Good to see this thread is relatively active. Looks like nymets86 and ReadyOrNot123 are availing themselves of the site more than other Feb2015 people.
I'm just stopping in to say hi and share a bit of my experiences lately.
Still haven't had a drink since Jan 26 2015.
Lately have been pretty depressed. Still have my job and still living with parents and building a business so I can work for myself and buy my own house.
Am very lonely. I don't have any friends outside work and I keep to myself. I'm thinking I'm too lazy to have friends because I just want the companionship part of it but on my terms. So selfish as well. And this blocks me trying to make friends.
Why would I want to inflict myself on someone else?
Anyway, my dog is a source of comfort and he doesn't ask questions and is a nice huggable creature. So I have that going for me.
With regard to drinking - It's gotten to the point now where when I'm feeling down and contemplate drinking I remember how bad it felt and that it just doesn't help. So that "solution" to my poor mood isn't there any more.
I hate this one foot after another crap. Where is the happiness? Grrr.
