Lawyers, Guns and Money...reaching for the handles!!

Does anyone have days where you would swear the cosmic forces have conspired to cause you to drink. Simultaneously dealing with lawsuit threats, huge debts coming due and a pistol packing tough guy dating my X while she pillages what is left of our life....all of this after discovering a half empty bottle of scotch in the back of a cabinet....oh man I am hanging by my fingernails. I've made it more than 100 days....is this where it ends?

Tesla,
It doesn't have to end here. I'd find it hard to hang on with liquor in the house......could you pour it down the sink? Drinking won't solve any of your problems...might just make them worse!

No, this is not where it ends. When times are hard, that is when you most need all your faculties about you. Take a deep breath, dump the scotch, and carry on fearlessly.

100 day is awesome! NO need to drink today. Maybe tomorrow, but just make it through today---sober.

Those things will still be there tomorrow....drinking or not. Stay stopped and you'll be able to deal with them much better!
