day 2 sober....on to day 3!
i didnt drink on sunday (though not through lack of trying), my boyf was up early in the morning so he went to bed early and didnt buy me any beer cause he didnt want to go out so late when he needed to sleep.
anyway, last night, monday, he was fine and okay to get beer but i had doubts about drinking so i told him i didnt want him to get any.
i was thinking about how much i wanted to get drunk, but also that it wouldnt be 'just tonight'. he always buys a case of beer cause its cheaper and that means that after last night i would still have another nights worth in the cupboard (maybe 2 nights worth), and if its in the house (or car) i will drink it.
so....i have now managed 2 nights - today (tuesday) is day 3.
im proud and happy but terrified.
im having big doubts that i will manage it-i have never gone 3 days without beer before-but i know my doubts will be my undoing as the negativity will make me cave, how can i get rid of these doubts?
having said that, i rarely make it 1 night without beer, so thats impressive. 2 nights (one of which i actually chose not to drink-first time ever!) is incredible.
i pray i can keep it up x

and he usually gives up, or has some in the car, as he is used to me giving in. in all honesty, he must not now what to do. i order him to not buy any more when im drunk but when im sober im begging him to get some.
(the reason i rely on him for it is because i look younger than i am and struggle to get served)
he knows im TRYING to quit but 'supports' me when i fail.
anyway, hopefully i can be strong again tonight x
