Not rollin my eyes. Because I see it gets even better then that.
I find that when I look, each day is better then the last. I may have more troubles today they yesterday but I am alive and sober and I can enjoy what this day offers. Tomorrow may be a day with less troubles and I hope to take the lessons of today into tomorrow...that will make my tomorrow better then today. I will have learned more so I can do more.

I definitely feel for you Vinny. I've had these same tapes playing in my head since I woke up on Sunday, and I'll have 9 months of sobriety next week.

I wish I had something more productive to add, but know you're not alone in this.

thanks guys... Wouldnt you now my friends started calling me and asking me to have a beer with them... To much of a coincidence dont you think... offcourse there was a party I really couldnt miss...

But i didnt go and just stayed at work

I stayed at work untill 0015 and I just got in. I am totally beat BUT I didnt drink and I am now in day 14.

Just to be so everyone knows I really do think I am an Alcohilic It is just my mind telling meI am not (that really makes a lot of sense).

Reading all yr stories and seeing that lots of people have the same ideas really makes me more convinced everyday about my problem even if my mind is screaming something else.

It was my weakest moment since I had quit drinking thanks for helping me through

Vinnie
