Covid is everywhere. I stayed with someone who got it over christmas. Now my husband has it and is sick. Trying not to freak out. And yes, we are vaxxed and got boosters before Thanksgiving. I know that I will be ok but honestly I am really thinking about drinking right now.
I’m so sorry you are dealing with this stress. Remind yourself that alcohol will suppress your immune system, destroy your body’s natural defenses, and mess up the goals you’ve worked hard for. Stay on track and you’ll feel better faster. Sending you strength!

You know how that goes. A joyous time we can use it as a excuse a sad time we can use it as an excuse or a hectic time we can use it as an excuse. However we can also use it as motivation not to use/drink. Joyous times can be the gifts of sobriety. Hectic and sad we need to be the best person we can be so w can then reap the good consequences of doing the right thing! Hang in there.

I had a positive test today. I felt $hitty yesterday, but much better today. I felt worse with the cold I had earlier in the year. Don’t let the hysteria get to you. I have a much much greater chance of dying if I take that first drink.

I am sorry to hear about your husband’s falling ill. Vaxxed and boostered he should be feeling back to normal in no time. 
A line I repeat to myself often, is that a drink never made anything better, but it has made everything worse.
