Not going to pretend its easy Goop, but its not as hard as I thought it would be either.
Not convinced I did things right, I just seemed to get through 2 weeks, then 30 days, then 90 days and before I knew it 6 months.
Taz is right though, watch the tablets, you could just swap addictions. I only used them for a couple of days.
You can make it using SR only I reckon.
My 2 tips for what they are worth,
1. Don't relapse, I really believe you make it harder for yourself every time you do. I've seen so many people do so and while it might seem the easy answer on that night / day, pow, suddenly your back where your started and the people around you are up at 90 days or whatever. It really doesn't seem that long since I stopped drinking but if you'd said that to me last easter it would have been an eternity.
2. Respect SR, by that I mean have people on here that you treat the same as you would face to face. There's folks on here that I would feel I had let down if I was to pick up again. It helps keep me going.
Thank you for the comments everyone. We can do this.
