Thanks kzaug I remember hearing that being said by one of the few friends I had when going to AA. It stuck with me then too, even after stopping going to AA.

Always appeared as one of life's little truths, drinking or otherwise. I might follow your suggestion and use it as a signature if I can work out how to do it. Might help someone struggling.

Feeling a bit stir crazy today and know what I need to do but again it's the motivation.

Got to remind myself that motivation does not just arise out of the genie bottle I have to do something to keep it alive and not feel guilty about tea breaks. Why do I think that drinking would ever make it better? It's insane, because I know it won't it'll make it worse. Short term escape is bound to fail.
