Temptation

Even after 16 years away from it all I stumble upon a certain type of bad day that gets me thinking.  I get into a mood where for just a fraction of a second I think about throwing it all away for a drink.  Actually not a drink, but a DRUNK!!  Before anymore time elapses I shout out loud "what the hell am I thinking???"

Coping skills are crucial if any of us are going to enjoy long term sobriety.  Treatment got me away from the drink and coping skills keep me away.
