1 Year Today
I am happy to report that I have made it one year. It seemed impossible one year ago. Life is so much better. The first 90 days or so were the hardest but after that I began to regain my wife's trust and my true friends began to accept that I no longer drink. Now that it has been a year I am not sure when I had time to drink so much. Every morning is also a blessing waking up with no hangover.
If it helps anyone I have participated in a Step Study with Celebrate Recovery (we meet once per week) and the first 90 days I met with an addiction therapist weekly and now meet every six to eight weeks. I also made an effort to attend church which I have started to enjoy.
Even though I only post every one in a while I also read SR almost every day and it has been great way to keep me motivated and on track. Good Luck to everyone- just stick with it!
