For me stress at work was a huge hurdle I had to overcome.
In Sobriety we now need to figure out a way to deal with life's ups and down's, because they still will happen, and without the quick fix of alcohol, we need new tools in the toolbox.
Almost every 2nd day at work is a stressful one for me, I find going for a long walk in the evenings, plenty of fresh air to clear my mind helps, I've adjusted my diet to a healthier one, more exercise, more sleep, plenty of relaxation.
Even in Sobriety some jobs can still be tough, but reaching for our old friend alcohol is not the answer, we need to work out a new way of dealing with life!!
Hang in there!!
