Some days can be brutal. Glad you fought it! Great job. There have been 1 or two times I wanted to drink so bad, but focused on what I wanted even more...happiness, and I was not happy drinking.
Keep up the good work!

I think about going back but I know what I will be going back to. It always turns into deathwishing crap. I am so happy my lessons are finally penetrating my gray matter. Life still sucks but, at least now I can remember why. Smiling at you.

I agree with everyone here- the temptation is great, but giving in and having to start over is so much harder. Every time I wanted to "prove" to myself that I could drink moderately, I ended up hitting the bottle harder. Every time I did one day of not drinking just to prove I could, I doubled my alcohol intake the next day. So much easier just not to start after making the promise to yourself to stop.

I Think About Using Every Day, And When I Don't , I'm Closer To My Goal , Never Using Again . Its Gonna Take Time , Know This. It' You're Stinkin AV , Ignore Him , It Needs You To Go Get it. Without You It's A Just A Big Ole Lump Of ****. Remember How You Felt After Using , When You Get Those Cravings , Play it To The End. You Can Do this

Good for you for not using. Getting thru these days just makes you stronger IMHO. I still do have days where I want nothing more than to just get drunk. I'm not even interested in "just one drink". I will sit for a minute and think about where it is coming from and I will find something to distract me.
It is normal to have these cravings, however, they do scare me and thankfully I don't get them as much as I use to.
