Smile 90 days

90 Days today, woo hoo!!
Never thought I'd get here but thanx to all the great folks here on SR I made my first big mile stone.
I first saw the talk of 90 days on SR so decideed that was my aim, it was tough esp come the weekends, but I came on here mostly read but few posts and the courage I got from others helped me through the urges.
AA mottos, AVRT, urge surfing, it all helped and I am so greatful.
Next biggie is the year for me but with the grace of God and SR hopefully we all get there.
My life has started to become all I ever dreamed of, my sleep has never been better, my mood is x10 better, family life great, everything just seems so good, the blinkers have come of so to say.
For all new comers in the early days or weeks, hang in there, it does get a bit easier and more manageable, make 90 a aim and I pray you get there and beyond and feel as good as I do today.
For all the long termers and site moderators - you's will have a special place in heaven for all the time, effort and wise words and thoughts you put into this palce.
Happy sober weekend all,
Big love
Sean

So happy for you seanie, a fellow paddy and all! Seriously though I hope you realise what you have achieved. It's kind of unimaginable for me at the moment (only on Day 12 here) but you are proof it can be done. Keep posting, don't wait for a year to update us how you're doing!

Thanx Billy and PLC.
Newatthis, stick with it and read plenty on here, I also found writing down my thoughts also helped this time around, 34? Ur age? We have a lot in common as I 35 so I'd say we more or less run the same mill wit the drink, good luck
