Hello My Name is Getbettteragain...
And I am an alcoholic. Good morning all and I hope your day is going well. Today my thoughts center around yesterday largely. I know one foot in the past, one in the future and you are peeing on today.... But really, today is day 3 of being dry. Yesterday was a good day. I didn't worry nearly as much about my health, knowing that if it is to recover, it will. I know That God willing I will be sober as it does. I didn't think about drinking too many times yesterday as I kept my mind on study and good things yesterday. Today hopefully I can do the same, just one day at a time. I wish everyone here a fantastic day!
Not drinking isnt a pass to immortality or anything, but it sure is a lot healthier than drinking. Have a fantastic sober day today!!

Reading through the forum, and I am sorry I do not know how to quote yet, this part of a post had me rolling because it is so true. This will help me today:
Reminds me of the Robert Downey Jr. quote he made one summer. . ."Sometimes I think about having a drink, then I remember I have plans for Christmas."

Saw that statesment coming from one foot. Good slogan tho.
Congrats on day 3.
Take it one day at a time. Things will work out.
You can deal with the thoughts of drinking, however you cant deal with the body once you take a drink. You are getting the grasp of step one, good stuff. It is a very important step to understand completely.
I will most likely have a fantastic day, but it is not guarunteed. Life happens.
