lost count
should I be counting the days sober because I cant remember how long I've been sober, I'm sure I'm approaching a week and I kinda feel like I don't have a problem anymore.
shandy worked for me its only weak in fact its so weak that children can buy it

Hi there. Congrats on a week....or whatever it is. I think counting days is a personal choice. I don't but I do know my sobriety date...so I can tally anytime I feel a need. Losing count after only a week? Might still have some brain fog. It is easy to start thinking I don't have a problem after I start feeling well. That is my addiction pushing me to drink. I just have to remember that normal drinkers, moderate drinkers do not try to quit, have terrible consequences from their drinking and join recovery sites to stop drinking.
Only you can decide however. Good luck,

For me I can't drink anything with alcohol not even a stale glass of fruit juice if I can avoid it
Lanidus why do you think you chose shandy over the millions of types of soft drink available
Some drink NA beer and that choice is thiers but I know if it looks like it tastes like it eventually il want the real thing some may never come to that conclusion & that's cool but I know believe me I know I can't do that
You chose a drink with alcohol in it ? why is it important if it has alcohol or not ?
You don't have to answer that & I'm not judging you but at least think about that

I think you'll find it takes more than a week to deal with a problem you've had for years Ianidus.
Not saying that to burst your bubble - I think it's important to have a clear picture of what to expect.
Don't do what I did and confuse abstinence with control.
We don't have premixed shandy in Aus I suspect it would have been like NA beer for me tho...
I had the taste, more or less, but I missed the buzz, and though I was doing so well I could handle a drink or two of the real stuff...

If you're drinking something with alcohol in it, you don't have any sober days. Sober days are just that: sober. Stop drinking shandy and start your count over again, to be honest.
you might want to take some time and search here of people who tried similar. in every instance they ended up back to drinking worse than before.
