Be active or seltzer with lemon and lime for me. Giner ale is a good call, too.

Remember IF WE are consumed by thinking about ALCOHOL. WE HAVE A ALCOHOLIC PERSONALITY. /UNTRAINED MIND. STAY IN THE PROCESS AND YOU CAN CHANGE YOUR MINDSET AND CREATE A WHOLE NEW PATTERN TO FOLLOW. YOU CAN DO THIS :wink:

Early on I had to get to meetings. I couldn't tolerate being in my own skin, being alone or being stuck in my own head. The best way for me to get out of my head is to get to a meeting, and do what they did to maintain their sobriety. It wasn't easy, because I have a tendency of overcomplicating everything I do, but wow was it worth it!!

I'm on day 76. Walk around the block, clean the house, pray, meditate, take a shower, make a dope as dinner.

I try not to think about how much fun it is for ppl to sit down and drink. Sometimes Im jealous that they dont have my disease (allergy) to the drink or vice versa. I sometimes think that ANY time during the day someone is always having a drink, (time zones) but always remember 1 drink leads to losing family, job, money, huge debt. Dont think about cocktail hour, think about all day every 24 hours.

I personally go to a meeting during that time every day, my morning meeting is a way to start the day, but my evening meetings replaces my typical drinking session :call_me_hand:t4:
