Alcoholism is the continued consumption of alcoholic beverages, even when it is negatively affecting your health, work, relationships and life.

It's ok, my brain is trying to talk me into a buzz since I feel better. I'm not falling for it today!

I know the feeling, sly! Only three days and already the voice is trying to seduce me again. Not falling for it, evil demon. BE GONE!!!
Be strong. Seven weeks is quite an accomplishment. Just about made it that far myself at the beginning of the year, then fell off. Don't listen to the voice!!! Keep fighting!!!

Good job on 7 weeks, and say "no" to your brain. You've worked hard to get this far......do t throw it out for one stupid buzz. It's pretty much guaranteed that it won't be as fun as you think it will be...... Not worth it!

Yep think beyond the craving. Is it really worth it? Congrats on the 7 weeks! Remember 24 hours at a time

Every morning I would awake and promise myself, and everyone who would listen, that I won't drink today! That made it easier because I only had to worry about that day. That...I could handle! That's why we say, "One day at a time!"

Keep on keeping on, you're doing great!

God Bless!

I'very been on and off the wagon for 7 years now. This time around, I am learning to recognize my triggers and get them stopped before I even start day dreaming about the EVIL DEMON! The hardest thing for me to understand when I started my journey was ONE DAY AT A TIME. It just couldn't wrap my head around that, it has taken alot of ass kickings to understand that. Sly

    check out that smoke ring. It tasted really good. I smothered it with Maulls BBQ sauce which is Local to St. Louis and one of the best I ever had.....

     I was recently separated from my wife of 33 years and it's complicated. Anyway I rented a room about 15 minutes away and I see my kids about once a week. I see the people who own the house I live in once in a while but other than that I stay in my room where I do my cooking, wash dishes in the shower, read, color, and sleep. I get out at least once a day. I grocery shop and I attend 2 meetings...
