Help wanted
It’s officially the weekend and I feel that little urge inside of me. I do not want to drink, but I know how the cycle goes. It’s all I’ve thought about the entire day. Not necessarily about getting drunk, but how am I going to stay sober. Does that make sense? Help.

[QUOTE=Dee74;6851154]Have you read any of the action plan links Siyo
they're specifically about staying sober
Thank you so much for responding. I don’t have an action plan, yet, but it sounds like something I definitely need.
