So I lasted 10 days all in all this time, I made the mistake of having just one on Easter and it ended up in a binge. It’s 12 hours since I had my last drink and Have made the choice to start again and make it last this time.
The anxiety cripples me initially but I know it gets easier and better the longer I keep alcohol away from my body.
Hopefully this time I can make it work and will definitely be getting back to regular meetings.
Take stock of how you feel, and remember this the next time you’re tempted by “just one” - as others have said, 1 is too many and 1,000 is never enough for us…
You’ve got a great plan, you can do it!!
Don’t get beat up about it. Head down, go again.
1 is too much, 100 is never enough…
You cant just have 1, not having that first 1 is the only one you will ever have control over…
Drop the word “Hopefully “ from your thoughts. That sentence works a hell of a lot better then.
Don’t beat yourself up. Learn, adjust and move forward!
I’ve made it through this long so I’m just taking it hour by hour. This app and community help, I always find myself drifting back on every few hours to have a read of someone else experiences and it makes you feel a little less hard on when you realise you’re not the only one fighting your addiction.
You are definitely not alone now youve got all of us
