Hello everyone,

I'm fairly new to this forum. I came across this thread and realized I'm in the same class as you all. My last drink was in late December. I am now 26 days sober. This is just my "hello" to everyone. I've been reading over your posts, and they have all been helpful to me. Thank you for that.

I'm in Northern Virginia myself, so I'll be hit with this blizzard. I love snow, and I'm a teacher (I think teachers enjoy snow days more than students do!). But this is definitely a trigger for me. This circumstance would usually call for a long day drinking and watching Netflix, followed by another day, and another, until I hate my life, am anxious as hell, and so on. You know how it goes. I do have a few bottles of liquor left over in my apartment. I think this is a good opportunity for me to throw them away. I don't know why I even kept them. Maybe my addiction was trying to keep them around.

Have a great and sober day, everyone. Thanks for letting me share in this group.



- Mike
