Thank you all for the welcome! Its funny to see posts directed at me after years of reading the welcomes of others. I have always been amazed at the amount of support to be had here.
So far I've had a fantastic day 2. The emotion I've been surrounded with today is relief. It is so exhausting obsessing, planning for, and anticipating the next drink. I truly feel now that that is no longer an option for me and all of a sudden theres just this clear spot in my mind where only 2 days ago was an endless whisper.
I do know that at some point down the road it won't be so easy. I also know its my job to get myself into a position to ensure I will remain on the right path when that time comes. But for tonight I am at peace and I have a sober morning to look forward to tomorrow!
Again, thank you all so much, I'm very glad to meet you all!
