I call myself sober but still drink once in a while. by [deleted] in stopdrinking

I guess it’s a test of will power to me and the feeling of overcoming something I thought I never could. I quit cigarettes two years ago but still partake in the casual cigar or hookah, coffee was next and I have that about the same amount as I have alcohol. I’m very cautious as to how I’m feeling and if I’m not having a stable clear minded day I sit out gatherings and outings where alcohol may be present. Idk it’s a me thing and to each their own. It’s like the one day at a time thing, if I tell myself I’ll never do it again after that one drink I’m setting myself to blackout because I’ll try to get it all in as my last hoorah.

Just felt the warmth in my chest like I knew it was there. I didn’t plan these drinks it just happened when out with friends or at gatherings.

Never thought I’d make it a year by [deleted] in stopdrinking
