If you still want to have a drink tomorrow, you can. It's just one day at a time, so all you have to do is make it until tomorrow. I really do sympathize, used to drink to lessen pain, as well. It took me seven years and three surgeries to stop the pain, so I know it's not easy. I would also have a serious talk with my doctor about pain management. But nothing is worth a drink for me now. I know where it's taken me before, so I have to keep that in mind, the consequences. And after all the work I've done, I just don't have it in me to start over again. Hang in there, you can do it, just for tonight. Sorry that I'm replying so late, have been out of state for the weekend, and I know you needed a reply tonight. Let us know how you're doing. I've been there, my friend...
