Hi VeggieFriend. The "Witching Hour".... gosh I know that so well! It's good you have recognized your pattern of drinking. I replaced it with Club Soda with lime slices, I posted here BEFORE my usual first drink (or the drive to the liquor store) and I would have an activity started (painting a piece of furniture or a craft or sewing) Hang in there and I would tell myself the same thing.... I'm not drinking today.... maybe tomorrow but not today. I am 3 years sober.
