Thank you. It’s so true. Mindset is everything. Not just in sobriety. Every aspect of our lives 
Great job! You held strong.

I was very good at drinking when the going was good. I was thinking I drank because I didn’t deserve happiness. Saying I couldn’t “handle happiness” is putting it another way. Similar idea but a little different.

I’ve been a server atva very busy bar since I got sober 82 days ago. It’s tough at first for sure! I would always drink at work and after and before… but now I see people getting trashed and it’s a reminder that I was worse then they are, and they are not attractive drunks. Also since I’m use to the bar atmosphere it has helped with other social situations while not drinking. I’ll go to other bars with friends and have some tacos and a lemonade and when it starts getting rowdy I dip out, because I can drive my car. Sober. Good luck to you, hope this was helpful!
