gonna b hard
Its gonna be hard because I carpool to and from work with guys who like to drink on the way home (hour and a half commute). I have no other option right now but ride with them. Maybe Odouls or coffee will help.

wow crush, that is going to be real hard. I don't know what to tell you. I tried O'douls but I realized I ended up drinking real better after a few O'douls.
Good luck and try try try to be strong.

If they're drinking on the way home, either in the car or stopping for drinks on the way, that makes them dangerous drivers and I sure wouldn't want to be riding with them any more...

I used to do that a lot - now I understand how silly and dangerous it really is.
To your point Crush - I had to change who I was. That, especially in the beginning, meant changing my people, places, and things.
By no means am I saying it's going to be easy or that this means you have to find another way to work, but just understand that you may have to make some drastic, unexpected changes in your life to obtain solid, long lasting sobriety.
I know I did and it wasn't all pretty at the time I did it, but it's working out.
Faith is hard to believe, but that's sort of the trick, isn't it?

Hi crush
I drove with drinkers (drivers and passengers) for 20 years - now I realise how utterly ridiculous, selfish and stupid that was - it was dangerous not only for us but for all the other folks on the road as well. That we never had an accident amazes me.
Drive yourself or find a new pool, Crush.
