Thanks spicedt84, I don't know about you, but it is often the case with me that when I go through a bad patch in sobriety it is a definite sign that something fantastic is just about to happen. This has been my experience without fail and it is gotten to the stage that every time one of these bad patches occur, I wonder what great thing is on its way to me. Good luck to you.

One of my favorites is knowing I can go anywhere at anytime and know I can't get busted for a DUI! No more panicing when seeing a cop car.

2. No more needing to tell lies to cover for an addiction.

3. No more waking up and thinking; "what have I done?"

13. Looking physically better.

14 Regaining people's trust.

33. Not making your kids' life hell.

34. Being a good example
a few of my favorite reasons. Thanks for the thread.

I think there is as many ways as there is people, but most of these ways share common themes.
