Day 23 away from Booze

Man this is a record for me!!! I'm not having any problems with cravings and have been very disciplined with organizing my daily activities. I'm finding I can be much more focused and achieve much more than I could whilst drinking. Drinking seems to shed you of your "self worth" and makes so much of life look unappealing. I made a list of the negative aspects of drinking that applied to me and everytime I look over it it keeps me determined to stay sober. These were the feelings I had whilst drinking:

• Stress
• Depression
• Insecurity
• Fear
• Anger
• Laziness
• Procrastination
• Inactivity
• Lack of motivation
• Jealousy...

I find I feel much happier now, find I'm smiling much of the time and everyone around me seems happy and a pleasure to be with. My relationship has improved, a while ago we had just drifted off to do our own activities, but now we share more, communicate more and are enjoying intimacy. It's fantastic!!!
