Day 3 I wanted to celebrate with u all my day 3 - baby steps and everyone has been so supportive with their own stories and their advice! ❤️ |
Yes, fantastic! |
Well done Wel. I found Day 3 Always to be a challenge. Congratulations. I hope you continue to post and come to share your journey. An exciting journey. Sobriety teaches us much. |
The nerves I have had tonight and anxiety is alot but I’m trying to shut the devils voice up! Finding it hard but the evening is nearly over! |
3 very tough foundational days on which to build. Hard-won days, those early days. But every single sober person with thousands of days sober has those first 3 right? You are in excellent company and you should be proud of your accomplishment. |
Well that is me in my bed, so today’s been a success. Did you find that removing all alcohol from your home was a good idea? |
I was the hopeless helpless kind of drinker at the end so there is absolutely NO WAY I could have had any alcohol in my home. 19 months in I still don't have any, but there are many folks on SR here who can stay sober with alcohol in the house. I don't know how they do it, but they do it. |
No alcohol in the house for me that's an absolute no-no for me.....much to tempting |
I did have 3 bottles of white wine in a cupboard all very expensive and a gift from my husbands workplace - I always preferred red wine which is why they were still around - I took some perverse pleasure in opening each one and pouring them down the sink last week - I don't think at the moment I would be at all tempted - but I can imagine there could be an evening when they might have posed a risk.....so they have gone.......much to my husbands horror but hey ho... |
In the beginning I had none. Knew I'd be circling it like a white pointer shark. I still have none because I know I'd be thinking about it, and don't want to. Too much unnecessary pressure. I can be around 'normal' drinkers now. If they start to become stupid I exit stage left. Youre doing great Wel17. |
Good work on getting through the day. Being safe and sound and sober in bed is a wonderful thing. Waking up sober even better! |

Yes, get rid of it. You're a non-drinker now so have no use for it. :) |
3 days is fabulous. Be proud. :yup: |
I removed all alcohol from my home :yup: congrats on day 3 Wel :) D |
No alcohol in the house, ever. It's an easy thing to do. :) |
At work - day 4! Been thinking about it most of the morning in here 😫 finding it hard! But I will not touch it it will not beat me! |
That's the ole addictive voice (AV) calling out to ya. Ignore it. Tell it you do not drink anymore. Not easy at 1st but with practice it does get easier. |
Yes, Day Four. It gets easier, Wel. Keep going on the Right Path. |
How you doing Wel? |
