painful day

Sitting at lunch this evening day more than halfway down. It's been another rough one. All I can think about is drinking. I can taste it. I feel like day five, not day 45. I guess I should be thankful the last 3 days have been so good, but today, today hurts. I have had to use breathing exercises on multiple occasions to calm myself down. I have been late to two work meetings today because of my lack of focus and this is still within my first weeks. Not a good first impression. I need out of this fog. The PAWs is killing me.
Sorry to unload I just need to get it out there.

Pipe dreamer -

Great job using your tools to stay sober.

I found it challenging to keep my focus at work on Day 45. I found it took so much intellectual and physical strength to adjust to my new sober life. Support is vital and SR was a lifeline for me as I waded through the darkness and fog in the early days. The fog passes. You need to keep using your tools to see the amazing person that's underneath.
