Addicts hit meetings when they crave hard. The meetings replace the drinking.

This place replaces the drinking for me.

Ive been on vacation for a week or so, have 3 weeks left.

I was cooking this morning and my wife had an old bottle of wine sitting on the counter.

Back in the day, I could chug the whole thing. I would gag a bit, but then it would be down. Then I might get some more. Then I would pass out. Wake up.... have a horrid hang over, feel weak, and be loaded with guilt and anxiety.

I would sit around thinking of reasons to drink again. Mostly because I was on vacation...no not really..i was heavily physically and mentally addicted

I grabbed the bottle and motioned like I was going to pound it, then set it down and laughed. I don't drink anymore.

Yes!

I am drinking a cup of coffee here....at 6 pm.

Probably not the best move, but 1000x better than drinking a neurotoxin that nearly cost me everything.

I accomplished so much today. It was amazing. The old me would probably be wasted and accomplished nothing.

Stay clean team.

Thanks for the post.
