Well done!! How long you been sober for if you don't mind me asking? Today is my 65th day.

June 10th was my first sober day, so I guess it is about 73 days?

Racking up those days. I am jealous. Only one way to get my total up. Not effing drink!

Darkcloud

It's nothing to be jealous about. This stuff ain't easy. I have been on and off drinking for 52 years, and now, at this age, my body gave me some BAD signs. I put it down for good. I have no choice, It isn't one day at a time for me anymore...It's like you say "Don't effin' drink". It solves NOTHING- Keep on keeping on

Nice! Sounds like your new values trumped your addiction!

Darkcloud

Yes they did! A combination of help from this web site, my body telling NO MORE, and my doctor telling me my next relapse could be my last. I think I used those words on here once before, but now they came from my doctor.

This is a great post to read ! Well done

Thank you! I am not saying what I am doing is an easy task. I am lucky. As I said, my body was telling me something is seriously wrong. Some people don't get a warning. Plus, when my Dr. told me it was a matter of living or dying, well, that was enough put it down for good. I WILL see my granddaughter graduate High School in 4 years, and I WILL see her walk down the isle if that is in her plan. Peace to you and all reading.
