Day 40
Had a bit of an epiphany. Someone asked me if I was missing drinking. All other times I've tried giving up I have missed it constantly but this time all I can think about it that last hangover I had where my stomach felt like it was turning inside out. Somewhere in my head it has clicked if I have 1 it will turn in to many and I will experience that pain again. If I imagine a nice cold glass of wine I associated it with that pain. I know this can ware off and my AV is definitely chipping in more. But with help from this site I have learned to get through each period of my AV nagging. I know I've got to 80 days before and slipped up but I am really concentrating on not saying yes to even one glass. I guess what I'm trying to say is when asked if I missed drinking my first thought wasn't instantly yes

The AV helps us tuck those ugly memories away and tries to keep visions of the fun times (which ended in the ugly memories) in the forefront. Good for you for keeping focus on the down side. Playing it through to the end is a great tactic. Congrats on 40 days!
