Thank you stranger, your message comes at the right time. Because during the day I really don’t care for alcohol nor have any urges for it. My demons comes after I finish house chores and put my kids to sleep. Thank you for the motivation.
I'm the same way, it's the evening cool down that is my biggest trigger. I now know that drinking at night actually makes me sleep worse and feel worse, it's not the stress reliever I always thought it was. It's also not a reward for a day well done anymore. Getting out of that mindset does take a little bit. I believe in you, you can do this!
