Three year anniversary

Well done!!!!
I used to ask if cravings were still a problem, but now I am 16 months sober, my cravings have gone so hopefully yours too.
Yes, to be drinking as an alcohol dependent right now is a nightmare scenario. I was able to limit my drinking by buying enough for that evening. Once I had finished my daily quota, I rarely went out to buy more even though I usually wanted more! With Covid-19, I can plan my shopping to limit the number of shop visits to maybe two a week. How on earth would that work if I was still drinking? I would have bought two or three days worth with the best of intentions and probably finish the lot that night!
Anyone actively addicted to alcohol in this lockdown really has my sympathy. Try and quit now, folks!

Hi, Labatty--three years sober is awesome! Congratulations, and I hope you stop by more often to share with others how you managed it. Wishing you all the best in continued sobriety--I can't imagine how awful it would be to be suffering in addiction during this stay at home business either.
