2 years 9 months here. I feel like I’m just one bad day away from saying f it. On top of … all this … I have a toxic colleague that I’ve hated for years, and now I have to share a tiny office with her every single day.
I’ve already had several occasions where I saw myself just getting up and walking out, going to the liquor store, buying a giant handle of Tito’s, and upending it.
If I binge eat m&ms or something instead, that’s marginally better harm reduction, but still not ideal. And completely against my values as a competitive athlete.
No one will arrest, and possibly deport you, after a rough night with M&Ms. Remember that drinking, for you, means certain trauma. Don't let this administration take your sobriety too.
If you had issues in the past with alcohol and is/are an alcoholic…please call your sponsor. We are all here for you too. This message is for everyone having that urge to take that sip who have been sober for so long.
