm only on day two of recovery, but just wanted to say welcome. I've been using this site for over a month now (lurking and before my last relapase) Its a wonderful online community full of supportive people who have been through, or are going through many of the same things you are.

Anyone have any ideas on POSITIVE reinforcement??
Find something else to do that you enjoy during the times you would normally be drinking. I've been walking.... and going to bed early. I loooove to sleeeep. I'm also keeping plenty of sparkling water and diet soda in stock. I also love carbonation and (being a former beer girl) like to have something fizzy.

Keep at it no matter how hard it gets. Life is beautiful and sunny the way it is, why do we foggy it up with alcohol?

best of luck and "see" you around....
