1 year today!

One year ago I gave up drinking... The best decision I have ever made in my life. I thank everybody here for being my support. To those that are just starting take one day at at time and I can assure you each day gets better.

Great job! I remember after a year went by I felt much "safer". All the triggers had been faced & conquered - holidays, birthdays, vacations, etc. Congratulations to you!!

The one year milestone is not to be treated likely. For me, hitting one year was anticlimactic -- I wished I had 10.

Reflecting on it now, at a whopping 14 months, I realize that is indeed a miracle. Congratulations on yours!

Hevyn "learning to live again" can't agree more with that! Strange how my normal use to be getting drunk every chance I could. Now I am relearning on how to live.

Congratulations on one year! It really is a monumental accomplishment, and for me it validated that I could, at last, do something right.
