Really hard day!
Spent all day (day 9) wanting to drink. Ended up going running and sleep instead.
Anyway i work in a bar/restaurant. Spent all shift thinking about drinking, but i didnt. But I shouldnt be proud.
I asked a colleague for a glass of wine (we get two free drinks per shift) and he refused to serve me since i’ve done so well. So i then had to ask another colleague (who would have done) but i took a couple of minutes and thought about my boyfriend. So i walked out and went home
i quit smoking 3 years ago next week. I wouldnt thank anyone for a cig. Yuck! Hope i can get to that point with alcohol.......

You could have drank but you didn't, you thought about it, thought about your boyfriend and you walked out and went home. You did yourself proud, you deserve to feel proud. You did well.
Have you joined the 'class of June' here? If not, then think about joining it, you'll be with people then who are at the same stage as you in your recovery.
Daily gratitude is a good thing to practice too, gratitude plays a big part in my recovery, it's worth giving it a try.
You can do this. xx
