90 days...
Well i'm done with my 90 and 90. It was actually probably closer to 90 and 80 but hey I stayed sober. Went to meeting and my sponsor was chairing, so he got to give me my chip. About day 40 I told myself I had to hold out till 90. Now that its here well I would be lying if I said I didn't miss the temporary release of dark beer and blunts. But overall i'm feeling so much better... less confused less anxiety. My depression got worse when I stopped but now its a lot better. Most days I don't want to drink at all. I have thoughts about it sure... but they are not compulsions... Issues that felt like millstones now are just minor blips on the radar. Its amazing. Anyway just though i'd share a little experience strength and hope. 1/4 of a year down.

Congrats on 90 days, Sun!
I'd be lying if I said I didn't miss the escape that a case (or two) of beer used to bring, especially on the weekends.
I'm just starting Day 63 and hope to make it to where you are now.
It ain't easy, but so far it's been more than worth it!

Also i am the same as you on day 39, today is the day i miss most of all would go to footy, come back have dinner and sip all day, i suppose i am starting to feel a bit better and anxiety is hopfully starting to come under control, just seems like everday is the same and long if that makes sense. I also find myself asking when will that be it.
Have a good day

Thanks for the congrats. Yeah I know how you feel Former beer lover and Robbo78 especially... At that period of my recovery I felt completely stuck... my family had pretty much all peaced to the states, except my dad who was only home on weekends. It was like the mind dipped in molasses... it does get better...
