Thanks guys................I just want SOOOO badly for others to see how great their life can be without alcohol. Make that first week, everyone, and it gets easier. You feel better. You look better. And most importantly........there begins to be hope. You realize......I made it a week! I've never made it a week before! Optimism, and hope blooms and that is a powerful motivator. It is hard to get excited about the future when you are in "the trap". But man, once you are out?? The whole world opens up to you.
Stay strong.
