7 months sober today just checking in.
Hey Guys,
Its been a while...today I celebrate 7 months sober. Life has its ups and downs and I just take it as it comes and try to to worry about things because it doesn't help... in this 7 months I have grown a lot I'm starting to remember who I was before I started drinking which is good. However I also have learned the real opinion people and how they felt/feel about me because of my drinking....That super cool guy isn't so super cool and in some peoples opinions I'm a right bastard.... Oh well all I can do is the best I can. I have however learned my REAL friends the ones that knew me before, during and stuck with me threw my 10 year trip with booze. For them I am greatful. I work hard and volunteer...social anxiety is lessening...The wife and I love each other some days and want to punch each other in the throat other days. Its just how we are. But gone are the days of me getting drunk and doing something wrong and spending days guilty and apologizing for it. Next month I will have a year at my job in comparison to 4 jobs in 2 years.... I guess I have found my even keel and have to diligently man the rudder everyday. Just wanted to thank everyone here.... PS I am always around I check SR every morning when I wake and every night before bed... I'm just a lurker now and never was quite the poster..... Cheers!
