Third time lucky?
Third time lucky?
Well I've committed to getting sober again tomorrow... This is my 3rd attempt, and I only ever seem to get to my 5th day..( when the weekend arrives!!)I'm going to make plans so I don't fall off the wagon again and will keep myself as busy as possible.. It's terrifying as I struggled so much in the past when it stopped drinking.. Couldn't sleep, had huge anxiety etc.. Hopefully I stick it out long enough for these symptoms to pass this time round ...I'm giving up a 1-2 bottle of wine a night habit so fingers crossed once again x
Hello Nic welcome bk
Its really worth sticking out i was once like you i couldnt get past day 5 then got to 18 days it took 3 months to finally get sober
this is my first time sober over a month and im very close to 18 months sober
you can do this but its gonna take more than willpower my friend

Glad you're here and posting!
To Finally achieve some measure of sobriety - 210 days today - I had to accept that I simply could no longer drink. It was a huge relief that came along with willingness!
Very little luck involved in the process
Keep coming back!

Nic, just concentrate on one day at a time... one hour at a time. Have a plan for when the craivings kick in. I came here to sr as much as I could in the early days. Post often and read as many threads as you can. Divert your attention to something other than drinking and the cravings will pass. Its tough as hell, but achievable and so worth the effort.
you can do this.
you can do this.
For me I don't buy into an addicted voice in my head. There is only one - It's my conscience. Sometimes however, it does go on vacation in regards to do things I should not
I view it as more of an out to lunch sign.......cat's away, mice will play issue I suppose. It is conscience choices we make daily in all aspects of our lives and for me not dictated by an AV.
Now as for God acting on us through the Holy Spirit, that is another thread.....
Keep coming back
VERY glad you're here!!!!
Stay sober Make the Choice, today ...

it's a full moon tonight. My twin brother somehow drowned in a river while fishing on the full moon. It's tuff alright, day 4 starts tomorrow. I'm sober, in bed and the car was cleaned this evening not a full bottle of vodka. day by hour by minute. this site helps me get my mind off it
