A co-worker came in to work with a bottle of Bailey's to bring a Christmas cheer. The went around offering it to everyone. The bottle is now sitting on the table in the kitchen and I have no desire to drink. I'm not wondering how much is left in it. I am not wondering how many times I can go there and fill up with no one noticing. I am not wondering how much more I can drink without being visibly drunk. I just don't care about it at all and I am so very very grateful.
I am not angry with the co-worker. This is not the first job where someone has brought this kind of Christmas cheer.
How grateful I am that I don't have cravings today.

Have a sober holidays

Good work and stay strong! I work in a company that has had company provided alcohol during work hours 3 times this month and we had a department holiday party with byob. It can be hard. I just had to deal with it yesterday and I too abstained and am much happier because of it.

My boss bought me a bottle of wine today and dont feel the least bit like smash the neck of it on the desk and guzzling it down while they are getting a coffee.

I will have no problems giving it to my earthling neighbour.

SO GRATEFUL

Just be careful. Cravings can come up out of the blue.

Someone brought a large bottle of wine to our company party last week. At first I got pissed off that they would do that when they are fully aware of my problem.

I quickly moved on to berating myself for such selfishness. What makes me think no one else should be able to have one or two glasses of wine in front of me?

They can stop at that and I can't, plain and simple. I'm a drunk and my sobriety is on me, not others.
