First encounter with alcohol in 24 days

I am 24 days sober! Also, it’s day 9 out of treatment. This weekend was my first encounter with the presence of alcohol. I went to my buddies house, as they said there wouldn’t be alcohol around. However, this wasn’t the case at all. I felt shocked, and uncomfortable. Thankfully, I was not triggered to drink whatsoever. It was a weird feeling. I got out of there at the perfect time (about 35 minutes in lol) I felt so much strength that the booze did not have power over me that night.

Ahhhhh, people, places & things.

Way to go, Kenneth! One drink is too much and a thousand is never enough :wink: Good for you to get out as soon as you needed to. That takes a lot of guts and listening to God. Kudos, bro!

Good job, close call. It might not always go so well. I've had to change a lot of my people/places/things because I'm not always so strong in my sobreity.
