Love it. What a great idea.
Yay for double digits!! Things will settle down the longer you go. Just keep taking it one day at a time!
I’m definitely taking things one day at a time! I have a 14yr old daughter who has mental health issues and she tests every nerve I have! Last night was horrible!
Today is one of those days I could “go for a glass of wine to relax and wind down”. I won’t. I will drink a tall glass of water and then some herbal tea. But, for whatever reason. I really really want a drink. I’m just going to observe these feelings and thoughts, play the tape through and be grateful for my objectivity in this matter. It’s romanticizing and nothing more.
We’re living parallel lives. I have a 14yo daughter with mental health issues and she has had a really rough week. I feel you!! Hang in there. I have an 18yo daughter too and I can tell you that it will get better! Hugs.
I feel you. So hard. It’s cold here and I used to love to sit in front of the fire at the end of the day with a glass of wine. NO longer an option. Proud of you for acknowledging the feeling and just moving on with the water and herbal tea plan. I’m meeting someone at a Meeting tonight to keep me from giving in. We can do this.
Yes we can. We can just as easily replace that glass of wine with a cup of warm tea by the fireplace. No liver damage and hangovers after such a pleasure.
I drink hot tea every night. My kids think I’m an old lady. I don’t care. It’s working for me so I’m sticking with it. Just sometimes that sneaky little voice likes to butt in. Stay strong!
Nice one Chrissy boy!
First night without it, still dealing with that crappy hangover from last night. I made a trail mix to help me with some flavoured water and hot tea.
Flavored sparkling water and hot tea are my life line! Good choices.
Thank you, im trying lol
Day 221 solid
Day 5. Not doing too great but not doing too bad either. Just trying to take it one day at a time
3 weeks sober today.
HAHAHA!
Oh me too! It’s a must when I’m not drinking. Just finished day 2 today and I am excited about ending it with a steaming hot cup of chamomile lavender tea.
Tea on friend!
Hot tea and sparkling water have been getting me through every day!
Yay! Great job!
Thank you! You too!!
