F355

Last night and tonight I'm without both, and it's amazing how great I feel already, without the "edge" of marijuana or the intoxicating effects of alcohol.

It's great to hear you're feeling good already! One of the things that kept me going in the early days was how I felt getting up in the morning. I started to feel more positive and a little stronger every day. I even liked the fact that the birds were singing, whereas I either hadn't noticed them before, or dreaded that it meant I had to drag myself through another day.

Definitely take it one day at a time, be patient and try not to overwhelm yourself. As much as you can, stay in the moment. It takes practice, but it's a way of reaffirming and accepting life "as it is." Relax as much as you can. Keep it simple. Don't get ahead of yourself. Enough advice?! lol.........

I agree. There's NOTHING quite like waking up in the morning after a night of complete sobriety. It's wonderful.
