It is your birthday. Your friends and family are about to come together and give you the birthday party of your life. They promise that your party will be full of family, friends and games. However, your family often forgets how hard it was for you to kick your drinking and alcohol use. Today, many addicts feel that their lives are out of control. They often wonder how they are going to stay sober for life if they cannot control their own drinking. Controlling your drinking often means not being around alcohol at all.
If you are planning on throwing a birthday party, make sure to leave alcoholic beverages out. Most people don't realize that your guests can go a few hours without alcoholic beverages. It is important to understand that alcohol often makes your guests feel a little bit "out of it". Try having your guests drink sodas, fruit punches and other drinks that contain no alcohol. On your special day, you want to have very little temptation to drink. Even cases like rum cake can be a disaster for an ex alcoholic.
If you are throwing a birthday party, make sure that it's in a place where you don't feel uncomfortable. Don't allow your party to be thrown in a bar, dance hall or restaurant/bar atmosphere. It is important to have your birthday party in a sober free zone. House parties often work the best. Catering halls are another great place to have a party since you can control what is being served to your guests. If someone is throwing you the party, kindly ask them to keep liquor off the menu. Believe me, your friends would rather see you sober and living happy than to be living a life of getting high and doing drugs. It is important to write down what it means to be sober.
It is important to attend a weekly Alcoholics Anonymous meeting as well. This is important since a lot of addicts feel that their life is not where they want it to be. Allow others to know what makes you feel happy and sad. Addiction is often a hard battle to fight on your own. Many addicts say that you cannot overcome addiction alone. You need to have friends and family to back you up and to make you feel more at peace. When it comes to sobriety, you often feel like your life is moving along in good ways.
The brain is really weird in the sense that it continues to teach us new tricks in life. The brain is always trying to make us think of different ways to get attention for what we want. You learn in rehab that you are in charge of your own thoughts. You can stop a bad thought from coming into your mind that would cause you to want to do drugs or drink alcohol. It is important to let go and have a new life of sobriety. You can find support by visiting online chat rooms with people that suffer from addiction.
