Day One

Day one on the road to recovery. So far so good. Though, I have to be to work at 6:30am, I'm usually good about not drinking heavily when I have to be up so early. Not really even a craving. Even sitting with my parents for the past few hours, who are pounding them down, as usual.

No triggers either, though. Usually when I close the store I swing by the 7-11 for a few tall boys before I go to bed, while I have the house to myself. It's compulsive. I leave the store thinking "nah, not tonight", but I still end up getting the booze.

Not any more. One day at a time.

Hi sickscorpion

I'm glad you resisted the temptation. You're right - it is a compulsion. In the end, half the time I knew it wasn't going to do a thing for me. Out of habit - & fear of facing reality - I went ahead & got numb. Such a sad & pathetic waste of time. You're off to a great start!

Good job on not giving in and on your decision to quit. Breaking those old habits is hard. But you made it.
Hope you find lots of support here and welcome.
