Day 2 Hello Everyone, So I'm on day 2 with no alcohol. I am currently away from home which is making this harder than I thought. I live in Utah but have been in my hometown in Oregon for the past month, house sitting for a friend who is out of the country. The only people I know in this tiny town are family..who drink like I do. I am headed back to Utah on Monday. I have a fiance there and soon to be step-son..I keep telling myself that maybe I should wait to quit drinking until I get home..but I know that is just an excuse and a bunch of crap.. I'm glad this forum is here. I have been alternating between reading, going running and coming on here to fill up my time..Thank You all for being here and the encouragement..Drinking is not an option today |
keep up the good work CeeFarro :c014: D |
well done Cee. The first week is the most tormenting in my experience. Keep yourself busy- the part of you that wants to drink will try every trick to convince you it is a good idea to drink and that you are over-reacting to your problems |
I applaud you! There is no, NO better time to get sober than now! :) Welcome to the SR family!! |
I also just cancelled a trip I had planned with my sisters(who also like to drink)I called and explained that I want to quit drinking and would not be able to make our annual vacation(which revolves around partying)..I figure why wait?..Now only if I could stop my brain from going a million miles an hour |
:) Good job on being sober day 2 CeeFarro Knowing drinking was no longer an option for me, became the reality that I don't drink no matter what. |
Your brain will slow down and it will get easier. Good for you for deciding to live a sober life. |
