I'm glad you have a week RJY - congrats

I remember about a week or two out from my 'last ever drink' (which was actually several years away from my real last ever drink, but anyway...)

I'd been doing well - I was sober and I'd even gotten through a few occasions with friends just me drinking NA beer.

This night, I decided to go around to a mate's place - not for a drink but just for a game of darts and a BBQ.

A few others came over too. I sat there watching the other guys drinking - I had a few NA beers with me) and after a while I got really angry that they were having more fun than I was.

I was bored, I was angry, and I felt like I was a third wheel.

so I dumped the NA beer and decided to have a couple of real beers...just for the night.

That was the end of that sobriety attempt.

Don't overestimate yourself RJY - or underestimate your addiction.
