Day 20 Having a Bad Day
Day 20 Having a Bad Day
Had a dream last night I was on a Lads Holiday and I couldn't not have a drink
Today I've watched "The Inbetweeners Movie" and all I wanna do is get hammered!!!
I honestly can't see myself not ever having a drink again!!!

I found it best not to torture myself in early recovery....stay away from laddish movies for a bit...or at least impress upon yourself it's fiction - that wasn't real drinking.
I lived 'a lad's life'....it was fine when I was 18, but it gets considerable less attractive a look the closer you get to 40.
I dunno how old you are Geste, but I had to grow up....and I'm glad I did.

TV makes drinking look so cool. Glamorous stick thin models sipping vodka. I just think about the morning after, mascara smeared around my eyes (raccoon), swollen face , red nose. Oh and the stomach fun. I have to laugh.
It's not so much a challenge. Most of the time I look at people who are drunk, fighting with police, and being sick in the street and I wonder why I used to enjoy it. I find it humbling more than anything. I know that I'm only one drink or line away from being like that again.

Agree with Escape.....think hard about the hangover, the blackout, the guilt.....write down how you felt after each drunk. Then read it every night to remind yourself of that dark place you don't want to go to.....one day at a time.
