Well, golly - I was addicted to alcohol. OF COURSE I would feel like drinking again. When that feeling came I would react to it by hoping it would go away. When it didn't in a few hours or days, I was back to drinking.
Hope: it's a great thing, but it isn't a PLAN.
The next time I feel like drinking I will _________________ instead.
Fill in the blank. That's the simplest short-term plan I know. It works if you use it.

Thanks for the Action plan Dee it is just what I needed. I am going to share it with others and not necessarily alcoholic. Think I'll start with the healthy food and water plan as I have lost a lot of weight, probably due to Valium WD . I'm doing really well there too down to 3.75mg. It is a slow arduous WD but has to be slow. The Action Plan is great.........who knows one day I might be in a girl's rock band which I intend to call The Rock Cakes for all you cooks out there. I love you all in a good way.
