Don't try to not think about alcohol. Should the thoughts pop into your head, simply acknowledge them and say -'I'm free of all that - I don't have to drink any more. I can go out and enjoy myself without having to worry about trying to control my drinking, or wondering whether I'm going to make a fool of myself. I can take my car, and not have to rely upon friends or expensive taxi-cabs. I can wake up in the morning feel fresh and relaxed, remembering everything about the great time I had last night'.
Enjoy the rest of your life....
