Screw up!
 

Oh joy, nearly 48 hrs clean, and I'm not anymore. The craving took over and I made the "beer run" Oddly enough, that little drink, gave me the courage to tell my oldest daughter my problem. Can't tell anyone I have a problem, unless I'm drinking. Go figure.

Tomorrow is a new day. And that's a day I'll start out sober, and go to my AA meeting. And I pray God will help me to be stronger tomorrow than I am today.

:help :e136:

Do whatever you have to tomorrow and just remember you can stay sober just for a minute, an hour, one day. Don't try to do more than that. :ghug3

P.S. Why wait until tomorrow? Why not now?

Twin, It is great that you recognize your problem. That is the step to recovery. All we ask in recovery is to have a day of reprieve from drinking. The next day will follow. When I first started recovery I had to take it "just don't let me drink now". I took it five minutes at a time. It took awhile to get my 24hrs but I eventually did. The only failure you have in recovery is when you fail to try. Keep trying! I hope you all the best. LOL

I agree, no need to wait till tomorrow.

Just don't drink one day at a time. You have to want to be sober more than you want to be drunk. Good luck!

Keep trying Twin, good luck mate!

Twin,
I am so proud of you for telling your daughter. Now the secret is out and you can be real with her. She will be so proud of you. Today is another day. Like Deez said, just 5 minutes at a time. Since we are in this together I have to say you came to mind alot yesterday when I was having cravings. I am very glad to have already met a kindred spirit on this site. You can do it today!
