Sigh....you sound like me, felt like that yesterday but got through it. I had started developing the " have a drink to unwind after work" that then would continue on through dinner prep and through dinner cleanup. This would happen several times a week recently and so I recognized, as a health care professional, that I was on a slippery slope that was quickly going to go from a destructive habit to a full blown lose everything mess. Not going to happen!
Hang in there everyone, we can do this!
