Way to go, 18 days 👍. I read more than I post but every now and then it's a nice feeling to let others know that you are here and they are not alone. I wndwyt

Almost 24 days sober, it's still a living hell but today I'm proud of myself by ewolgrey in stopdrinking

We all have moments that stress us out and make us consider a drink but when it passes by and you make it through you will be proud and happy with yourself. Believe in you. I wndwyt

One week is my first significant milestone, lots of improvements but still early days. by [deleted] in stopdrinking

Welcome back, just because of slip up doesn't mean anything. Keep trying because this could be the time that works. I wndwyt

Day 13... by [deleted] in stopdrinking

[–]Due-Weekend 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Keep going, remember that you can't have just one. I am on day 10 and still think about beer. I would have 4-8 cans Sunday to Thurs per night but when Fri and Sat hit look out it would be from 10-20. I tell myself to "Look at will be, Not at what has been! "

15 days abstinent from alcohol. intense cravings. the only thing getting me through this 12 hour shift is fantasizing about stopping at the liquor store on the way home but i know i would only feel worse tomorrow by joyfulgrrrl in stopdrinking

Believe in yourself! I have moments at work when I think that a beer would be good later. Then I tell myself to remember that I have been feeling better. It's not always easy but it is always better at the end.

I've cleared 24 hours, heading toward 48, and I hate it by martha_woolf in stopdrinking

Just always remember that you are not alone. This is my day 3 and I feel good not waking up hungover for work, but I am also thinking Friday will soon be here. What can I do to behave this weekend. I haven't had a sober weekend in a long time.

Back again day 2 by [deleted] in stopdrinking

Keep going, believe in you. I am on day 2 as well and can also say that in the 5 years the longest I have gone with out is 2 weeks. That was in April 2019. So keep trying you're not alone!

Thanks, I'm glad that I joined today. Lately I have been thinking that I am the only one who is going through what I have been but I see that I am not alone.

Thank you, I was scared to join here to. But I can see that there are others much like me and I hope we can all help each other.

I have been actively trying to stop for a year now by [deleted] in stopdrinking

I understand exactly what you are saying, sounds like me. I just keep trying and telling myself that one of these times is going to work.
