I am stronger than I have ever been, and there isn't enough time to do everything I want to do I cannot believe what a little over a year has accomplished. I will never forget those nights and weekends when I was so bored not drinking. Fast-forward and my life is full. I no longer think of suicide. My heart does not race at 2:30 a.m. I take care of myself. I am more present. Life is great. For those of you just starting out, stick with it. Just don't take that first drink. You can do it, I was a life-long drinker for many many years. I do not miss it. Not even for St. Pat's. |
Good for you htown, sounds like your doing so well. Loving the sober life myself. At least most days. Very well done |
That's wonderful to hear, Htown. We do go through many phases - I'm happy to know your life is fulfilling now. I know others will appreciate your thoughts & learn from them. :) |
Awesome on the one year+. I know what you mean - I have so much energy now and never seem to have enough time to do everything I want. All those years I wasted feeling miserable and hungover everyday until I started drinking the rest of everyday away. |
Thanks Htown. I never seem to tire of reading stories of recovery. |
:c011: |
Fantastic news Htown, thanks for sharing it with us. It's a great feeling, isn't it? |
great post HTown - :tyou |
Good for you, Htown. Glad you are doing well. |
Day 8 today, technically. But I've chosen Pi Day as my sobriety date because how awesome is that? I'm jittery and can't even address an envelope. |
I agree. Sobriety is literally the best thing that ever happened to me:) |
