Trying to stick with with the plan everyday, don't drink, don't smoke, get some exercise, eat right, go to a meeting. Not perfect, but alcohol free and getting better. I hope everyone is dong well.

| Thru the grace of God and the strength He's given me I now have 30 days sober. I will keep building my sober days, one day at a time. |

| courage and faith Conez--do you have a spiritual practice or community? Or a recovery support group? What worked for me was reconnecting to my spirituality and going to AA, even though I really didn't like AA at first. Ironically, I now love AA and have some terrific friends and mentors. As I was told, if you don't have a spiritual practice, find someone who does and borrow theirs. Even if you're not sure it's for you, just talking with someone who is sympathetic and spiritually connected is a huge help. Keep posting and let us know how you're doing-- Peace, Jana |

| 31 sober days today. I have been going thru some hard times here, emotional and otherwise, but did not/will not drink over it. I refuse to start back at square one. I will keep going, one day at a time. I cannot adequately express my gratitude for all the support I get here. THank you all!! ![]() |

| Today makes 32, it has been a while since I managed this long with out a drink. It was something of a struggle for a time yesterday, passing that 30 day mark starts the "I don't really have a problem" voice I guess. Anyway some food, exercise, a meeting and it was silenced. I hope everyone is having a good day. LC |

| Day 23 for me. Things are pretty tough. My girlfriend and I are probably going to end up moving out, not an official breakup. We've been together and living with each other for over 6 years. I think I'm finally facing the issues with a sense of clarity. It is very difficult, but I won't drink. ![]() |

| Congratulations, everyone! Lots of success to draw upon, regardless where in recovery one is. Thanks! Steam, careful. Recovery brings with it so much stuff. The "clarity" can be overwhelming. We are not used to it. We feel enregized and strong. Doesn't mean we are always sane. That said, I may be facing something similar. I don't like it, but have to face it. I am frankly amazed that such stress evokes no need to medicate. If anything, it is making me more grateful for my sobriety. Peace to all here... warren |
