Evenings are the worst!
Evenings are the worst!
I think the hours from 3-8 are hardest for me, and there are days I clock watch waiting for it to hit noon so I can have a drink! Happy to say Day 5 is nearing its completion alcohol free!! So hard this is! Church in the morning and more family time!!! On to day 6!
lilgolden73,
3-8 were my prime drinking hours too! After a while they get easier. I still get an anxious feeling around 2:30 but it is gone by the time I get home. Congrats on day 5 thats a huge accomplishment!

I am closing out day two and I agree it is hard. I keep reminding myself I felt great when I woke up this morning. I also did s race today and although I finished, if I had been sober I would have trained a lot better and probably wouldn't have felt the dehydration I did. For me 5-9 are the hardest hours, which is why I am on SR right now!!!!

I did the same kind of stuff. I sat quietly in the back of the meeting rooms hoping no one would ever notice me. I would go to meetings further away from me too. I was a ghost in those rooms for a long while. Even when I did that I realize now that it helped me. I learned what AA and its program of recovery is about even if I wasn't involved at all yet.
I can't speak for you but I KNOW that I can't quit on my own. I've already tried on my own. In many different ways. I need help. So far, AA has helped me stay sober for over 50 days. I've never made it this far before.
