Weave in for 24 more at 10:14pm. I'm so happy to sign in here and see everybody
Great group of milestoners too today

Had a wobble earlier and had to remind myself if I drank I'd be going to my new church hungover in the morning. I'm horrified it was even an option now I'm writing to you lot. It seemed reasonable at the time.

I guess I really don't believe I can stay sober thru new year and I might be planning a relapse? I don't know. I've told you now. It seems a bit inevitable?

Thanks for being here my lovlinesses. I'm going to say a prayer for everyone on our list before bed because that centres me.
Sweet dreams

Change your thinking, Weave. You CAN do this. FBL told to remember that your sobriety comes first. I’m living by that advice through the holidays.

Yeah, you're right. Why would I *have* to drink under any circumstances? So I drank the lot away but I'm not doing that now am I and I'm doing good stuff. I ran along the river and I'm getting fast and feeling like I'm flying today. Imagine the waste. Imagine how defeated I'd feel swallowing that alcohol. Oh it's gonna make me cry. Love you jsm and love to everyone.

I am glad that you came here to talk about it, dear Weave. It is fantastic really as I hve heard it said here that a relapse starts long before picking up; it is fantastic that you are in tune with those relapse thoughts.

A relapse is not inevitable; shore up any holes in your sober plan; make adjustments; prepare for the AV; make certain that you have exit strategies in place in case social events become triggering; think about declining invitations you already feel may be triggering. This is your first holiday since becoming sober but it won't be your last. You have many years ahead of you when you are stronger in your sobriety to enjoy sober holidays.

Stay close to us, Weave. Stay committed to your recovery.

We love you. We care. We won't steer you wrong.
