Not sure what to say but it feels like a switch clicked in my head today and my eyes were opened.
Yesterday I bought 2 sixpacks to last me over the holidays and today I saw that they’re empty. And the expensive whisky for special occasions too.
I didn’t even have a reason to drink that much. I’ve officially lost control.
So no more “only on weekends”. Or “not at home” Or “not alone”. Or “not more than 2 beers”. Tried all that, didn’t work.
I am not going to drink today. I don’t need to drink today. What a liberating feeling!
That’s great! I’m proud of you, you got this.
If/when it gets hard, just focus on the day you’re living and get through that. Put your hands to work on something. Distract yourself and try not to think about the future. And remember that there’s always someone here cheering for you.
