I love that, Fran. Spent so much of my life convinced that there was/is something wrong me. Still unlearning those thought patterns, and this was nice to read! :slight_smile:

My issue is not alcohol but sex. Anyway, the answer is yes without hesitation, I can give it up forever. I’m quite content without it. I’m not implying that I need to, have to or want to. I will be free no matter the cost.

Still in my first week of quittng alcohol. I am having my ups and downs. But all in all its the best decision I am making for my life. I sleep better, eat better, have more energy, and my brain doesn’t feel like it’s all over the place. I have been cleaning and drinking lots of ginger ale and tea to help with the cravings. I still love my beer but I’m getting stronger to keep saying no!

Day 199. Stayed home from work. Not feeling 100%, but better than I had been. Gonna log some PS4 time, and live between the couch and the bed this weekend.

Have a strong day!!!

Day 18. Feeling strong today. Tested myself by coming away in my camper with dog to coast which i love regardless. But always had my wine first thing i did when i arrived. Was not sure how i would be… but arrived and had tea then straight out for walk and caught lovely sunset this made me happy. Back at van having lime and soda. Normally go pub for tea and wine but ordered pizza from site. Read then watch some films… rather then crash out from too much wine. I am not tempted all today!!!
@GVLNative @Jen2020 @Shannon1980 hope you all having a good day :innocent:

Wishing all of you a great day or night sober

  1. I’ve been in America this week. The journey here was mad. 22 hrs all told. Today I’m heading back to Heathrow. I love America - Its an incredible country and it speaks to me in a way that England never has and Czech Republic never did. I’ll be moving here at some point in the near future and I’m looking forward to that adventure but before I can do that…Theres a huge storm heading over the Atlantic right now and I am heading right for it :slight_smile:

I’m with you there as I’m in day 12. In my early stages it’s been a bit of a struggle not to go into my old habits of the bar after work and the liquor store after the bar. I’m staying away from going out at all after work or the weekends (cat and dog must be getting sick of me) until I feel I can trust myself to go and not drink. Stay strong!

Good evening lovely bunch! Checking in on day 128. Day has started so well. Was really in a good mood. Friday happy mood. Which changed as the afternoon went on… Strangely I thought If I drank now nothing absolutely nothing would be better… Instead everything would be so much worse. This was the only positive thought I had this night… Hopefully it will be a better day tomorrow.
