hello

I'm finally able to post. Thanks!

So newbie here. I've been working on this issue for some time now. Roller coaster of a ride. I'm hoping that being here can help me stay focused on my being sober. I marked this day on my calendar a week ago but not to quit drinking. Funny, how that worked. Today I am done with the booze.

Well I've made it through the 5oclock hour. Pressure of the day is creeping up. Crazy. One moment I'm focused and the next, hmmm my mind drifts. The funny part is I want a drink but I don't. I really don't. I just want one.

I know it won't change the pressure of the day or fix anything that I can't. It will just upset my stomach and make me funny, sad or angry. And tomorrow I'll wonder what the hell I was thinking and wow I feel like crap!!! And did I really say that??!

welcome.

it's pretty normal to want a drink when you're trying like hell to stop drinking.

but here's the thing; DON'T.
