Day 1... again.
This is hard! I thought I could stop smoking and drinking at the same time as I enter the throes of PMS. Drank on the way home and then got a text from my neighbor about having wine... of course like an idiot I obliged that as well. It’s my fault for not calling out to someone on my drive home BEFORE I drank from the stress and annoyances of the day. Everyone was so nice when I posted on Monday and it was easy not to drink that day, but yesterday I folded and I’m sorry y’all. Trying again today
Hi Jeycey! I'm glad you came back here I've never struggled with quitting two addictions before, so I may not be correct when I suggest to try to quit the drinking first and then the smoking?? Hopefully someone will come along soon who has some more solid avice! I just wanted to let you know that I read your post and am cheering you on! You CAN do this
Welcome back Jeycey. You have the right thought process - coming here or calling someone to help before you drank would have been a good call. Perhaps you could join one of the class threads here to give yourself a little more accountability to stay close to your support?

Hi Jeycey, sounds like you need a plan of some kind, because when you feel like having a drink or someone asks you for a drink, it's very easy to fall back into old habits.
Prepare for the next time you may want to drink. Make sure you know how you need to react to stay sober.
