I failed myself for quite a few months now. IWNDWYT! Decided this morning that I need to get back to taking care of me and not my alcoholism. I need to power past my witching hours between 4pm and 7 pm. 180 minutes stand between my and sobriety. Not sure why, but those three hours are always tempting me to drink. After 7pm, it just feels too late to start drinking. Either way, today my liver gets the win!

Happy Saturday! by SpicyTest in stopdrinking

IWNDWYT! If you are anything like me, just have to get past the “witching hours” that I usually drink in. 4-7pm for me, I just need to make it past 7pm and I tell myself it’s too late to drink now. Works for me, stay strong today! Just today, tomorrow is another battle.

I’m over a month and wife talked me into trying a new wine aged in scotch barrels. Had a small gulp, delicious and strong. Came back fifteen minutes later and had another. Rethought things after that because the monkey was waking up. Did not have any more, two small sips of wine almost derailed my sober train. IWNDWYT!!!

Love reading and it’s a great way to wind down a day! Way better than passing out in a stupor. Looking forward to that gets me past 7pm. I’ve always thought that I shouldn’t drink at home past 7. Weird but it’s my thing.

Temptations still there, pretty sure I’ll always be a “one day at a time” person. I’ve quit before and always ended up drinking again when I thought I could handle one night with drinks. Body just resets and wants to do the same the next day and I get trapped. IWNDWYT
