I’m proud of myself for getting this far but at the same time am recognizing that this could be the point where I mess up and drink. Not drinking so far hasn’t been horrible but I haven’t really been tempted yet either. I’ve been staying away from drinking situations, but next week is thanksgiving. I’m going to my girlfriends family’s house and it’ll be a nice holiday and I can see myself rethinking. The world won’t end if I have a drink then, but I’ll be disappointed because
I genuinely want to know what 30+ days sober feels like. I bet the holidays will be hard for lots of us but we can be strong! Also you can use what would’ve been alcohol calories on yummy thanksgiving food haha

Don’t be afraid to say to your girlfriend and her family that you can’t attend if you don’t feel comfortable going.
I had one of those situations come up, and I explained why I couldn’t go. They were more than understanding and are supportive, in which I am blessed.
I’m at 34 days now and feel confident in going to events now without fear of wanting to drink.
