Wondering how long until I want to drink
Today is day 2, no drinking. I'm notorious for starting something off with a bang and then within days, flaking out or just losing interest. Believe me, I have a LOT of unfinished projects.
I'm going to need some real help in the "keepin' busy" department. If I'm idle, I'll want to drink (and then probably go grab a glass).
I live in a dirty city, on a main road that's always busy with traffic. Not exactly inspiring. I'm sure those seaside rehab centers are quite fancy, but we work with what we've got. See, not a lot of people really know about my drinking problem, because I don't go out and drink. Too embarassing and expensive. I stay home and drink with my husband (or alone), so I'm not big on making my recovery very public. Although, I do want to go to an AA meeting very soon.
Anyway, I'm already feeling bored with this and lost. I have to admit, this website has been very encouraging and inspiring so far. What are the fundamentals in building this life back up to a sober, happy life?
