One year sober!!
 
Repost from Gratitude List:

I am so grateful for all who have participated in my sobriety this past year. I am thinking back to my last drunk :friday:-- a pathetic evening in front of the TV with my beer and martinis and whatever else was there. I was just completely checked out of life. I didn't care about anyone or anything unless I needed something from them, or needed them to help me create drama to fill the void in my life.

I am thankful for my psychiatrist :hypnotize at the time, who, speaking of my depression, told me that there was only so much the medication and therapy could do. I needed to take action in order to get better. I don't know if she knew then about my drinking (she probably did), but I applied what she said to both problems, addressing the most important, drinking, first.

Thank you to all my SR friends who have played such an important part in my recovery! I only hope I can repay the favor someday!

Thanks all! I had a great day yesterday. I went to a meeting last night and found that I shared the 1 year b-day with another person in the group! It was cool to hear what everyone shared about their 1 year b-days and what a big deal it is. I have to admit I was a little sad, though, (having just moved here two months ago) because it feels weird not to celebrate the year with people I sobered up with, but I'm so grateful I found a good home group here.

I was way more emotional than I thought I'd be. Especially considering I haven't been feeling too many emotions lately. So today, I feel slightly hungover. Thank God it's just an emotional hangover and not a boozy one!

Day 366 is pretty good, too!
