Talking 10 days

Last two days have been testing me. I have had some dramatic news hit me yesterday that made me cry and after the experience, needed a drink. I decided to just lay down,close my eyes and fall asleep instead.

Today was a little similar, around the same time... 8PM. I was thinking about it and I was wondering, why am I thinking about it so much?

To combat both times, I ate my favorite dark chocolate and drank some ice cold apple juice. The pleasure experienced from both I think causes my brain to "calm down" so to speak.

The forum helps a lot too. When I come on here and read about people being happy that they are sober this many days and glad the nightmare or vicious cycle is over, it reminds me why I'm not drinking alcohol.

Anyways lost track of my days sober, but counted from the calendar and looks to be 10 days now. Let's see if I can get to 20 in 10 days
