The 5th day

I'm almost there. 2 1/2 more hours until day 6 starts. I have to admit I have been craving today. I don't know if it's because it's Friday or what. My day was crazy, kept busy. I spent about a half hour staring at my clear eyes in the mirror to remind myself why I am quitting. But I'm not quitting I'm starting a new life. Thanks SR for being here.

Friday's are really hard in early sobriety. Try to think through to waking up Saturday morning without a hangover and your whole day ahead of you to do whatever you want to do. It's such a better feeling than pounding drinks on a Friday night. Good luck. You can do this!

Good 4 u. Keep up the good work. I always get cravings on fridays /weekends,as that's when I did most of my drinking. It does pass though,and what a great feeling to wake up sober and refreshed the next day. It gets better and it gets easier. I still have my moments though. Have a wonderful weekend.

Treat yourself to a nice dinner and take in a movie at home, enjoy ice cream! That's what I do, anyway, and no matter how you feel you are still eating ice cream.

I used to count my Fridays. I think I stopped after my seventh sober Friday, which was not that long ago. You are doing great.

Nice one on the 5 days perea. Break the days into manageable blocks of time if you have too.
