Hi Fresh! Just the fact that you are on here is a great first step. I find the support that I get here is amazing! There is a comfort in knowing that you are not alone. For such a long time I thought I was the only one in the world going through this...but reading through the posts it is like I could've written them all myself! I am on day 2 but I am in such a different and positive place...perhaps it is the L-Glut finally kicking in.....who knows...but I do know that it was so nice to wake up this morning with no hangover and not having to worry about what I did the night before!!!!! Good luck with day 1.

Hey guys - I just wrote a thread about my constant day 1s and decided to redirect it to here because I didn't realize that there was this thread until afterwards.

I am on day 1 - again - the sad part is that tomorrow is going to be day 1 again too...

I was wondering how people feel about setting a quit date? I was wanting to start it next Monday...the weekend was a long one (holiday) and so Monday wasn't obviously my first day 1 and yesterday I drank...I don't know.
I was wondering how people felt about setting a date and preparing for it?

Hi Mya....you are on here so that means you are trying. Lord knows I have had my fair share of Day 1s...if you read different threads and posts you will find that you are NOT alone! I am only on day 4 AF but I am really hoping that this time around is a charm!!!!!! So far so good. Good luck to you and stick on here...it helps.

I agree with Destiniey Mya. Thinking about recovery is the first step in recovery. Even if you're not perfect all of the time you're working your way there. Keep checking your "tools" and making adjustments until you find the perfect tool box. :l

Day 1 again for the 5th time in 10 months. My husband and daughter decided to have a fight so I left the house and took a drive. Their arguments are a big trigger for me. Its almost 5pm that is also a big trigger so I am not cooking I am leaving the house again to do some shopping. Maybe I will go to a movie by myself. I need to make it through this day.

Do whatever you need to do. Don't feel badly for leaving the house, you are more important than their argument. A movie sounds like a great idea. It will get your mind off of booze.

Good morning...or I guess I should say afternoon MB! I have been on here wayyyy to long so far today! Ha! Congrats on getting through day 1. It is sooooooooo hard and all of us on here can relate. Never feel selfish for doing what you have to do to stay AF...there is no right way or wrong way to be AF...you have to do whats right for YOU! I am on day 12 and I have been sleping in the guest room since starting this journey....I just need that "me" time and when I first started my AF days I got the night sweats something terrible and I was just more comfortable sleeping by myself....I suppose my husband understands...he doesn't say much! Just keep thinking about how great you felt waking up this morning AF! Keep posting on here....the support here is awesome! Good luck on day 2...you can do it!
