Just crushed my interview and have the urge to go party and celebrate. Not going down that road. Not today and hopefully never again!

Be strong my friend… Reward yourself with something that you aren’t trying to give up. Trust me on this. I know from experience. You will regret it.
Don’t do it @alpine_1975! Stay strong! You can celebrate in other ways. Treat yourself to a massage… a nice dinner… a gift for yourself… you don’t need that drink. And it won’t make you feel any better tomorrow morning. Trust me
I will stay strong! It just helps to post about urges especially with all of the great support we give each other. Thanks

Well Ill tell you this, I went 108 days sober and on my birthday I thought I earned a drink.everything was fine, a beer here on one day and there on another day and then suddenly I was throwing away 3 empty bottles of wine over a span of only 2 days.Im back at square one.2 days sober.
Try to treat yourself to other things.
Right now Im working on looking at outdoor excercise as a treat. It really does feel amazing. Try to find that something.

I did same. 3 months. I wonder if I have a problem… so I had a drink. I myself didn’t want one but the alcohol monster did in my brain. Stay strong my friend

The thought is great but you will hate yourself when you wake up.
