By the way for those if you in the early stages. I have caved and I don't feel happy or relaxed or anything. Even though I have alcohol in me I am already thinking about tomorrow morning. It really is the worst and I was weak. Please let me join in again tomorrow. This won't go on longer than tonight. Sorry again friends (which I hope we are) xxx

Why don't you use this to learn even more? Write down what you are feeling right now and re-read it whenever you feel like drinking again. What more powerful message than one from the drunk you can you get?

Hey Guys,
Day 3 here. I'm back too after I was a week shy of making it 13 months back in February. From then it was just a big mess, until May 6. I know what went wrong, I am going to learn from it. I'm going to put one foot in front of the other and continue on. Today is just as special as my day 365. I need to remember that.
As far as non alcoholic drinks.... For me I can't do the wine or beer because that's what I drank. But I do love enjoy tomato juice, or clamato juice etc. But I never drank those with alcohol anyways.
Have a great day everyone!
Jojo
