I actually went to work today hydrated, well rested and clear headed. Well that certainly is a nice change for a Monday! No cravings at all this last weekend which is amazing. We went out to dinner Saturday and normally I would be thinking about how terrible it would be without a drink, but we had been there previously when I had been absing so I had that connection to being there without drinking. Having that prior experience sure helps. I think you just need to get through everything once without alcohol and then it doesn't seem as scary.
I am a 51 year old wife, teacher and mother of 2. I have a 21 year old son and a 25 year old daughter. New intro...I am sober and love it! It isn't always easy but it is always worth it! Old intro...I am fighting this damn drug called alcohol. I have been a weekend binge drinker for 30 years. I binge 2-3 times a month on a Friday or Saturday, but alcohol kicks my butt every single day of my life. I am sick of it!
