I’m at the end of Day 10 now, checking in. I felt so positive today but now I’m thinking about going on holiday and not being able to drink with my husband or not drinking at Christmas and I’ve started craving!!! Argh!!! Still, made it to double figures so it’s a win!

What would be the benefits of that? It doesn’t sound like it ever ends well.
You spoke about Christmas problems before:
Why would you want to be humiliated and horrified again?
Our addiction tells us things will be different but they never are.
Why not make some new traditions? They’re fun and there’s no shame and no hangover and no risk of hurting yourself, your husband, or your friendships.

Thank you so much for this. You are absolutely right. How is it so easy to forget the bad when the cravings are strong?! I needed to see my past post. I do NOT want to feel like that ever again. I never want to worry my husband or treat him badly. I want to remember all the good the holidays bring. And I want to make new traditions

Sassy has a good list she keeps on her phone to remind her why she chooses to stay present and clear (sober) - scroll down to the bullet points & you’ll see it.
You can make a list like this for yourself - I’m sure you can find a few things in just the last few days that are nice about being clearheaded!
Day Eleven! 
Happy Tuesday!
