thank you hope ,
still a little congested, feels like it will never end. I had a few drinks yesterday, probably should not have driven home. not going to beat myself up about it. i don't want to drink, just so tired of being consumed by the constant struggle. tired of counting the days.
i went to the gym yesterday, that always makes me feel better. working this afternoon.

I had 4 shots yesterday with some co workers, it felt great, i didn't over drink, and i felt normal like everyone else, i don't want to drink everyday, but i just can't take the pressure. so today is day 1, and maybe i am not thinking clearly when i say i feel normal when drinking. i think i am a little lost, but i feel good. I don't want to use alcohol to cope, i really don't want to drink at all. i don't know why i am so consumed by this.
I went to the gym yesterday, first day in almost a week as i wasn't feeling well. going to go again tomorrow.

i love all of you, thank you for being here.
the last few days have been good, other than having sinus congestion and feeling terrible. I haven't been to the gym in a week, i really miss it, just have had no energy. hoping to go tomorrow. day 6 without a drink, i am trying not to focus on that number, trying not to put so much pressure on myself.

today was good, until a few hours ago. I don't know why, I get depressed , i start feeling negative emotions and getting negative thoughts. I want to drink, but not because i want alcohol, i think it's because i want to hurt myself. it is going to be a hard night
