4 days… tick tock

To be honest, today could have easily gone the other way… my 3 year old daughter started throwing up every 20 minutes at midnight, none of us got any sleep, 5am at the hospital for IVs etc, she is fine thank god just a bug, but it’s left me physically and mentally exhausted, would have been so easy to have a drink you know, just to get me through the evening, kept telling myself it’s not going to help, it can’t do any good for you or her, what good would it do? Got through it, was tempted though

Well done being accountable here. And good for you for staying sober for yourself and your family. Glad your daughter is feeling better. I relapsed after 5 years and am on day 15 today. The first 10 days were rough but now I’m seeing and feeling some clarity. I’m reminded of why I do this sober thing to begin with. Wishing you the same.

Way to go 5 days and amazing will power the other day when you decided it was no good for you or your daughter for you to have a drink. I hope she is doing better.

Right here with ya Bob. It’s been 5 long years and every birthday or holiday I say it’s my last just to get in my feelings and drink. I’m so tired and just want to end my drinking career once n for all.

You can do it, it’s not the weekend, it’s just one more day today of saying not today, and then the next one.

That and have some things planned to keep yourself busy, any outstanding projects at home, or one to start?
