The moment my alarm went off this morning my mind has been on repeat telling me to be ashamed, feel guilty, and basically playing out a million "what if" scenarios that will lead to me drinking again. Hard to stay strong when my mind is in such a negative place. Been though this cycle before and kind of anticipated it. I am new to SR and figured I would just get it out there.

Just mind games.
Remember that you hold the controller.
You're stronger than that voice that keeps trying to lead you on the wrong path.

Replace the million thoughts of drinking with just one thought, "I will not drink today."

Make it your mantra.

Then repeat tomorrow. Good luck.

It is the nature of the disease that brings those words to mind. Remember that they are just feelings and that you can let them go. Stay strong!
