    Reward system

    Goodevening/Morning/Afternoon to you all wherever you may be in this crazy world of ours,

    I am currently living in an extremely remote part of the world where the social life revolves around the one pub on the Island and I even work in the pub! I am surrounded by constant jeers of " you will crack soon " etc...What can I say, I am a glutton for punishment.

    As there are no AA meetings around to get my motivational 3,6 month chips etc I have decided that I need to have a set reward for myself every 3 months of sobriety, as a simple pat on the back is just not going to do it for me.
    I think we all probably need to learn to be nice to ourselves and not feel bad about splashing out a bit of cash on something special to keep us motivated. An amount that pales in comparison to that spent on booze!

    I guess I just hope that your are all being good to yourselves and reaping the benefits of your sobriety and remembering that you are worth it!

    My 3 months is coming up in 2wks and I am not giving up that massage for a beer!!!

      Waiting 6 MONTHS for a reward!!!

      I am on Day 16 and have already ordered a pair of gorgeous shoes with the money that I would have otherwise spent on wine in the last 2 weeks! I can see that I'm going to enjoy being AF!
      If alcohol made you happy I should be the happiest person alive! I'm not.

        LMAO Blue Sky!!!
        No I didnt actually wait 6 months for ANY reward, but that was a BIGGY!!
        I reward myself all the time really with smaller things. pampering and food type stuff...

          this is an excellent idea!!mmm what to reward myself with!!
          When you can look a thing in the eye,
          Acknowledge that it exists,
          Call it exactly what it is,
          And decide what role it will play in your life,
          Then my beloved,
          You have taken the first step toward your freedom.
