Great day for an iced tea and to be grateful that you’ll see the sun. To play with the kids. To read the 12&12. To hit a random meeting that you’ve never been to.

Or to eat tacos. I’m going to go eat tacos.

Hang in there kaylin.
The urge comes and goes just let it pass. Alcohol is poison and in the long run you are going to feel mentally and physically better without it :ok_hand:t4:

You are going to be okay. Love yourself and be good to you today.

You’re already doing good by putting this post out there. Tell your thoughts to shut up and do other things to help get out of your head. Some things that work are go to a meeting, call another alcoholic, pray, ask your higher power to relieve you of your obsession to drink and read a chapter in the big book. Take it minute by minute if you have to just for today!!!

The urge huh...well think about this before u pick up. I said "just one hit" once upon a time. Had the world at my finger tips. A high paying job. A gorgeous girl. An amazing apartment in NYC. That one hit ended all of it that second. I lost it ALL. I ended up smoking crack in the project stairwells and sleeping on park benches. ..... Now think long and hard about the consequences
