Day 4 thoughts....
 
Well i'm bed on day 4. Having a refreshing Apple and Cherry juice! Chilling and watching youtube. So that's good.

Today was really hard at work. When i'm stressed my thoughts turn to alcohol. I must have said 'i'm going to drink tonight' about 10 times. But at the end of the night when things slowed down and chilled, i decided not to.

I guess i'm gonna have to figure a way to deal with stress differently. And also ways to reward myself after a hard days work?

Also i can see improvements in one of my illnesses already. Not a massive difference but a little. I feel like i take care of myself better when sober?

Anyway day off tomorrow. I'm not leaving the house. A chill day to myself!!

Congratulations on four days. That was always a tough one for me.
I took the day off today and am really enjoying it.
Yes, take the day off tomorrow, you deserve it.

I’m on day 4 too, although been somewhat productive I’ve slowed down my tempo and making an effort to be nice to myself.
