Ok so after battling my inner voice yesterday that I deserved a drink, I decided to go to bed early and sober. I FEEL SO REFRESHED THIS MORNING WOW! So day 4 is an all new record for me, I feel great but keep battling the inner voice later in the day that I need a drink just 1 relax you deserve it, thats my challenge so far.

Congratulations on Day 4. Don't you love that morning feeling. If you know you struggle in the afternoons, make yourself a plan about what you will do when your inner voice starts talking...Take a walk, read a book, call a friend, journal....Enjoy your 4th Day

Well done on day 4. New hobbies will battle your inner voice , more than you can imagine. And the no hangovers are amazing. Keep it up!

great news

Maybe look at AVRT -it helps you recognize and deal with the voice

Isn't it brilliant thewill? In the five months that I've been sober I have had almost a full week's extra sleep (I calculated this) than I used to have yet I'm getting up earlier than I ever did.

On day 4 as well! Great going! Will sleep early and fast and start again tomorrow!

Congrats on 4 days, TW! Great job! I resonate with the desire creeping up as the afternoon creeps up - it's as if I wanted a reward for getting through the day. Coming here, getting support, getting busy with things that make me feel as good as what I was trying for with my DOC (connection with others seems to especially accomplish this) - starts to move that desire further away.

Congrats again!

P.S. Love your dancing bananas LadyBlue
