If you made it 5 months last year, you definitely have the will and power to do it again, and as you know from your last longer period of not drinking it gets easier after a while. Right now, you have to shoo away that nagging voice, and it will get quieter after a while. I visualized the devil whispering into my ear when I wanted to drink, and that helped me give my addiction a face, a face I could fight, so yeah, your idea of doing the same is a good idea.
Sending you a lot of strength and endurance. Have a sober and good day 
!

Congratulations on your 10 months 
@Mno I hope today is kind to you your absolutely right that those things will not help, I know you wonāt. Remember it is ok if you just need to curl up in bed for a day, as long as you feel that would help how your feeling.
If not maybe push yourself to go for a 30 min bike ride. Iām thinking of you today friend. Iām here for you.
Congratulations on your huge 1382 days 
@FeelingBetter 20 days big congrats 
@DryIn785 Your doing so well, Iām glad you popped in here when feeling alone. I do this. This is my second home. Iām sure it is for many of us 
. Congrats on your 13 days 
I remember how difficult it was for me to string just a couple of days together. I donāt think thatās something il ever forget. I hope not anyway, it keeps me accountable and grateful. I have you in my thoughts and I believe in you 
@Eclipse 8 days is great, you have pushed through some of the hardest days. Do everything you can, meetings, being here are just a few examples. For me when it got really bad and I was close to a relapse over the holiday period it helped to use the search bar and type in relapsed. Read those threads. They reminded me of how bad it really was to go back. How Iām fooling myself that Iāll enjoy it. Itās a dark reminder of what life will go straight back to buy also see how others managed to get through those times too.
Iām glad your here.
@EricOnt congratulations on your 15 days
@Noshame Congrats on both your timers hope you managed to get some sleep.

Finally got prescribed a non-addictive pain medicine for my sciatica but itās not really doing anything. Woke up twice already and had to stretch in a hot shower and yoga mat, drink tons water, stretch some more and now Iām laying on this heating pad specifically made for back pain which seems to be helping. Just checking in to say listening to my body was more pragmatic, albeit way more painful in the short run, than just trying to switch off the signals. I have more insight into how this injury is working because of a really bad night like tonight, which isnāt over, than if I just zonked out like Ginger in Casino. Did not relapse but it easily could have gone that way if I donāt think of everyone here I keep cheering on. I donāt want to be a fraud so I really want to put in the grind that I know is demanded of everyone else is more or less going through. So hang in there guys Iām right beside you. We do this everyday, no days off!

Day 1 
I have been better about drinking less recently, but I want to actually stop. āOccasionallyā always turns into every day. Just downloaded this app and i appreciate all of you being here and im so proud of you guys.
Its currently the end of the night and im feeling a bit depressed, but i know i can handle it. Its just looming. Normal life responsibilities on top of the fact my bf passed away a year and a half ago, its just everything isā¦ bleh. I wish i could pause my thoughts or emotions sometimes. But im grateful for where im currently at in my life and for the things that have been going well for me. Im going to sleep soon, tomorrow is a new day.
