Getting a grip
My mind is a bit clearer today, glad I’ve got rid of all the cans from my room, it feels like a better environment now
I’m in work at the minute, not too many cravings so far today, as I did yesterday, going to take plenty of water on board and make sure I’m eating well
Hope everyone has a good day, will post later

Good for you Stew. When I was drinking, I started to crave around noon. To me, it seemed an acceptable time to have my first drink. Now, 4 weeks later, the noon hour passes and I find I hadn't noticed. If I'm having any craves, I'm finding they are starting later and later and continue until I've eaten dinner. Once I've eaten something, they diminish.

First cravings hitting now
Feel tired and anxious, time to eat and drink some water
Thoughts like go and get the cans after your music rehearsal later, you can’t do this Stew, just one more night etc etc etc
Just ignoring it at the minute, feel like I’m being moody- in reality, probs not

It will feel fantastic to awaken tomorrow morning hangover-free.

Yes thanks guys, all suggestions duly noted and much appreciated.I’m just taking my daughter to dance class now, straight after that is the rehearsal.
I can stretch the rehearsal to around 11pm tonight, then I’m going to post here on my way home
I’m worried about how I’m going to cope day to day with just my sober self. I think that is what is part of why I’ve repeatedly failed recently

Stew, try and stay in "today". Worrying about tomorrow adds extra stress you just don't need right now. Get through today, fill your usual drinking time with something that keeps your mind busy.
One day at a time.

I feel that IRL support would really help the 'day to day' that worries you, Stewy.
Stewy I have been hoping you would come back and give this a really good go again. Just focus today on getting your head on that pillow tonight. If you feel a vicious craving go straight home and have a nice long hot shower, maybe another snack and a soothing herbal tea or just a glass of water.
Then you can get to bed and be safe. Yes cry if you need to. Nothing matters apart from staying sober today. Nothing.
