Visual cues finally lessening after four months

One of my biggest nagging impulses has always been the visual cues. Mostly the store shop signs or bar entry signs but even tv or movies with drinking get me to a degree.

Just a few days ago though I was driving by one of my old stops and I amazed myself when I found that I had looked at the food signs as I passed by. Normally I always start to gaze at the neon signs and then have to divert my attention. It was a big step for me in my mind, I am finally starting to stop mentally obsessing too much. Sure, I still have some visions and thoughts but no where near how they were a few months ago.

Just got to keep on keeping on. Hope you all are doing the same. Have a great sober evening.

The neon signs still give me that deer inthe headlights look from time to time.
I can usually shake the thoughts as soon as they come though.
Congratulations on four months!
