Seems like I quit, fall off wagon, drink for two years and then come back again. Third times a charm

Sick and tired of being sick and tired. Was Drinking almost every night. Dealing with heavy anxiety yesterday and today, just trying to get thru today. Came here today to read and get support

Thanks! Honestly, all I am doing each day is trying to get through and make it one more day without drinking. This time around I have decided to take vitamins, drink lots of water, eat whatever I want until I get to a healthy place. When anxiety strikes, take deep breathes until the “buzzing” stops. Today was a low day for me—very sad all day. My family knows I quit, so I am being held accountable for not drinking. Honestly, I’m just surviving at this point.

Wonderful to see you, Suzie. 3 wks. is something to be so proud of.

Have you changed up your routine much? I was very rooted in routine when I drank, so shifting things up helped break some of those associations. Even something as simple as spending more time in a different part of the house, different chair, etc. Bonus if you pick up a new activity that you never did while drinking.

Three weeks sober is great, do what it takes to protect that.
