I’m the same way, it’s the evening cool down that is my biggest trigger. I now know that drinking at night actually makes me sleep worse and feel worse, it’s not the stress reliever I always thought it was. It’s also not a reward for a day well done anymore. Getting out of that mindset does take a little bit. I believe in you, you can do this!
Yesterday went so well, totally in the flow! Day 14 for me, looking forward to seeing what comes along today. Not drinking poisonous alcohol today, I’m in!
I’m with you! No poisonous alcohol for me today on day 13!
Hello Tuesday. Appointments, work stuff, all of the boring adult things. I slept like a log. This is day 12 for me, nothing too exciting…but still better than hangovers and anxiety! No alcohol for me today, let’s go!
Happy Monday! I have to deal with some highly annoying coworkers all week and a lot of distraction. I’ll find time to isolate and reset as needed. This kind of thing drains me and sets me up for drinks in the evening to dull out. Strangely excited to figure out some new coping skills that don’t involve alcohol or numbing out. No drinking for me today, no matter how overstimulated I get (any advice or tricks that you have are greatly appreciated).
Cool and windy day here. Trying out a recipe for shrimp and grits today. Cooking is a definite trigger to drink wine, I haven’t found a good replacement for that yet. I’ll stick with NA beers for now. Maybe the idea that my digestion goes so much better without the wine will help, along with knowing that I can fully taste my creation without the cloud of alcohol. Day 10 for me, I’ll not drink alcohol today!
