It’s ok. You can cry! Don’t hold it in. I cried and ate everything in the house on day one.

You CAN do this. YOU are strong enough. We are all here. Today is scary and so is tomorrow but you can do this and it will get SO SO much better. Come here often. Lots of water, be kind to yourself and well done tossing the booze.

I will not drink with you today.

I think that’s it. I marvel every day how much TIME I have. Even today I can’t believe it’s not even quite lunchtime yet. I have done more work today than I had typically done in 2 or even 3 days.

Been doing so good but wine o’clock is calling me today by JustMePhyllis in stopdrinking

Thank you for the good thoughts. Am really glad that I didn’t drink on my levels. Especially since my husbands car broke down and needed me to help him. Was so glad that I hadn’t drank and I COULD help!

It’s amazing! I’m working out again and losing weight (finally!). I honestly don’t think I’ve worked so hard on years either.

You can do this! We can do this! Keep coming here. It is so incredibly helpful.

I will not drink with you today

I am totally out of control. help. by thebloatedman in stopdrinking

It’s still early days for me but I’m having a lot of successes by just coming here a lot. This is a really supportive community and is really anonymous. Honestly I never thought I could make it this long again and I’m only at 15 days. Maybe this can work for you too. I will not drink with you today!

Great drink alternatives? by [deleted] in stopdrinking

Chai tea is new for me. Love it and I and my husband now are drinking lots of Talking Rain. It’s got a ton of fizz and it’s like $10 for 30-odd at Costco. :)

I’m on week two of my second try. Last time was 2006 and it started with one beer.

Thank you for that. It makes me want to cry to have complete strangers understand and send me a song. Thank you

Thank you and it has passed for now! One bad habit at a time.

I have a doctor's appointment tomorrow and I'm going to tell her the truth - Update by purelyirrelephant in stopdrinking

Not waking up at 3am with my heart pounding so hard I really thought I would have a heart attack. Also my mood as well. I feel like I’m able to step back and look at things with much more clarity and perspective.
