Random thoughts in early sobriety
36 days sober. Freaking amazing. I truly believed I was incapable.
I feel physically, mentally and emotionally better, eventhough I am suffering an upper respiratory bug.
Gratitude carries me through my days.
Not one single person has offered me a drink or asked me why I am not drinking.
I can get in my car anytime, day or night, and not worry about a dui.
Recovery is a process undertaken one day at a time.
I passed all the gift boxes of booze in the store and thought about all the damage contained in each bottle.
I wonder if the cashiers at the stores in which I bought my booze miss me.
More to come.

Great stuff. No more anxiety of blacking out, saying insane things, posting nonsense on social media, no worries of killing someone in a DUI. Such a great feeling. Few years ago, I had drank all night before thanksgiving. Showed up to my families house for the holiday with black sharpie marker drawings all over the side of my face and vulgar things written all down the back of my neck. I was still too drunk that morning to notice. It was highly embarrassing and my family just looked at me with pity. I looked much cleaner this holiday season

Congrats!!!
I just started my journey as well. Being a 21-year old I have resisted two evenings of going out with friends and getting blackout and it feels SO DAMN TERRIFIC.
I was actually excited to say no. I felt empowered for the first time in my life. In control. Without this site though I feel I wouldn't be as willing. I have a whole community here cheering me on.. fantastic!

W4Wizard - the black marker story is hysterical. We can laugh now. It was probably pretty sad when it happened.
