More than 2 weeks without a drop of alcohol, yay! It has been a bit more easy than expected, mental preparation was so important, else i’d been failing at the first 48h as always, i think. In any case, this is a small milestone, still.
I’m a bit scared about relapsing, because the little/big monster (as per Allen Carr books) can jump anytime, but i’m very happy right now.
This friday we have a birthday party including going to a disco, a bit scary at first, but already told the host that i quitted alcohol so please have soft drinks (told him it was about getting fit, i don’t feel comfortable to tell anyone about the illness as they usually see us as bad people instead sick people).
I will post here the progress of my milestones… I have been drinking alcohol (basically beer) almost every day since 13 years ago, trying to stop almost every day, but i hated me that i was not able to stop.
Thank you very much for your messages. A lot of us doesn’t post messages, but reading you is one of the best and effective thing we can do to fight against addiction. THANKS
@Lino this is an awesome forum .and congrats day 15 ! any effort is a Milestone as i see it. You are not alone at this. Keep it up and good luck With the party. Stay sober stay happy
Just passed Day 15 as well! And, went to a house party Friday night and managed to ignore my cravings for a bottle of wine (or two); left the party after a few hours and was happily home sober, but also managed to have a fun time chatting with new people and eating good food. Who knew! Here’s to more parties & gatherings we will now remember!!
