Awww thanks! Into day 5 and feeling bloody good. It was a tough day yesterday but the cravings are no match for my determination this time.

Thanks @SassyRocks. Yes, the old ‘I’ll just cut back’ or ‘I’ll only have a couple’ delusion I think is what we all go through for a long time. I think the day you wake up and finally realise that this is impossible and one drink is too many, 100 is not enough is the day you can finally start your recovery.

Omg yes! The delusion of only a few drinks is crazy! Waking up sober is amazing! I just had to drop off my kids to their father and my 4 y.o. daughter ran away from him hysterically crying bc she didnt want to stay with him. When I left I had the worst craving for alcohol. I called my husband and we talked it out! Whew!!
