day 7 and hardest yet
 

Worried about how im gonna get through the weekend :(

Find some things you enjoy doing that don't involve going out with drinking friends or places where alcohol is prevalent. my first weekend I stayed home, did chores, read some books and watched some movies. Try to keep busy and your mind off not drinking/drinking. You can do this!

Keep a full stomach. Everyone is different, but this one totally works for me. After I eat, it's usually nap time :) and when I wake up, there's no desire to drink.

My problem is staying home.. i never go out and none of my friends drink so i was the odd ball. I didnt drink to get drunk ever... only to relax

I agree with Soberwolf. Lean on us here at SR. That helped me through a lot of weekends early on.

Also, do you have any hobbies you like that could keep you occupied?

Day 7 is fantastic!! Keep it going, you can do this!! :scoregood
