Not even a day yet
Thank you! I know there are many programs within the area..just that I do have a few ex-employees who I happen to know they attend meetings in the area. I'd just rather not see anyone I know at the meetings, I feel that the truly anonymous route is best for me. I will always keep it as an option though, as a last resort.

So I made it to 7-eleven and back without buying beer tonight. Great for day 2!! I didn't want to go since I knew I'd be tempted to get beer, but forgot I had ran out of food for my cats. I even actually cooked dinner for myself, I'm so used to skipping dinner and then eating microwave corn dogs or ordering a pizza if I remember to eat later. I'm still craving for a drink but at least for now I don't feel like it's too bad. Having an actual dinner with real food seems to help a little.
I don't know why but I have been spaced out today. I've been off work the past week but not feeling so great. I got a fever blister on my lip and am embarrassed to go anywhere with it so I've been holed up a lot. For some reason I keep opening my fridge and staring at it and then realizing that I must be looking for beer. I even felt strange driving to the store, like I was too spaced out to be driving or something. Anyone ever drive after not sleeping all night? or a couple nights? That feeling.
That is how I felt except I slept plenty last night. I heard "confusion" as a symptom of withdrawal, has anyone else had such incidents as doing weird mindless things in this stage? Just wondering.
So now to feed the cats and maybe find a show to watch.
Hope all have a great night!
