1 week, been a rough night

its been a long week but with all my trouble i havent had a drink. my anxiety is killing me and even tonight my mother called me a drunk to my face. not what i really needed right now. I got so angry and snapped my glasses in half and left. i drove around contemplating going to the bar or going to pick up a 12 pack but instead i cooled down and came home. im glad i fought off the urge but its been tough. i feel good knowing i said no. heres to another week of many more to come

Very well done jays. Dealing with\defeating the urges early pays off in the long run. Don't hold resentment against others or yourself. Best Wishes.

P.S. some of my scariest moments in sobriety have started with; Being pissed off and bolting out the house with car keys and wallet in hand. So glad I've been able to cope with that this far. It gets much easier.

Good Work Jays. Also, even though it is tough as you know~don't let others take your power or jeopardize your sobriety. Cool you got home, stay in and think of how much better you'll feel in the new day tomorrow.

That's great you didn't go out and drink after that...My mom called me a drunk to my face one time...She was right. I put everything I had into not drinking again....And that's what I'm working on today.
