Help wanted
It’s officially the weekend and I feel that little urge inside of me. I do not want to drink, but I know how the cycle goes. It’s all I’ve thought about the entire day. Not necessarily about getting drunk, but how am I going to stay sober. Does that make sense? Help.
I thought about how I was going to stay sober every day for probably the first 90 days of recovery. That's how I stayed sober. If I had thought about drinking every day, I'd have drank.

Ditto for me. Its good you are thinking about being sober. You can do it. First few weekends are very tough.
one thing i was told early on:
dont pick up the first one and eventually i would learn.
Not necessarily about getting drunk, but how am I going to stay sober. Does that make sense? Help.

Thank you so much for taking the time to respond. I am trying very hard to focus on being in the here and now and not let my thoughts focus on drinking.

[QUOTE=Dee74;6851154]Have you read any of the action plan links Siyo
they're specifically about staying sober
Thank you so much for responding. I don’t have an action plan, yet, but it sounds like something I definitely need.

Makes perfect sense! Not picking up the first one makes perfect sense, too.
