struggling a bit

Some triggers have come up the past couple day which along w lack of decent sleep & yucky emotions are really making me want a bottle of wine. I am aware that a normie would only want a glass & right now I'm pissed I cant be like that. Heading home from work, going to pick up a Hershey bar & suck it up until this craving passes. Posting here at least helps lessen the loneliness pangs. Thanks for listening

Yum, Hershey bars.

Good for you for recognizing the triggers and working to deal with them.

Hi Quitforme,

Yep, I know how you feel. What a roller coaster ride we are on, huh? Sounds like you have a handle on it (yea chocolate!). Some days are harder than others.

Thanks Anna and yeh Scrambed..I actually laughed when I read your post because a woman at work today was talking about how she was going out after work to get "hammered"...hmmmm & yes sissy, it is like a rollercoaster. I have been feeling pretty good besides a little anxiety and not sleeping well. I tend to get frustrated w myself when I feel down but I think everyone goes thru ups and downs so I need to be a little easier on myself. Thanks for your responses guys

Congratulations Quit! Facing a trigger and instead of drinking coming up with a rewarding alternative - chocolate Just one day at a time! Congratulate yourself - you just flexed an emotional muscle.
