A month and 2 days

Had a couple good days, full clarity, felt happy and ready to take the day on. But yesterday was a tough one. No particular reason. I just felt bad. I wanted to go to the store, grab a pint of Smirnoff and just down it. But I didn’t. I am thankful for that this morning. I know I have choices. I just need to keep **** g the right ones.

thanks to the folks that respond with support and guidance.

Those tough days will always come and go but the most amazing thing is that you did not drink over it. Good for you!
Cravings will have less of a charge as we move through each one. You are creating a different way of dealing with life and that takes some time. Keep on moving forward.

Good job getting through it JJ. There is no situation that drinking won't make worse.

Every time you come through a difficult patch it gets easier to cope with next time in my experience.
