Yesterday, I was 233 days sober.
I had a really stressful council meeting last night. I came home craving a Bourbon Manhattan in the worst way.
I took some melatonin. Played video games until it kicked in. And woke up today to Day 234.
It’s really hard.

Whoa! Thank you so much, y’all 
I did school drop off then went to the gym and am just checking back in now.
I’m grateful for and humbled by your prayers and encouragement.
As so many of you have said: one day — sometimes one hour, one minute — at a time.

Oh my word.
Waking up to see your support and encouragement is humbling and truly incredible. Thank you!
Getting sober during a global pandemic is no joke.
If you’re struggling with your relationship with alcohol, I hope this thread encourages you and gives you hope!
