Really struggling today. One of my best friends is taking me out for dinner and I have never hung out with her without our kids and My AV is SCREAMING at me today to have a drink. She knows what I am going through although she doesn't understand alcoholism. I am going to keep myself accountable and tell her I am struggling to ensure we go somewhere that does not serve booze. I know I am also hungry so maybe if I have a protein shake before we meet that will help.
Any words of support would be much appreciated. It's my birthday week. I knew this would happen. I've been feeling so strong up until this point too.
