Ha!! Got your attention didn’t I? I’m feeling yucky. Like irritable and overwhelmed. Staying sober is so much work. But it’s so worth it. Especially when I’m feeling like I am today. I have the tools to pause and work on things rather than drink about it and make things worse. For this I’m feeling grateful. Who said sobriety was perfect. It’s progress not perfection. I’m gonna keep working on it. One day at a time. At least I didn’t pick up a drink. Hoot hoot.

Well at least this kind of work doesn't pay with hangovers 
Your right, sobriety isn't perfection. It's a constant fight but things like this make it worth it. Congrats

Sounds to me like you've got it together! Yeah, life doesn't simply get easier because we put the cap on the bottle. We just get better at handling life one day at a time without picking up a drink. hooah!

We're all imperfect persons to be sure. Recently I've adopted the 'easyway' to stop drinking (Alan Carr's quit drinking without willpower book helped a ton!). Now that I know there will be no benefit from drinking alcohol Ino longer fight myself when deciding what to drink.

I found that drinking was way harder work for me than not! Worried about when I’d be able to sneak my next drink, where I was going to get the $ for it, when I ran out, hiding it, lying about it,….. it was dam hard work!!!…. Now I have nothing to stress about!!… extremely happier!!!
