Day 8
 

I went for a very late lunch today with one of my good friends. Starter, main and dessert with tea. I didn't drink. The waiter asked if we'd like some wine and I said I was ok with water but my friend would have something which she did. I didn't talk to her about it so it seemed like no big deal. I have to say internally I was grinning from ear to ear. A voice was saying just have one, there's nothing wrong with just having one. I looked ahead to tomorrow and I saw me. Hungover, sad and not feeling altogether great. Anyway...I'm home and I'm sober and I'm looking forward to a very productive Saturday x

Caravagio, Day 8? You are FANTASTIC. Congratulations. At day 8 I wouldn't dared be around a glass of wine or anything else for that matter, but I understood from the beginning that it was me that had to get out there and live in the real world without using. 2 years 7 months sober now I have been out with people who were drink and I didn't use. Good for you, Caravagio. :egypt:

Thank you sooo much. That means a lot. I know I have to be careful too and not put myself in unecessarily stressful or challenging situations. 2 years and 7 months...that is amazing and inspiring x

Well done! X

Well done. It's a great feeling and gets easier each time it's practised. I still maintain a healthy social life, I'm just even more choosier which ones I accept.

Congrats on day 8
