Rough day today, went through the city which was nice to get outta the house but my nerves are just WRECKED at the moment so I didn't really enjoy it all that much, had an argument with a friend nothing major we have made up now, went to a PUB but I drank orange juice NO alcohol for me! But im just feeling flat today and feel like a drink

If you're serious about sobriety you have no business being in the pub so early on in sobriety

Glad you made it through sober. It's a learning process, figuring out the things you used to do that you have to avoid for a while or stop altogether.
On the flip side, it's a great opportunity to learn and do new things and even make some new friends.

Great job on having an orange juice!! . . . part of being Sober is learning how to deal with life without alcohol, because life still goes on, work, family, friends etc
When we would usually get lost in a bottle in the evenings we need to figure out a new stress buster, whether it's going to a meeting, a long walk in the fresh air, anything just to remain Sober and deal with the stress of everyday life!!

I am having one too. Rough day that is. I also have anxiety and i used to drink to handle anxiety and stress. Don't know how to do it sober. Been eating and i need to lose weight not gain. Need a new knee so exercising is out. Too cold to go out. Hate winter. Sorry i am rambling and just feeling sorry for myself. It is an internal struggle daily to stay sober.
