50 Days Sober
Not sure if this is the right place to post this, but I just wanted to say it. Today marks my 50th day sober.
It hasnt been easy, and I havent been posting alot here because I just dont want to think about drinking at all. The voice in my head is still telling me every day to drink and trying to convince me it wont lead to anything bad. Thankfully Ive been able to ignore it.
Thanks for the awesome place to vent, everyone. I'm doing this sober thing on my own and I havent told anyone. I would like to avoid letting everybody in my life know just how bad my drinking had gotten.
Anyway, thanks again, and good luck to everyone else in their quest for a happy life!

50 days...ssssuuuuuwwwweeettt! Nice job. Hey you handle it how you want, you want to keep some people out of the know, that's fine. Please consider other support systems like AA though. Welcome!

Well done on your 50 days - I love hearing how folks are getting on as it gives me a boost as well.
I understand what you mean about not wanting to think about it at all. It's a fine balance for me though as I don't want to forget how bad it was, so reading on here helps me remember and gives me strength to resist when I get some crazy idea about drinking again.
The fact that you say "the voice in my head is still telling me every day to drink and trying to convince me it wont lead to anything bad" suggests that by coming on the forum you wont be doing that much harm as alcohol is already on your mind anayway?
Just a thought...
Congrats again on your 50 days

Don't let that voice take you down. It's telling you lies and will lead you back to that Dark Place.
