Seen too many sober white knuckle alcoholics use them as an outlet then BANG they graduate back to alcohol

I’d be too nervous to start drinking them. It would jumpstart my cravings more than likely.

Your talking about my father. 
He wouldn’t listen and offcourse he is drinking again.
I hate it but I let it go. I cannot change him or anything about it.

I decided to quit drinking two weeks ago and I was drinking coke schweppes and pepsi.
However yesterday me and wifey were going to a country house that I love. Make bbq, swim, play with the dogs. That place triggers me an IMMENSE craving of beer. Usually I would waste myself and on the evening wife should drive us home.
So on saturday I decided Id buy heineken 0.0 which I believe tastes better than most of the alcoholics beer I ever tried. They hadnt it on the supermarket and I bought a lesser mark, only 3 cans because I thought it would be horrible.
Let me tell you this: I had all of the three while making the bbq and was surprised that it wasnt that bad. I mean it tasted like an ordinary average beer. I only took one schweppes because it was so sweet. I think there must have an physical aspect of my alcohol addiction (sipping several cans obsessively) like the sucking habit of smoking and for this one the non-alcoholic beer worked just fine. It didnt trigger me at all the desire to drink common beer, it fooled very well my brain.
I wont abuse on it tho because probably will take me dangerous closer to a relapse. But for emergency situations I will try to have a backup of good non alcoholic beers. Good thing that they are even more expensive that alcoholic beers so I wont make an habit of it, but only for emergency. This morning I won my 2 weeks badge!
Look up liquid death water! The sparkling kind is awesome. It has the same can feeling and that crack when you open it but it’s water!
