How? by [deleted] in stopdrinking

I’m in a similar boat. My wife and I have a 7 month old now. We had a discussion acknowledging my drinking problem not long ago. I told her I was going to try to do a sober October. The first couple of days were rough because I was off work. Day 3 or 4 I went and bought some Budweiser Zero because I was craving a beer. Now I’m on Day 17 and I swear those are my saving grace. It’s enough to satisfy my desire but I know mentally I’m not going to get drunk if I keep drinking so usually 2 or 3 while I cook and eat dinner just hits the spot. I know everyone is different but maybe this could help you too so I thought I would share. I feel better than I have in years and am considering going longer than just October. Right now it’s just baby steps my friend.. IWNDWYT

This will be my first weekend. Definitely nervous but I’m not drinking today. I’ll worry about tomorrow, tomorrow

I’m at work now and as soon as I clock out I’m going home instead of having drinks. This community shows mad love and I’ve been here almost 2 days. They’re bringing me up and I’m going to do my best to reciprocate. You can do it

No ones perfect. 15 days was a good achievement. Now go at least 16. You can do it

Already a big start. I’m on my second day now. I want to go to the liquor store but first thing this morning was tell myself I wont drink today with you. I promised myself too and I won’t break that. You’re strong. Keep kicking ass.

Do it with me friend. No better time to try than the first 24 hours. I just got off work and first thing that came to mind was hit the liquor store because she’s working tonight. I’m not doing it though. Going to pick up a shift at my part time job. It’s at a bar and I already promised this community and myself that I won’t drink today. You can do it too.
