Made it through day 2

Hi SR! End of day two, now the real battle starts for me. Day 3 or 4 is when I convince myself that I deserve some beers (at least 12), so I'm bracing for that. Even day 2 brought temptations: 2 coworkers going to drink after work and a friend texted me about going bowling. My friend parties really hard (he's independently wealthy) and I love hanging with him, but I'm not going to any time soon. Don't need the temptation. Anyways I'm hanging in there, and the search for a new apt continues tomorrow! Cheers

Great job, Blowfish! Each time you make it over one of those hurdles you'll grow stronger. Very proud of you - it's going to feel great to be free of the poison.

Hi Blowfish. Day 3 seems to be hard for most. But getting past it gives you fuel to keep going on to further milestones. Congrats on getting past the temptations you just have.

it's much easier to search for apts. and do those daily living tasks when you are sober.

if Day 3 is a tough hurdle, reward yourself in a different way. A new token of something you like and can afford that will also take time shopping for. I had to change up my whole routine too after work at first, even the route home.

congrats and it will feel like such a victory tomorrow.
