That was an amazingly strong thing to do WhoDeyPI. I'm so glad you managed not to give in. Early sobriety isn't about the easy days when you're happy and motivated and in flow, it's about not drinking/using no matter what. No mood, situation or event is a reason to drink/use. Ever.
You fought the law, and you won.
Please consider a suicide hot line if you start going down this road again, and/or seeing a psychiatrist for possible depression or bipolar issues if you're not already. Psychotherapy helps me tremendously as well, particularly since I found one that works for me. Although I don't do 12 Step, I have built my own community of sober friends as an alternative to my mostly normie social interactions. It helps me realize that I'm not alone in this, in a very visceral way.
Keep us posted please, and look forward to Days 228, 229, 230....
