I got through that but unfortunately didn't spend the next few weeks working on some resentments (that has been the most difficult point in recovery for me, personally) and that slipped me up again.


hi Sandy, yeah well thanks for that, i think thats what im gonna focus on, waking up unhangovered, and notice things that about others that i never have before LOL,,, it might humor me... and were your resentments due to other people being able to drink and you not?

Just remember what you're doing this for Kez :)
Read some old posts if you have to

Let them drink - just remember that you can't if you want to stay like you are :)

Hang in there Kez, nobody needs alcohol to have a good time. Think of the hangovers the others will be getting that you won't :)

Kaz,

I am at day 6 and i am having a huge party tonight, scheduled before I decided to sober up. Can't be cancelled. Booze galore, how about this, everytime I think about drinking I will think of you and hold you in my thoughts and everytime you think of drinking think of me. May-be we can hold ourselves up.

LETS MAKE IT TO DAY 7 Together.....

Lets see who can post thier victory first.

When everyone is gone, I am planning on pouring the **** down the drain.

LETS GET TO DAY 7 Together.....NO MORE DAY 1
