Then don’t be Sharon. I’m not going to say it’s easy because it isn’t.
Can you go home a different way?
Do you have to do anything tonight?
I was fortunate to be able to have 4 days when I gave up when I did nothing. I didn’t go to work, I literally stayed in the house and watched the TV.
After 4 days I would only do the bare minimum. Just to keep myself away from temptation!
That’s the important thing here for you at the moment. Don’t put yourself in a position/situation where you would be tempted.

Yes i can drive home a different way, i know if i just go home and eat that helps, i just need to stop thinking about it and probably a couple Tylenol pm wont hurt, im afraid ill have trouble sleeping. I just cant wait until i get to a point where drink is not on my mind

Well, that’s a while away yet. Well was for me, and to be honest, it’s still there, just not as much!
I don’t know how much you have researched the topic, Sharon, but it might be worth spending some time tonight looking around here. Take in what people are saying, let it mull around. It’s what I did, took on so much information at the beginning.
If you need to reach out, there is usually someone around 24 hours as this is a global community.
