I am ending day 5

I have made it through day 5. I feel great. I have also made it through my second day camping and havent drank, which is always a big drinking thing for me. everyone is sitting around the fire drinking and I decided to take a walk and catch up on some stuff online. Hope everyone is having a great 4th.

That is fantastic!!!

I'm ending my Day 6... can't believe I made it to 7.

Have you found that: #1 It's a little easier each day AND
#2 You feel all sorts of different (and good emotions?)

I have been numbing my feelings for years and did not realize it.

Congratulations on your first sober camping trip in awhile, I bet! That would be one of those moments that make you stronger. Thanks for sharing and again, congratulations!!!!
