I am on day 14....i am very stresed and have a lot of pent up energy today.... Was doing good until about an hour ago i got the strong urge to get high... When i am hyper and have a lot of adreneline i have found that triggers me.... When i get high i also drink with it. I am borderline premeditating right now😩😩😩

​​​I know they always say that just because you think it doesnt mean you have to do it..... Trying to distract myself and let it pass as they say. I have been doing well although i havnt gone to a meeting in 3 days and then my ride to todays meeting cancelled because she is sick...

Hoping i can ride this out!

Drinking water, eating sweets or going for a walk [Or all three of those] worked for me with drinking but not sure about other addictions.

You can pull through this. One min or sec at a time.

Hope you rode out the urge. Glad you came here for support. Keep coming back. Unfortunately the stressful days don’t go away with quitting, but with help from SR and other supports like AA you can break the pattern of drinking in response. Hoping all looks better in the morning!

Yes, Rsanchez, if you're reading this, welcome back, however Day 14 turned out.

Please let us know, if you want. Or don't. Either way, welcome to Day 15, or whatever day it is when you see this.

Take care of yourself.
