Alcohol still in the house
So tonight is the their night of no drinking. This morning I felt wonderful, this afternoon I felt off, had a headach and a little sluggish I suppose it's part of withdrawal. I still have a little vodka tucked away on my bedroom closet floor. I almost caved last night and too some but I overcame the urge and just went to sleep. All day today I've been thinking about why I haven't emptied that bottle out. Part of me is scare to but I don't know of what. I guess ultimately I'm afraid to fail at sobriety but then why keep this damn vodka????? WTF is wrong with me!!!!!!

I found that fear of failure was the perfect excuse for me to avoid putting the effort that I needed into sobriety. Dump the vodka and consider it your first win in your war against alcohol. You will never really fail if you don't try.

I did it!!! I poured it all out!! I turned my head away so I wouldn't smell it and have second thoughts. I feel weak and frail and I hope I can do this. I prayed for God to help me with this and I feel like he is because here I am another night sober

You are brave and we are proud of you. It all starts with a leap of faith, a willingness to surrender ourselves and trust that sobriety is the path to the light, the path out of our "glass prison". Well done! Rooting for you!
