My Dad ALWAYS brings something to drink and my husband never turns him down which makes it even harder for me to say no. It's been easy so far to decline but it's a cold yucky day here and we will be celebrating and... I don't know, I guess I just feel like I'm going to be left out. Im upset and feeling sorry for myself and to be honest, pissed off that I can't just have a few like everyone else. My thoughts all day have been consumed with whether I should or not. I keep telling myself that it will be just one day, then I remember how far I've come and I don't want to ruin that. Anyways, The only thing I could think of doing to help this anxiety and foul mood was to post here. It feels great to just get it off my chest but any words of encouragement would probably help too. :-). I hope everybody is doing great and staying strong!
All I can say is I am new here and on Day 1 and I drank last night and I feel awful. Mentally and physically. I feel ashamed and am in the self loathing stage for having drank. I don't know your background with alcohol but if I can stop someone else feeling like I do today I will post. I feel crap and I wish I had of opted out of drinking last night. I wouldn't have missed out on anything except the awful way I feel today. 24 days is amazing, if I had that many days I think I would really want to hold on to them. Good luck
