When I was in a 28 day rehab, my husband who
was a non drinker removed all the alcohol from
the house so when I returned there then there
wouldnt be any temptation there waiting for me.

That was extremely important in my early recovery.

That was one change in my life I had to stick to if
I was to accommulate any kind of lengthy sobriety.

Why put off tomorrow what you can begin today?

We are all faced with that fear of the unknown but,,,,
you dont have to be alone in ur recovery. SR is here
if you chose to use it to help yourself from picking
up a drink.

If you stay here and read u will find others that have
depended on this forum to help them in more ways
that one.

I use SR as a continueing tool in my own 20 yrs sobriety
because in order to stay sober one more day, i have a purpose
in life today. That purpose is to help others that r still
suffering with addiction by sharing my own experiences,
strengths and hopes of what my life was like before, during
and after my drinking.

My last drink was 8-11-90 and everyday since then I have
lived a day at a time giving back the knowledge of how to
stay sober that was passed on to me to others.

You can too.
