One year today
Shoot, I was having so much fun I almost forgot about my one year anniversary without alcohol.
This is a big milestone for me so you could imagine how proud I am. Just wow, this is the longest I've been sober since I was like 15. Crazy.
Now I'm just focused on improving on all aspects of my life. I'm currently working on some new hobbies, like maybe get into mountain biking or something. Definitely try to keep myself occupied as much as I can.

Congratulations, that is huge. You should be proud.
Your mentioning it's the longest you've been sober since fifteen resonated with me. I wasn't sober since fourteen when I quit. Wow, that brought back some memories, so thanks.
Best to you and many more years to you.

A whole year - that is fabulous! It feels so good to get through a year, with all it's triggers (holidays, vacations, etc.) I felt much stronger when I knew I could get over all those hurdles.

Thanks for the replies so far 🙂
I think I big reason why I've been doing so well is because I just couldn't live that way anymore. Being dependant on alcohol especially physically as a lot of you know is no fun place to be.
So even if I start to romanticize about drinking, all the bad that I went through completely overrides those thoughts, and that's basically where I'm at, and that's where I want to stay.
