Day 4 and strugglig a little. Came back late from my girlfriends faniky christmas party snd while doing dishes she found a water bottle tht was fulk if vodka on the counter i thought was empty. First real temptation. Now she is asleep and store opens in 40 min. But i dont want to go but at the same tine i feel a pull to go.
Tough to be easy on you in this instance....you either want to drink....or you can do what i do when Friday makes 10mths no alcohol for me.....I remember the disgust I was when I used to drink....and I got to AA meetings....be proud of your 4 days though its a struggle....and if your woman drinks....you should table discuss that you don't want any around you....but go to meetings and feel comfortable around sober people....it works man

I totally hear you. Temptation is real, especiallywhen you’re left alone with your thoughts. It’s okay to feel the struggle. It doesn’t make you wea, it makes you human.
Take a deep breath, and focus on why you’re here. You’ve made it through so much already, and this moment doesn’t define you. You’ve already proven to yourself that you can stand strong in the face of challenges
Call someone you trust, write it down, breathe through the urge, and remember that this moment will pass. The store will still be there, but your recovery, your peace, and your strength are worth so much more.
You’ve got this.
Keep going, one moment at a time.
