Alcohol Free October

Ginger really dig in and let that wired brain know you are rerouting and you have the new schematic and it says I am free and I am the boss you are just the urge - just an unproductive static noisy thought. I can hear you but you keep reading off the old blueprint, your FIRED. You nearly electricuted me again!

Post it................squash it like, dare I say a pumpkin.

Corgipups, you are an inspiration. You're now starting your fifth month. You've been by my side for much of that time -- thank you!

Rebirth -- do whatever it takes to get through the evening AF. Spend hours on MWO. Go for a walk (bring id but no money!), take a hot bath, go to a movie. Whatever is needed to get through any urges. You can do this.

Dryer, you, too, sound great

Stay focused everyone.

After a few days away from MWO, I'm back... Day 5 of October and luckily I'm still sober. Today marks day 58 AF for me. Two days away from my 60 day goal, yaaaayyyy!

Definitely been having those seductive thoughts, were my addiction lies to me about how harmless and fun it'd be for me to have "a few". I believe it for a few minutes, but luckily continue returning here to MWO for a reality check and remember how depressed and hopeless it feels to drink as an alcoholic.

Alternately, I'm trying to recognize consciously what's been happening lately-- I've been laughing and genuinely having fun lately, instead of that "sober and bored" feeling in which I've spent so many days now. I'm so glad to know that the feeling of enjoying life and being engaged in it does in fact return, albeit slowly, with sober time.

Best to all!

Yes I had more than 1 visit from our old friend today. He was a little forceful, but he did not stick around long although he came back. I got online read and posted, listened to some positive thinking tapes and chose to use my new beliefs to see those rationalizations as what they are BIG EFIN LIES.
