A Great Book and 24 hours on the shelf sober.

So ive made it thru my first sober 24 hours. In the interim , which has seemed like a week, i read a wonderful book. It is called "DRY" by Augusten Burroughs. I think those in my spot whould give it a look, it sure as god opened my eyes up very wide.

Good Day, God Bless, and Remember....the want will always be there....but you can control the hand that acts on it. write that down.

Congrats on your 24 hours!! I remember the days that seemed like months. Luckily, they didn't last all that long.

Crack is my DOC, but the book sounds like something I'd like to read.

Hugs and prayers!

I like 'Dry' also. If you are an Augusten Burroughs fan, you might check out his earlier book "Running With Scissors". It's mind-blowing!

Good for you on getting through the 24 hours.
