Last night was difficult. Today I woke sober again and feeling hopeful. Over 3 day’s now and I work with alcohol. What a test for me but so far so good . It’s a challenge but it’s alright. I’m doing good today . Little anxiety but tea is helping along with vitamin d and plenty of water . Anywho just checking in. Feeling a little overwhelmed tonight
Well done. Keep up the good work. You’re a strong person to be working around alcohol so early in recovery. Come back here often for support.
Can you describe what is tempting about the alcohol?
Willpower always fails eventually. The work is in making avoiding it effortless.
Thank you. I’ve been sober before and did it for a long time . I found that eventually I fell in bad habits in such caused the relapse. So this time around that change of perspective and will must change for myself. Thank you for the support!
I grew up with my parents owning a bar and have worked all my life in bars. It is hard at first but now i dont take any notice. One of the strategies i have is to only be in the bar when working. Once my shift finishes i remove myself. It is my work place not where i tend to socialize. Keep going your on the right road.
Thank you so much ! I appreciate that so much ! You have no idea.
