It is almost 5 o'clock and my sister invited me over for a drink. I have been hiding my true drinking for a long time so no one including her has any idea how bad it really is. I have bren very careful to cover it up. I want to quit on my own and I don't want anyone to know... that's why I joined this group. I am starting to freak out a little.

Day one and entering danger zone
joshongeva - Hope you found the strength to not give in! I was just invited out with my sister in law for drinks and I said no. I went home and put on my pj's and got a cup of tea. For a few seconds there though it was touch and go. I am happy that I was strong enough to say no. I have used many excuses not to let people know that I am trying to quit. I'm on medication where I can't have alcohol, I am on a special diet, I am doing a cleansing routine... I have never been willing to just say "I don't drink". I just can't handle all the questions and feel like I am being judged. I travel a lot for work and there is always heavy drinking at dinner, etc. I have to leave on a trip Monday and am a little freaked out myself, but just taking it one moment at a time. You can do it - good luck!Make it a great day!:heart: -
Day one and entering danger zone
I just texted my sis and told her I just woke up from a nap and did not feel like going out. Then I took 4 Valerian pills. God it is going to be a long night.Comment

Good for you, do whatever you have to do to not put yourself in any danger zones early on.
Every challenge you conquer is another day sober and stronger.
