Thank you so much for the feedback. Yes I have been speaking to my sponsor and at meetings. Day 37 and very grateful not to drink today. Already experiencing many benefits of not drinking...feel better physically, more able to get out of a bad mood or pity party quicker, using my time more constructively, feeling more gratitude and most importantly praying and experiencing God's love. I am sure there will be many more moments of denial... especially when I get the urge to drink... So glad for this forum... Alcohol may be everywhere but so is recovery if i look. thanks again for your thoughts
