27 days - SoberRecovery : Alcoholism Drug Addiction Help and Information

keepcominback · 11-01-2009, 07:23 PM

Happy November, I am on day 27 of alcoholism recovery, attending AA, working AA program with sponsor. I have rejoined after being away from sober recovery, so just saying hello...had a rough day, but I think that making it through rough times without the old solution is what is difficult, yet progress is getting sober, staying sober, so the staying sober even though feelings are not good is progress. Doing whatever it takes instead of drinking, old solution is what has been working for me, so far, not sure about desire to drink and why that is so on my mind only the last few days, but hopefully will pass. I rented a movie, maybe taking my mind somewhere other than my thoughts will be a good move! Well, hope to give as well as receive here, and thanks for the support.

Hi,

It sounds like you're doing great!

Congratulations on 27 days of sobriety. That's really good.

And, yeah, finding new ways to deal with life's ups and downs, is the key to staying sober. And, each time we get through something, it gets easier.
