Struggling tonight

I am struggling tonight without a drink. My tracker shows 0 days but I was ok last night. Went through day fine, usually have no problem with this, but fell asleep late afternoon and wished I had a drink, I am not in any danger because hubby has gone on a night out and taken credit cards/money. 6.40pm in Britain.

G'day :)  Glad to hear you made it through.  I'm about to go to my first AA meeting in 10 minutes.  It's Friday night here.  I had another powerfully intense day at school and am longing for that red wine on my kitchen bench.
I agree about the cups of tea.  It's a good way to reward yourself.  So, I'll be getting gallons of prizes tonight.
Take Care.

I think it would be a good idea to get rid of the wine in the house, it would be like giving up smoking with a pack of ciggies in front of you, never mind what anyone else thinks, you must put yourself first, I now have a lovely bunch of non-drinking friends whom know of my problems.

Stopping by to see how your feeling today? Did you manage to find a women's AA meeting in your area? It would be a good idea to go to a meeting and get yourself a sponsor. They will help you throughout your recovery, and can be called at any time if you are struggling and need to talk. They have been where we are, and have many years clean time.
Well done for not drinking last night!
