Im hoping if i get that far i will just look at alcohol and be like no way, and hopefully my body and mind will easily look the other way. Anyways, big 50 up next for you in a few days!
Day 50 today! I haven't really had too many urges to drink this time around (I've been trying on and off for years), aside from a few urges to escape completely from from my emotions. I have had craving to smoke pot, which I'm equally addicted to, but haven't acted on them. I know it seems like a really long way off, but it goes pretty fast. This is almost the farthest I've ever gotten, 60 days was my best. I feel pretty good, but I know that my mind and body still have a lot of healing to do. Thanks and congrats to you for making a start. Keep it on the real, bro. Peace.

Keep on keeping on DK!!!!

Things have been brushing off my back a lot easier lately. It's about ******* time...
Time used to burn me up, it went way to fast when I was plastered and way to slow when I was trying to stay sober! I finally learned that time takes time!!!!!

Something feels different. Maybe it's just being off of the Paxil that made my first 30 days so unpleasant this time, and then getting back on Prozac, which has helped me in the past with no side effects whatsoever. Anyway, it doesn't matter so much why, but I sure do feel better!

Way to go!

I know what you mean. Last time I got sober, I was saving so much money when I would go out I would spoil myself and just have bigger meals.

Thanks, ExNavy. I'm really anxious to get past 60 days, cuz that's as far as I've ever gotten. Uncharted territory...

It's just around the corner, Paul! I can't think of a better way to bring in the New Year than with a personal best.

Hang tight through the holidays, and screw the moderation in other areas for now.

Hugs to you,

Donna
