Talking Let's stick together, Day 1's!!! Who are you...?



I am curious to know who else is starting over, anew or just simply quitting their addictions today. I know of a few of us: Solice, PlayFare and me! I just want to encourage all of us who may have tried a thousand times before to quit, that TODAY is all that matters! Our Day 1 is here! Let's grab it! K?

We can't change our past... We can change our future, starting right here and now! I want us to succeed and come together because we really need eachothers support, encouragement and care!

My prayers go out to you all and hope you post so I can send you msgs and we can support eachother on this new, crazzzy & wild journey into LIFE and LIVING!

LMN.... Girlfriend! Does this mean you have to start over???? That's for you to decide and I love you whether you start new or continue on your journey as before the wine.... This is your decision, friend!

Thank you! :ghug

Hi I'm going through the same thing and it feels so good to know that I'm not alone!!!
I just even know where to begin after all my screwing up over and over again, it just seems hopeless and nobody really understands me....I found a bottle while cleaning and of course it's sayiing drink me drink me (it's okay) you will stop tomorrow or after that, but I don't think so. I can't just have a lilttle of anything it's all or nothing for me. Kind of twisted right but I over do everything, so hang in there because I am trying minute by minute....

Starting over is tough to do, but necessary. There is always hope!

Hi. I'm new to this forum. I've been trying to manage my addiction way too long by myself. I had a few months sober and relapsed over the weekend. Started researching and found this site. It's wonderful to see so many people helping each other here. Thanks

Yet another day one for me as well- I haven't even been posting much because I feel ridiculous with all my 'day 1's. Thanks for starting this thread Nicki!

LMN- LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the Cowbell pic! That SNL bit is a classic.
