Six weeks tomorrow, Thanks everyone!!
Ahh... Finally once again out of that STUPID, self defeating cycle of drinking away woes, sobering up, finding all my problems still there if not worse, then drinking them away again. Will be 6 weeks tomorrow and having no problems or issues. Back to 60-90 minutes a day, 5-6 days a week, on an exercise bike and/or some medium weights, better at my software job, have lost weight, eating better, feeling better. Still have the occasional "can't sleep" night, or brain fog day, but it's a world better than where I was at! Just wanted to thank everyone here for their words of encouragement and sharing their own stories and motivations, it all helps!
Peace,
..Mike

Good for you, Mike.
Isn't it amazing how life changes once we put down the bottle?
I missed years of my life to drink. I'll never get them back, but I'm making the most of the ones I have left. What a blessing!
Wishing you continued sobriety.

Congrats!
Mike I love that line in your profile about being incredibly stupid. Aren't we all? lol
Here's another I like to apply to me whenever I think I am so superior in relation to my allowing myself to become an alcoholic for so long. BTW I am 59.
True wisdom is less presuming than folly. The wise man doubteth often, and changeth his mind; the fool is obstinate, and doubteth not; he knoweth all things but his own ignorance. - Akhenaten
That from more than 200 years ago.
Congrats! Glad you are feeling better!
