Awesome job! I hid it in my closet also... I can do all things through he who strengthens me |
Zana girl!!!! I am SO proud of you!!! I hope YOU are proud of you as well. That was a huge step you did there. I will give you a virtual hug :Val004: I hope everything is else is starting to look a little less bleak xo |
Good thinking! Proud of you, too! ♡CR |
I hid bottles in my closet too! Of course, when I would find them they were empty! |
Great job!!! |
It's really just what we need to do if alcoholic We don't need to take too much credit for doing the right things MM |
But we all need credit for doing things right! :) |
You are winning! Congratulations! |
That's awesome! Way to go! |
Awesome!!! |
Nice story! Keep doing well... |
Thank you everyone for the congrats! It was difficult to do but given the circumstances I was throwing up so much over the weekend even the thought of drinking any kind of alcohol makes me cringe. Even today when I felt good waking up (although my sleeping will take time to get back to normal) the thought of alcohol sounds revolting. I do give myself credit and a pat on the back because I've never been able to do that before. Ever. Since the time I started drinking three years ago to today... to throw away wine or any kind of booze would be heartbreaking to me. Now, it's not so sad. I never give myself credit so it felt good to do so. Still proud of myself, and I'm glad you are all here to support and give me congrats. I hadn't realized I'd get so many thanks. I just wanted to share what happened. I know it takes one day at a time, but if you want and need this MORE THAN EVER we have to be stronger than our addictions. |

Well, low and behold I was gathering trash together and I found an entire bottle of Merlot in my bedroom closet. Obviously through my drinking binge days I would hide my alcohol in case anyone came over the next morning and all the bottles would be out and about. I hide my alcohol even when I'm home alone. I think I hide it from myself most of the time. I did the unthinkable. I opened the wine bottle and flushed it down the toilet. The entire bottle too. Yeah, the aroma alone was a trigger but I did it and felt good about it. I'm proud of myself. I just wanted to share. :) |
Great job!! :scoregood |
Fantastic! Thanks for sharing that-you should be so proud of yourself! |
Congrats Zana...I call it 'Pouring Out a Drink Offering'. RDBplus3 |
