home and settled in eating lettuce wraps and tea. Crazy busy day, as usual. I spent alot of time on YouTube last night watching videos about alcoholics and gots lots of inspiration. I had fleeting thoughts of an ice cold beer around five, but that's all they were. This weekend will be a bit of a test, but nothing major. I am waiting for my energy to come back, but the half AB when I get home has stopped the crippling headaches. I feel good and stilll strong.

MB,

Those strong urges will be strong for awhile and they will come and go, sometimes catching you off guard. As Onie said, if you can view them as just thoughts that do not have any control of you, that is super helpful. Those powerful urges/thoughts get weaker and weaker over time, I assure you.

Is there anything that you can do (hobby, exercise, etc) or start doing to keep you busy? I found this tremendously helpful. Just a thought.

Mama Bear, So glad to hear you are feeling better and staying strong!!! I have got some kids coming home at the W/E from O/S. No doubt there will be booze around to celebrate the occassion! As if W/E aren,t hard enough, still, can,t wait to see them. 2 nights ago I nearly gave into al,but some how got through it. Last night was OK! I thought how nice it would be to have a drink and relax. Then I thought about all the horrible times I have had with al! I no longer have hangovers,have a clear mind,can recall what I done last night, go to bed and read and remember where I am up to in the book! AL really does nothing for you! Catch u soon...................

Icannot tell you how much your personal support means to me. I feel like I have a guardian angel.

Mama Bear, When I first quit drinking, there were alot of folks on this forum who had significant AF time who got me through. Their advice and my hope and faith to some day feel as good as they did is what got me through.
