I was feeling totally lost. I was in a very dark place, October was a really hard month and I didn't think I'd get out. I had resigned myself to the idea that I was probably going to die drinking. I would come and read stories here on the forum and think that I was one of the ones that wouldn't recover.

I had managed to dig myself into a hole so deep and dark with alcohol that I didn't even know where to begin in getting out. Today I can happily say I have 30 days without alcohol and I pray to God I'll be posting about many more.

On my second week I had a very strong urge to drink it was a really hard day to get through. This past weekend I had a minor urge but it was gone as fast as it came. To all those who are still struggling on the first days I wish you luck and my prayers are with you. Hang in there, it does get better.

Great work !! Today is the most important day of your miracle once again. Everyday forward can be a gift of freedom. I have over 2700 days, but today is the day. Today is the day I have another chance to do anything life has to offer. For over 12,000 days, I was a captive of my best friend and partner, beverage Alcohol,now - no longer! Today is the only day promised, make it a sober day of learning and growing. Today is truly is the best day
