Briar,

You're doing great. I couldn't stop one day before sobriety sucked less than drinking. It sounds like you got to that point as well. Sobriety so far has been difficult and honestly not much reward other than feeling more in control of my life and no hangovers. Okay, now that I read what I just typed I realize that sobriety is very rewarding! We have to keep the positives with us every day. I simply could not survive one more hangover so I'm thankful I don't have to anymore! It gets better and better as the weeks go by. At three months you feel like an entirely new better version of yourself.

I'm not one of the people who twirls around the room because sobriety rocks. I wish I had the energy to do that! I am the type who quietly appreciates it. Everything is better now though. Everything. It's really hard to see in the first few days and weeks so just please take our word for it!
