Was out Christmas shopping and started having a craving for a strong mixed drink. It dominated my thoughts. I went as far as getting money to hit a watering hole. Instead of stopping, I drove by. Then proceeded to get something to eat and get refocused. Found an AA meeting nearby.
I accept that I’m an alcoholic and with that I have to accept that these cravings will continue. I came real close tonight. Too close. Not today, alcohol. Not today.
Reset, readjust, and refocus. As many times as needed.
Great work! I feel great in my sobriety but that doesnt mean i dont still get cravings daily…the point is how we manage them…love your approach, the end result is amazing and thats all that matters
Edited to add that i think your very cool, not almost
I had many of those headfuck conversations in the past and failed 100% until the day I didn’t ,this is a very important little win.
