I have now been sober for six complete days! Sleep still a problem, hopefully I will get into a better routine when I get back to work next week.
Before I decided to sober up I had arranged to go out with an old friend this evening. I sent him a message yesterday saying that I wasn't drinking and that I would drive so we were not constrained with what we could do. We ended up in a nearby pub to play pool, I was not concerned about me wanting to drink, I had the car. It was a great evening! I might have drank a bit too much Coca-Cola but no booze for me!
It's great that my friend didn't even ask me why I wasn't drinking but I think he is clever enough to work it out. It always used to be me who wouldn't partake in ANY activity unless it involved alcohol.
Now if only I can sleep....
Goodnight all and thank you all for your support so far.
