Welcome to SR and congratulations on your first week and then some. The beginning was hard because you had to intentionally change your habits. I will never forget the first week. I drank wine for years starting at 4 pm until bedtime. I had to change that whole evening routine. It worked, but it wasn't easy. SR was really the glue for me and it kept me glued to sobriety. Glad you joined us. You'll do it!

Hello~
Im also on day 9. Am having some trouble tonight. I have had to talk myself out of taking a pull off of my husbands bottle about 50 times, NO KIDDING!
More than once tonight I have said "Who would know if I just took a couple of drinks off of that bottle, Then I nearly have to yell in my head "YOU!" YOU WILL KNOW!
Thankfully its getting late enough now, I can maybe go sit on the couch & watch TV & not think about it any more, I HOPE!!!

I am only on day 3. But I see more hope this time. Going to that AA meeting was the best thing I ever did. Right now is when I get the urge but I know that there's a meeting I can go to if I need to. I passed the beer at the store today. What really bugs me is that beer commercials are still on tv. You don't see cigarette commercials anymore. Tomorrow is going to be hard for alot of us.
