We’re starting all over again tomorrow, after getting a new job and working out regularly but still finding excuses to drink every night… I am ready to try this for real and get rid of the blurry memories and 24/7 drunk weekends. So tomorrow, I wipe the slate clean and try my frickin best not to fall off the wagon again and be the best version of me without having a drop of liquor in my body

I guarantee you we all mess up. Trust me, I have probably close to 100 times. Drinking buddies and those that always invite you to bars need to know that you’re trying to stay sober and if they have a problem with it then they aren’t a true friend. Stay strong and just keep pushing. Just remember, you’ll never regret not drinking when given the choice.

What's your plan for success? How is it different from your last plan?

The plan is to focus on happy I am right now and remember how unhappy I was 5 months ago and how many good things in my life have changed. I also started naltrexone yesterday so that is a big part of the plan but not the golden bullet. I also want to regain the trust of my family and I don’t want to keep sneaking around anymore bc lord that’s exhausting
Thank you!! Those are some awesome points. I know once I get through the first month I’ll feel completely different and in a great way, just gotta keep it pushing
Do you have a sober support network, some people that will hold you accountable, and not allow you to "sneak around"?
That’s awesome AK, one day at a time if we focus on today. Tomorrow will work itself out.
