Hi Everyone - SoberRecovery : Alcoholism Drug Addiction Help and Information

rambydave · 10-28-2012, 08:18 AM

I've been trying to quit for over 10 years now. Got busted with ovi 2 days after my 35th birthday. Anyway, still have my job (Thank God). Been sober now for only 4 days. Don't feel too bad, but I do feel like I can't hang out with any of my friends, since the only thing we had in common was drinking anyway. I'm starting a new road in life, and I know it's going to be better than my last 30 years.

Sober for 30 days!! Wasn't so bad. Of course this isn't my first time quitting. I see nothing good about alcohol for me. Don't even crave it anymore. I've even quit smoking cigarettes. Been on the patch for 3 weeks now. Life is good being sober. I'm saving over $300/month not smoking and drinking!!
