I lost my job in early July, and decided that was a good time to get sober. Drinking was getting so bad I would blackout every night. I just started a new job on Monday, and it’s the weekend, all I can think about is getting black out drunk. Work has always been a major trigger for my substance abuse. I’ve been working for 12 years now and never worked a day sober (until the past 5 days) and it’s killing me inside. Anything any other recovering people have tips on to keep your mind off it?
