I’m still at work, but going home soon. I have no desire to drink. I usually couldn’t wait to get home and crack open the booze after working this late; now I’m just looking forward to a quiet evening in (when I eventually get home…).

This will become the norm… alcohol will no longer be a ‘crutch’ or ‘solace’ for you; your life will be fuller, more peaceful, less stressful without it. So pleased for you x
Hi Annie, like you, this evening has been the first when I actually haven’t had any desire to drink. I am beginning to realise that life is OK without wine every night. I find that I get so much more done and don’t get nearly so irritable with my daughter or life in general. I also don’t dread the phone going and having to talk to a friend or family member struggling not to slur or forget what I’m saying. You sound as though this time is better for you. Keep enjoying your quiet evenings and appreciating the positives that come with not drinking – you’re doing so well xx
