I happen to be the first one passing by, so I will attempt an answer even if I am unqualified.

Rough days will happen and it is natural to want a pick me up after one such days. What you need is a different type of comfort. So, thinking ahead, start visualizing what type of comfort would help you in the long run.

Drinking one evening is overall bad for you - for whichever reason you decided to stop drinking, they are still all valid even after a rough day. So hold those thoughts in your head.

On the other hand, explore what would help you destress. A warn bath/shower? A silly comedy show? Reading a book and disconnecting from reality? Crafting anything? Cooking something? Doing yoga? Eating chocolate?

Focus on: what would make you feel good tomorrow that is manageable today?

Once you have your solution, “rehearse”, think about it, remind yourself over and over that that’s what you do to chill. Look forward to it over the day. Make it a habit you can be proud of, such that you can then say “yesterday was a rough day, but that warm bath really settled the score and today I feel better for it”
