Hello everyone,

Thank you for your support. 2 weeks ober and counting.

Chaz, welcome to the forums, you will find much support here, keep posting and share your story.

I am learning to deal with situations - things that go wrong without turning to the drink and succumbing to the beast. It is liberating to solve problems with a clear head and I find that solutions come easily because I am not giving up as soon as something goes wrong.
I also have a peace of mind knowing that I am keeping my vow. One day at a time and I am taking the bad with the good. Sometimes it's hard, but I find that when I write in my journal, write on here or attend an AA meeting, my self esteem gains a boost and I remember that I am doing the best thing that I've ever done. It makes me feel good about myself.
I feel stronger now than I did two weeks ago and my strength is growing each day. I feel more connected to myself in a way I've never experienced and I'm beginning to accept and like my own nature and personality. It fills me with more determination to keep my vow.

Thank you all for your support,
Jack
