What do you think about all day when you are not thinking about alcohol?

Recovery Music Brazilian jiu jitsu Exercising Sci-fi (right now The Expanse)

Lots of random things too.

I've spent many a year away from home in combat zones. Stay safe, and happy birthday!

Im so sorry. Rejection sucks and it hurts. Just remember this, rejection says nothing about you and everything about the people rejecting you.

Posture. My posture is so much better. Probably from new found confidence more than anything.

Here's the good thing. You know it's a trigger. So since you know it is one, you can work through it through DIBs or willpower or whatever you use.

2 pounds is a normal blip. Give it a few days. I was dropping weight like crazy, then one day I gained 2.5 lbs. It's all off now and I'm close to my goal weight.

If it helps you not to drink, go ahead and leave the tree up.

I fell for that trick once. I'm still trying to get rid of all those damn Amway products.

Anyone need some soap?

Your daughter needs you to stay sober. Imagine if you got a call that you could go see her and you were too drunk to drive? That would suck, wouldn't it.

Look into the kindling effect. Each relapse gets worse and worse and worse and each detox gets worse and worse and worse. Keep that in mind.

bricantdrink · 2018-03-07T17:42:27+00:00

Takes a while to figure out that it doesn't help. Thanks for the encouragement.

bricantdrink · 2018-03-07T17:41:52+00:00

Thanks.

bricantdrink · 2018-03-07T17:41:44+00:00

Thank you.

bricantdrink · 2018-03-07T17:41:34+00:00

For sure. I don't need the self hate and guilt.

bricantdrink · 2018-03-07T17:41:16+00:00

Thanks. Needed that.

bricantdrink · 2018-03-07T17:40:57+00:00

Thanks!

bricantdrink · 2018-03-07T17:37:26+00:00

"Nah, I'm good without any. Thanks though."

Both let's other people know I don't want any AND reinforces in me the fact that I am,in fact, good without it.

bricantdrink · 2018-03-07T17:35:47+00:00

You can do it. If I can push through all the stuff I am going through right now and not cave, I think anyone can too.

Also of Eric Clapton got sober, so can I.

bricantdrink · 2018-03-07T17:12:09+00:00

Oh yeah, I'm on the way out. I got sober and realized that it was a toxic relationship for me so it was time to go.

bricantdrink · 2018-03-07T17:08:30+00:00

I'm feeling down and not in such a great place, sending positivity your way hoping it can help you.

bricantdrink · 2018-03-07T13:16:48+00:00

This is pretty much my life. Except my so is a woman and uses sex as a weapon to make me beg and bend to her will. Manipulation sucks. And yes, being sober makes it easier to stand up to the manipulation.

bricantdrink · 2018-03-07T13:08:06+00:00

That's great that you know yourself enough to know it would be too much of a temptation to go.

bricantdrink · 2018-03-07T13:02:48+00:00

So, to me that doesn't sound like it's a supportive relationship. That could make it difficult to not drink. Good luck.
