Michelle's accountability thread
Hi everyone. I've read a few threads of this type and really found them useful and helpful. I thought I'd do my own thread. A place to journal my sobriety while having a tangible place to be accountable.
I've realized the desire to drink just pops up out of nowhere. It'll be a normal day and the thought enters my mind. It's not always a forceful thought, but a quiet, constant thought. Most times, I push it away. At other times, I give in until it's a roar.
My biggest issue right now is not 100% accepting I have a problem. I justify by saying I don't drink often, etc. But as I've said before and heard from others, its not quantity, it's quality.
Alcohol offers me nothing!! Nothing. Even one day sober gives me more than all of my drinking time combined.
I have concrete fitness goals. I have concrete life goals. I need to work on accepting 100% that I cannot drink again. Ever!
SR is a huge source of support. The words posted here are truly life changing.
Thank you for reading.
