Battled the demon today
The AV was so strong today, kept saying of course you can drink you were fine omg, but I knew it would show it’s ugly self and all I kept in my head was the look on my children’s face if I picked up and ended up a drunken rambling fool, I have to be ready at all times for this as it sneaks up on me

Good for you for resisting! In the early days of my sobriety I found the cravings could be very distracting and demanding but it is definitely true that the more time you spend away from alcohol the easier it gets. This is another major battle won for you. Keep going. It just keeps getting better!

My AV struck me like a vengeance last night. I came and posted, read replies, talked to my husband and woke up sober. I would have been so shameful if I would have given into it. I know every time I can tune it out and not give in I will get stronger and the AV will get weaker. I just have to keep reminding myself that, although it can be so hard sometimes.
