first, do you feel ready?
i think i really do. i mean, i like drinking (sort of) but i'm sick of what it does to me, especially the next day, and it's nowhere near worth it.
and i think once i get used to not doing it, i won't miss it very much.
one important thing: we need to figure out what our substitute is going to be. you know, you need something to reach for, something to satisfy the oral fixation, when you would normally have a drink. i think it makes sense for it to be a beverage (even water may work) but it can be anything that is either good for you or harmless. last time i quit it was martinelli's sparkling cider. i drank almost a whole bottle a day.
i may do that again. or maybe water. other ideas? i can't do caffeine or i'll never sleep.
what about you, pc? how are you feeling? what can you do to help yourself be ready?
hugs,
crushed
