Thoughts like go and get the cans after your music rehearsal later, you can’t do this Stew, just one more night etc etc etc

Just ignoring it at the minute, feel like I’m being moody- in reality, probs not
This is completely normal Stewy - the thoughts always come sooner or later. Make some alternative plans for tonight - just "ignoring" the thoughts wont' work as they won't just go away. How about a movie, a walk or a good book? Or maybe even an AA or recovery meeting? There are plenty of them online so you don't even have to leave your home. You could also set a time to log back on here right after practice - put it in your phone and give yourself a reminder.
