I think I'll join this class also, the more support the better I guess..
Day 2 and I have a big list of things to do that have been neglected over the last wee while..
Like I said in Jan class, I'm feeling so much better today than yesterday and have passed the witching hour quite easily. I am however very aware not to be fooled by that as I know there is a very strong resolve today to not drink and that might dwindle as the days go on..
Eyes and ears open for that sneaky voice..

Thumbs up

Hi All and Dee, I'm in - I'm actually on Day 32 today and I deliberately waited until now to make sure I wasn't going to early relapse again. As you can see from my start date - I've been around for a while - I was abstinent for years from 2011-2015 but went back when I divorced. This time has got to be the last time - I absolutely cannot face another 'Day 1' - I've become so sick of myself. Anyway, good luck to us all!

I'm in, day 1. I need to focus on learning not to drink in social situations. Would very much like to complete an entire month (to start with), I've come close, but then ultimately drink. That said. I've gotten more sober time in the last few months than the last 20 years, so that's something.

I'm in for Feb. Determined not to change the date I have below.

Plan for Feb: Check in daily. I also commit to come here first if I think drinking is a good idea on any day this month.

I'm in too. I need the cycle to stop. I need to focus on my health and happiness and I cannot do that feeling like crap most days. Once 4pm rolls around, I internally fight with myself about taking a drink, and the AV always seems to win.

Day 5

Good morning everyone. Another morning waking up with no hang over. Sleep is getting a little better. I think I’ll start wearing my Apple Watch to bed so I can start seeing how much sleep I’m actually getting and be able to see any improvements. I have purposely not worn my watch to bed so I wouldn’t obsess with how little quality sleep I was getting.

Very happy to be here with everyone else. Today is my grandson’s first birthday. If that’s not a great reason to want to stop drinking I don’t know what is.

Welcome General, Five, Red & Al, Lixie, BacktoGood, SilverSky, Gymrat & JoJo,

It's good to see you all here, and it's nice to see January gone by and February beginning.

Thanks, Anna. I'm doing one thing differently this time, on Wednesday I'm seeing my DR and I intend to tell him everything. Scary, because this is the first time I'll be seeing him, but that shouldn't change anything. If he takes away my driver's licence, that's OK too. I need to get help to lead a sober life. That's it.
