Today was brutal

You know those days when everything that could possibly go wrong goes wrong...that was today.
I am still sober...day 5 for me...but I feel exhausted...

But you made it. Sober.

If you are exhausted, can you retire for the evening and check this day off as a Survivor Story ?

Not quite everything went wrong today. In fact, it sounds like the most important thing went very right for you. Resisting the urge to drink is even more impressive on difficult days. You did that today. Well done.

I usually have one of those a week. Keep your chin up, booze won't make it any better.

It may have been a difficult day but it had a wonderful ending - sobriety! I think it's a huge step that you resisted during a difficult day. You should be proud and remember how you didn't give in to the urge today the next time the beast comes calling!
