Today has been a hard day. Work has me stressed, I'm tired and really just want a few beers. What do you do on nights you just want a beer?

Pray!! If you have a God of your understanding! Pick up the phone and call a sober friend Go to a meeting!! You’ll never find more sober friends than at Alcoholics Anonymous They are 24/7 on zoom! If you need help with that I am happy to help navigate zoom with you. Better yet is in person, depending where you’re at with Covid. Meeting makers make it!! I started taking herbs. Valerian Root is so relaxing and makes me fall asleep instead of laying awake jonesing for a beer or three.

Do you believe that it would stop at a beer?

No it wouldn't have and I thought about that for along time.

That’s what you have to tell keep telling yourself. Play that tape forward. You’ll be alright. As bad as todays work day was, you got through it. There has got to be some good things going on in your life. Be grateful for them and don’t ruin it, because a bunch of beers would.:confused:
