Thank you all so much. Day two and already feeling better. I work long hours on the weekend, so I'm in the clear through Sunday. I know Monday will be the first day it's really hard and I'm steeling myself against the temptation already. It really helped the first time to "play the tape" of how I would feel after drinking and to promise myself to stay sober through the day when I was really struggling. Usually the next day I was so proud of myself for not caving the craving would dissipate for a few days. I feel really optimistic about getting sober, and my self esteem is already on the upswing since making the decision to get back on the forum and the "wagon." I also downloaded a meditation app, so if it gets really bad maybe I'll spend a few minutes meditating to sort of calm myself down. A little emotional cold shower, you know?
