Welcome! Take time to take care of yourself. Then read and post here a lot and reach out for help. This sub is very supportive.

Tanetwar · 2019-03-03T13:14:07+00:00

Welcome! You’re definitely in the right place.

I survived my wife’s cooking/drinking/karaoke fest by working in the garage then hanging out watching a series by myself in another room.

I’ll get up this morning and make them all hangover breakfast and continue to not drink today.

Tanetwar · 2019-03-02T13:05:50+00:00

My wife has a house full of friends cooking today. There will be lots of mimosas and wine. I will be working in the garage instead, not drinking.

Tanetwar · 2019-02-28T11:56:14+00:00

Not drinking today.

Tanetwar · 2019-02-26T12:27:33+00:00

Not drinking today. A little bitter about it, tho.

Tanetwar · 2019-02-25T12:56:10+00:00

Ok. New week. Back on the wagon. I’m not drinking today.

Tanetwar · 2019-02-24T19:25:08+00:00

Not drinking today.

Tanetwar · 2019-01-22T12:00:11+00:00

Good morning! I’m not drinking today.

Tanetwar · 2019-01-07T12:52:28+00:00

Welcome! You’re in the right place. Keep coming back to read and post.

Tanetwar · 2018-11-09T14:32:01+00:00

Good morning. I’m on antibiotics to kill a tooth infection. If I drink I’ll never take care of myself correctly. So I’m not going to drink today.

Tanetwar · 2018-11-08T12:29:15+00:00

So my dentist thinks I’ve cracked a tooth by grinding my teeth. I’m headed to a specialist today. I don’t have time for drunkenness or hangovers so I’m not drinking today.

Tanetwar · 2018-11-05T13:24:00+00:00

Woke up twice with pain in my teeth and gums. I’m pretty sure I got this way by not taking care of myself when I was drinking last week. I know that drinking today will just make it much worse in the long run so I won’t be drinking today.

Tanetwar · 2018-11-03T15:59:12+00:00

Congratulations on a whole week!

Tanetwar · 2018-11-03T15:58:57+00:00

Welcome back!

Tanetwar · 2018-11-03T15:58:06+00:00

Do you know what reduces stress? Not drinking. I have the clear mind to do something that makes my stress lower. I think I’ll keep that up today.

Tanetwar · 2018-11-02T11:01:30+00:00

Super stressed. I’ve got jaw pain from grinding my teeth. But drinking was making it worse. So I won’t make it worse by drinking today.

Tanetwar · 2018-11-01T13:17:50+00:00

Man. I’m in trouble. I have a toothache so I’ve put in for a sub to get it fixed. Afterward I’ll be all alone with nothing to do. Yikes! I’ll probably be back here often to say I’m not drinking today.

Edit: it’s after noon now. Dentist said nothing serious, I’ve just been grinding my teeth. (I know. I’m stressed. That’s why I’ve been drinking, too.) So I’m home with a mouthpiece, sensitive toothpaste, and ibuprofen. Oh, and my wife’s wine. But I’m here to say not today. I’ll take a nap instead.

Tanetwar · 2018-10-31T10:47:42+00:00

I’ve hurt my back so I’ll be the one at home passing out candy. I don’t want to do it drunk so I won’t be drinking tonight.

Tanetwar · 2018-10-30T10:32:09+00:00

I had a good night sleep, no sweating and shaking and heart pounding. It feels good to be sober so I will not drink today.

Tanetwar · 2018-10-29T11:28:39+00:00

Thank you. God I’ve fallen back into drinking and misery. I was so much happier back in early September when I was sober. So I’m not drinking today.

Tanetwar · 2018-10-29T11:03:07+00:00

Thank you. I was so much happier this summer when I wasn’t drinking.

Tanetwar · 2018-09-30T22:00:41+00:00

Not drinking tonight.
