I’m 9 days sober but every time I walk into a store it’s everywhere you look, and it’s so hard to not buy it, I have come to the point to avoid the aisle all together. Also how to not drink when out with friends that are drinking. Please help…
I’ve just told my drinking friends that I’ve had enough of hangovers and generally being, and feeling, run down.
I haven’t mentioned the DTs!
Being out with them, while they’re drinking has been fine for me. I’ve just enjoyed them being happy and generally amped up my volume to match theirs.
It is odd initially though, when they quite quickly go from rational to slurring, rambling and giggling, getting upset then giggling again.
But it’s great driving home and getting a decent night’s sleep!
Sorry, I had a try at answering your second question, but not the first.
I tend to just do a weekly shop so it’s easy not to go down the alcohol aisles. I’m not sure I’d be too comfortable if it was in my face all the time.
Good luck for day 10!
Thank you! Yea I know it’s best for myself to finally quit it, my thoughts are becoming crazy to the point where I would count down the hours till I would open my 1st beer and always would have at least 6 to 12 at home waiting on me. It started coming first in my life. I will not let it control me anymore!
Yes it is. But I just kinda walk fast past the aisles now.
