Now and then I like to search my old posts back to my very first one. It's amazing to think that that effed up guy was me! I think that lots of folks with some good sober time will tell that no matter how bad you are, you can get better. No one is a lost cause and it's never too late to improve your situation so long as you're on the green side of the lawn.

Thanks to all my SR peeps! Especially in the beginning you folks picked up me and carried me when I couldn't take another step alone. I'll never forget that. Hopefully I can pay that forward to folks just starting this journey towards a sober life.

I've been pretty busy with work as of late so I haven't been here as much as normal, but I do try to log in quick every day. I appreciate you guys! And remember sobriety isn't always easy but it's always worth it.
Huge congrats on your 6th sober anniversary! That's what I'm feeling now....lnow....like a lost cause...everyone I love hates me...cant trust me...and I'm a horrible person. Day 3 for me....i know I can do this! My weakness is the weekends and social gatherings...but it's all out there now for me. Everyone I love knows...so no hiding it now. Only option is to get better! Blessings to you and your sobriety!
