getting strong now

I have made it through a tough New Years Eve. Dinner at the local pub with friends and no drinks! As I watched everyone do shots and drink, I saw a side of people that I used to be. The comradery was with the alcohol . I left and went home. My family had there annual party but I did not attend. I reached out to them to let them know I wasnt going to make it. I wasnt ready. I feel great this morning knowing I was strong and getting stronger. I will continue fighting.


Finish each day knowing you did your best. Tomorrow is another day, start well.

you will find camaraderie again used - but for now it's a period of transition and you're doing great

You've done the right thing in staying away from temptation for a while. It won't be forever, but we are all frail humans.
