Glendora8

Haven't drank since Saturday and feeling a little stressed. I am still trying to forgive and love myself.
The alcohol in the wipe that I just used to clean my glasses just triggered a shooting up memory, a sensation that I haven't experienced in years.
Dancing has been my main outlet but my knee is hurt from me pushing to hard so I can't do that right now and I feel depressed about this.
Just trying to stay positive. I am just planning on me putting alcohol far enough behind me that I don't want it anymore. That is how I am with drugs now.

Five days, you're past the physical cravings. It will be emotional now. Take things easy, don't worry, and eat well. If you have an urge to drink, just put it off until "tomorrow". Day by day you can get through this!

Unfortunately In the past When I get a craving I'd tell myself "on this day I get to drink" and then get blasted. I don't want to drink anymore!!

You can do this. Just go to bed sober tonight. Don't think about tomorrow or the next day.

Five days is good, but still early in recovery. It can be rough at first. Treat yourself well, good food and rest.

Gratz on the 5 days. Keep it up. Do your best to keep your mind and hands occupied. It's rough at first but the sooner you can tell your AV I'm good I don't need it the better.
