WWG,
I do not get headaches. But PLEASE do whatever you can to maintain your sobriety this weekend. Stay strong. You can make it through the weekend, football games and all, without drinking.
When the going gets tough, do one or more of the following:
- Pray
- Get on SR to surf, lurk, and post your thoughts
- Go to a SR chat room
- Google other chatrooms
- Go to an AA meeting! You have nothing to lose there.
- Go for a run. Are you still committed to that 5K run over Thanksgiving?
- Give your daughter and wife a big hug. Go for a walk with them.
- PM me if you need someone to talk to. Seriously.
Even after my 45 days, I have urges to drink too. I assume it will take a long time for them to completely go away. But YOU ARE DOING SO WELL!!!! Stay STRONG... Your future depends on it! You do not want to live the next 15 years in this alcoholic quagmire like I did. Knocking on 50 years old, wondering why??? This COLTS fan has never reached out to a PATS fan, but this game of life is SO MUCH MORE than that!! The future is so much brighter if we can stay SOBER. Hang in there. God bless you.
