5 days without a drink!

Hello!

This is all new to me! I had my last drink April 29th 2026 after I found out I have a fatty liver.

I was a daily drinker, drinking at least 2 drinks after work. Seemed pretty harmless to me. My Dr. Had advised me that my consumption should be 0 drinks especially with my depression medications.

I didnt think I “had a problem” until now.

I have been planning a girls night since January and finally were all getting together this weekend.

Im scared that I’llhave a drink. Ill try my best to abstain.

How do I get over this hump of me being anxious etc. I want to just enjoy my night with my friends.

(Dinner and mini golf are the plans)

Thanks!

Congratulations! You are going to feel and sleep so much better. In the very beginning, I had to avoid gathering such as that, but if you absolutely have to go grab a soft rake right away and food! Even if it’s just bread and butter, it has a way of knocking down that craving. Also, let them know you can’t stay very long so you could make a quick exit. I know one thing, the next morning you’re gonna feel so much better that you didn’t drink! That I can guarantee you hang in there, and even that night post on here it’ll be four years this week and in the very beginning when I had engagements such as yours, this group was a tremendous support. Best wishes! Bobby.
