Here I go again. Binged on Thursday afternoon, and still feeling the pain today. Since tomorrow is the official start of summer decided to rededicate myself. Keeping goals simple: make it to my birthday in June, through 4th of July, and then labor day weekend. Really need to work on the mental aspect of denying myself something that makes me feel awful (Annie Grace and Allen Carr). It is strange, my problem is not social situations where people are drinking, it is when I am alone. Also starting a new job, with a “normal” schedule, so here is to jumping into that as a AF person. Happy Summer

Good luck. One day at a time
Think of all the wonderful things you’ll be able to go out and do in the sunshine without a stinking hangover, and extra money in your back pocket

Good to know that you’re not giving up.
Please keep us posted. Thanks.
I think that was part of my trigger on Thursday…near the end of the week and I actually had some money left…but yes going forward going to invest that cashola in something positive not destructive.
Good lad 
Any ideas what you would spend the money on instead?
Camping and fishing, already got my next trip planned. If I make it to it sober, will pay for itself.
Great incentive 
Maybe you need to change the thoughts from what you are denying yourself to what you are giving yourself. You already know how bad the drink is for you so just tell yourself, over and over, that you want nothing to do with that poison. Say if daily. Say it thrice daily if you must. Make yourself believe it.
