Things I have learned during this time:
Completely surrender and admit defeat - stop thinking and believing that I can control the situation. I lost the battle with wine, I gave up and admitted that I was powerless, and because of that I can start to win. Slowly. Day after day, hour after hour, minute after minute.
One day at a time!
I no longer say that I’ll never drink again.
But I wake up every morning and tell myself - today I dont drink.
And I will think about tomorrow tomorrow.
Start by changing myself, because the world is not going to change to fit the “poor and unhappy old me.”
It's very simple: whatever is leading us down the road to suffering because of alcohol, we no longer want to take part in it.
