I've never been sober more than a week since I was 15, I'm 26 now. That's over a decade and for being this young it's crazy to think that I'm getting sober. I'm so excited to get that 30 day chip, I'm very much looking forward to it. But I can't look that far a head, I can't even look to tomorrow. All I can do is take it a day at a time and worry about today alone. I'm lucky that I was in-patient for the withdrawals and I'm also lucky that I've only had one day so far that's been hard and I wanted to drink. That's why I can only worry about today, if I look ahead I give permission for my alcoholism to jump out at me and when I get stressed the chance I take a drink to deal is much higher. I'm thankful for my husband, my family, my friends at AA and here at SR. Everyone I have in my life are great support and they help me day to day, so thank you all. Day 20 and I'll take another 24.
