I also missed your original post DarkDays. Congratulations on your 30 days. If you are anything like me, you may hear that little voice inside your head telling you it's ok to drink again, that you have learned your lesson, etc, etc. Do not listen to it. That little voice is just a thought and it will fade in a few moments like all thoughts do. It is just a conditioned response to whatever may be happening around you, good or bad. It's a totally powerless voice unless you inject action into it. My experience is that alcohol cravings are as powerless as I am over that second drink. I sense taking the first drink is always a choice we make. Once the poison is introduced to our bodies, then that weird phenomenon unique to us alcoholics takes over our reason and all bets are off.

Hopefully you aren't having any cravings but if you do DO NOT GIVE IN. Staying sober is a lot easier than getting sober. Don't make the mistake I made.

Wishing you and your family all the best.
