..I was at the 2 week point and I had a drunk dream..woke up...thought I had drank...was SO ****ING GRATEFUL I did not drink
I wake up sometimes with a headache and/or upset stomach and my brain immediately goes to thinking I have a slight hangover (which is usually about all I got since I was good at controlling the amount I drank) and I get that same good feeling when I realize it is just from sleeping too little (which happens a lot; my "center" seems to be slightly hypomanic these days) or poorly timed medicine/eating from the night before. So I stop mentally flipping through the cures that never really worked anyway, pop up and get after it...

I am at the 25 day mark. I haven't had a strong urge since week 1. I usually either slip right away (in the first few days it is easy to tell myself that was just a false start) or make it months before I rationalize that I can handle making an exception.
