When Iām feeling moody, I tell myself that āThis too shall passā. Feelings donāt last. Making the choice to feel my way through no matter how uncomfortable it is and reach out to someone that will tell me it will be okayā¦just donāt drink. Do I want back the consequences of past behavior or do I want to just scream in a pillow or cry in the shower? Tomorrow morning, do I want to wake up with a hellish hangover and full of regret and still have the problems lingering or do I want to be proud that I fought through the bullshit that happens in life? We are not immune from lifeās difficulties but weāre also not alone. Itās going to be okayā¦just donāt drink Donāt be willing to give away your hard earned sobriety for a bad day. You know how it will turn out. Youāre a fighterā¦keep fighting.
Go take a hot shower, make yourself some tea, and listen to some good music.

Everyone was proud of me n there tonite itās like Iām in a fight of my life!! But I did open up tonite to her!!! But hardest thing is I came to a bar and Iām sitting outside of it when I made the call to her!!! She told me to do nothing n wait on her, she be here ASAP!! I came to this group because I can talk in here n be myself

Exactly. I think weāve all been in a similar situation. Itās great that you tell people closest to you your truth. We donāt need to do any of this alone. This is a battle and we need all the support we can get. Iām proud of you for not giving in to āthe monsterā We relate to one another.

Kassie82, you are doing brilliant!! I am nearly 14 days in and also having a moody day, have been for a walk, done the ironing, watched a film, fell asleep and all without drinking, now reading this app to remind me why I stopped drinking, anything to distract, change mood etc. This too will pass is a great thought. Keep going, the sun will rise tomorrow and you will be glad you stayed strongš

Hey Kassie I feel ya. In truth the only help so far for me is to focus on the fact that drinking only wrecks my life therfore giving it up is not a sacrifice.
always easier said then done I know, but the more I tell myself im missing out on something the harder it is to fight. So I remind myself Im only āmissing outā on feeling angry and trapped so that helps. Praying for you and continued success !

My first 15 days I was so moody!! All I was doing was crying n wanted to tell everyone around me off!!! I kind thinking I locked myself away in my room for week are two because I didnāt want no one to know what I was going through because I always let myself down when I try to be sober!!! But Iām back to myself these days but Iām happy as hell (sorry)lol
