When you wake up/ come to in the early hours of the morning realising you have only about a glass of booze left, and trying to make it last until 9. a.m when you are first at the till of the liquor dept at the supermarket with the next 2 days supplies, and staff are still opening up.
'I am part of all that I have met, yet all experience is an arch wherethro', gleams that untravelled world whose margins fade, forever and forever when I move'

You can do this Pauly, set your sights for 4 months, then beyond!Quitting and staying quit isn't easy, its learning a whole new way of thinking. It's accepting a new way of life, and not just accepting it, embracing it...
Worry about tomorrow, tomorrow. Just get through today. Tomorrow will look after itself when it becomes today, because today is all we have to think about.
Friendship is not about how many friends you have or who you've known the longest. It's about who walked into your life, said "I'm here for you", and proved it.

Sorry Pauly, I thought you were close to 5 months, but you mentioned 3 in your post.Quitting and staying quit isn't easy, its learning a whole new way of thinking. It's accepting a new way of life, and not just accepting it, embracing it...

When you drink too much and while going to the bathroom, puke all over yourself. You clean up the shirt but leave it to mom to discover it weeks later. Thank god the stain came out, I loved that shirt. I think I posted that story before but could not remember so decided to do it in case I didn't.
You know your bad, when you can outdrink the karoke host and only been drinking for short time (2 years for me)
Hence why I knew I had to quit when I did. Its bad when you can outdrink more experienced drinkers.Last edited by DriftyAlison0; December 23, 2016, 11:30 PM.I quit drinking on March 8, 2020. Taking it One Day At A Time and no more taking my quit for granted.
Also doing it for me. I got to stay sober for me.
Just consecrate on today and do what you can to remain sober for today and worry about staying sober tomorrow, tomorrow.
