Hi everyone
Thanks for all the encouragement! I think airports and flying are one of my most difficult triggers. I really appreciate you all being here to help me through it. I came very close to having a drink on the plane and I’m beyond relieved and grateful that I didn’t. Waking up today was such a relief, knowing I didn’t succumb. Intellectually I know it would never be just one drink. However in the grip of the moment the AV can be so convincing, despite the fact that I know it’s a liar. So I’m grateful to you all for helping me through it and for your support.
Some time away is going to be so much better than it could possibly have been if I’d been drinking the whole time. Because that’s what it would have become, that cycle of drinking, hangover, drinking, hangover... Instead I can do some sightseeing and spend time with family and friends and really enjoy myself sober
