Ohme

Hey all. Day 4 here and its starting out good but Tuesday night is a trigger for me. Especially today I may get some important news because we're moving my business. But also because I start early and work late Tuesday. So I'm posting now and posting again once I'm home safe with no wine.
I have a thing where if I take a few days off my mind says "cured!" And I'm fine to drink again. But I know I'm not and 4 days is nothing to a normal person.
Thanks for listening and have a beautiful day.

If you are fully committed to never drinking again, what do you care what your mind says about your affliction?

Are you committed to sobriety? 100%?

Or are you still in negotiations with your addiction?

Ohme

Definitely committed. I was just using that to kind of explain what has gone wrong for me in the past and what goes on in my brain around day 4. But this time I know it's not true and it's not about being "cured" it's about reclaiming my good life without being dragged down by feeling like crap, looking like crap, and regret.

Have a great, sober Tuesday Ohme!

I'm here. Miserable and depressed but here.

Day four as well, hang in there. Today I poured my ice tea into a wine glass without even realizing what I was doing. Pathetic, so used to only picking up wine glasses.

Well this made me smile, if that's any consolation. And I kinda like the idea of iced tea in a wine glass. Fancy
See you on day 5 tomorrow.
