Three weeks today

Well it’s been three weeks so far ..can’t say the thought to drink hasn’t crossed my mind ,, I just try and find other things to occupy myself . It seems when I am bored the urge hits me ,like this past weekend when I’m not working , that old familiar voice is whispering in my ear , just a small bottle of wine won’t hurt ,, you’ll do better this time bla bla bla ..shut the f up . How the heck do you ever turn that off? Anyways need to stay strong ,, am following up with my dr . Today to see how the meds are helping with the addiction , I’d say 50/50 I’m far happier , and my sleep is almost back to normal . I’m going to give it a good month , I really didn’t drink when I was depressed , as I was never really depressed , I would drink when I’m happy , sad, bored etc . But I’ll def take her advice , Happy Monday everyone ❤️😀

Congrats on 3 weeks Maribell

I dunno I ever managed to 'turn it off' - but the more I stayed sober and the more I built a sober life I loved, the less powerful and insistent the voice got...it ended up as a half hearted whisper...then nothing
