I'm way behind but am still with you. Day 11 now. Went out for dinner with two colleagues who drank in front of me last night. Surprisingly, it didn't bother me too much just sticking to diet coke and water. Thankful not to have a headache this morning and am ready to go to work and function as normal. This is one day at a time for me right now, I can't look beyond that. I won't drink today, period. Good luck and stay vigilant.

Went out for indian food tonight and ate so much it hurt!
Went to AA as well.
Going to meditate, read a bit more on here, maybe write in my journal and sleep. Sober sleep
My best friend is in town tomorrow too!

Day 13 and feeling good, feel a bit of motivation coming back and feeling positive about the future.
Jsbodhi - I love Indian food, the hotter the better.....special mixed balti vindaloo hot from my local take out every Friday night.......makes my mouth water just thinking about it.

Hey Erratic, you really stuck in there from the beginning of this class, almost a month now. Well done man. By the way, I was born in Aberdeen and raised around Ellon until I was 11 and we all moved out to Australia.

I don't even pretend like I think I don't have a problem - I give...."permission"....I guess. Anyway, just wanted to share my rambling thoughts.
Need some sleep!

Applekat, I agree my slips come so quickly I haven't had time to get my sober routine going fast enough, Im working on that. AVRA says something that makes me laugh and think...no one wakes up the next day and wishes they had a drink the night before or wish they had more to drink. That really made, still makes me laugh and helps me think about what I'm doing. Anyway, I'm rambling now, just wanted to say a quick good morning to ALL. Oh, Gypsytears, I really feel for you, I haven't experienced insomnia in a long while but it stinks, I was up & down all night, I'm surprised I'm up and going to workout now and you don't even get to get up and walk around, I hope your foot heals soon! I'll catch up with everyone else later. My wife's b-day today and Thanksgiving holiday tomorrow. Looking forward to it, staying vigilant!
Say cheese!

Morning class day 25 here, feeling strong. Started to sleep slightly better so that is helping. Trying to psych myself up to stop smoking, I stopped for over a year but started back up a few months ago and hate it. It's my last addiction and want to be free of them all. Hope everyone has a good day. Peace X
