Day 4

Sorry to be redundant and post everyday, but I’m really trying to do it right this time. I won’t be able to make it to AA today so I feel like posting on here throughout the day will help. Feel good this morning. Slept decently last night but still keep waking up hearing things not able to go back to sleep for awhile. Yesterday I had my first like slap me in the face craving. I’ve been so sick I haven’t been eating. But yesterday I could finally cook, so I put a pot on the stove and poured some olive oil in it, and BAM it was this insane soul crushing I need a drink. I realized I drink the whole time I cook, it’s when I usually start drinking for the day. I had to walk away and just breath. That was rough but it passed and I didn’t drink. Good luck to all out there!

Sounds like you are doing well through those trigger times. Post away if it helps!

I love Spokane. You know what I REALLY love? Soft peanut brittle from the Davenport hotel in Spokane.

You are doing so well and that's awesome the way that you managed your craving. Remember to eat though, even take out until you feel more steady to cook. Food really helps cravings xx

Never apologize for coming back, I have on and off been going at this for the last two years. I have had 2 6 month sobriety stints and more one to two months.

We will get this, I believe in us.
