Good man! Longest stretch so far. That’s great to see buddy! Really is.
Don’t be sorry, this is possibly the hardest thing you will have to do!
So start again, you know what it’s like now, learn from this.
If it means structuring your days then so be it.
I took days off, in my early days, like you, thinking better of going to work, but I stayed away from shops, staying at home where there wasn’t any temptation. Keeping myself glued to the TV.
Crack on then buddy, your doing great!

Im at 5 days right now. I can tell you this is super hard. Don’t let one day stop you. It will be way better in the outcome.

So now, you can make a plan to do more! Days 4-6 are notoriously hard for me. Whether, like you said, boredom or time kicks in, I haven’t been sleeping, my mind convinces me, etc. But you made it to FIVE. Now, stock up on some reading, hobbies, keep cleaning your house or play with your kids.
Reach out here BEFORE you slip. Someone is always around. I know, because I failed to do this 100 X or more. I am going to do whatever it takes this time around because I am pretty sick of days 4-6.
And no apologizes. Sorrow doesn’t help. Hard work does.

Like @EarnIt said, that first week was by far the hardest for me. Once you get past those first couple of weeks it does become easier as sober becomes your new normal.
Don’t beat yourself up and keep working hard, we are here for you!

Thank you. This morning I was about to do the same thing over by going to the shop. Luckily the shop is sold out of the brand.
So now, up to 16 hours I am been sober. I will keep trying and maintain.

Good man!
Get some structure in you life.
And continue to fight the urge. After all, you have total control over what your body does.
Not the little devil voice in your head.
