For the first time in a very long time, I had 2 days sober under my belt this morning when I woke up. I was so proud of myself and felt exceptionally good - finally, no hangover! But, @#%^, right after work I did what I have done for so many days, stopped by one store and bought a large beer and drank it on the way home. Just before I got home, I stopped at a different store and bought a bottle of wine. Well, yes, I drank it all.
I don't have answers for you. I do have empathy, though. It's vicious.
