Day two feeling anxious about the night
Good morning SR. Woke up feeling a little anxious about coming home tonight and wanting to drink. Its usually day 4 that I start to rationalize. I guess the main feeling is guilt. Just needed to share. Thanks
Wow, it's morning. Think about now. Try to remember to live in the moment and not in the future. It is something you can take control of now.
In early recovery, I would think maybe I can drink tomorrow, but for this moment, I choose not to.
I wish you a sober day today!!

I know the feeling...past 3 nights at my house have been very strange, as I usually drank most of the evening. It's like there's a hole there now, and uncomfortable. One minute at a time, one hour at a time, one day at a time. Thank goodness there was a fantastic special on last night about the lives of whales...kept me occupied.

Keep yourself busy. Make a plan. Go somewhere, see someone. I know in my case I set myself up to drink so many times because my resolve would waver over a long, difficult day. At some point my eff-it switch flipped and I drank. Not anymore, but I'm still aware of it. This disease will trick you, it's sneaky! It has so many excuses. Don't listen to it.
