45 days today!

Hi all! I wanted to pop in today on day 45! I cannot believe I am halfway to 90 days! I know that when I only had a day or two sober I would read posts like this and be stunned and full of hope that people could climb out of the hopelessness that I was living. I hope it helps somebody to know that if I can sober up ANYBODY can! I drank myself to oblivion nearly every night for 5 long years. I gave my late 20's and early 30's to my addiction. I want newcomers to know that life can be good again! It is your addiction that tells you it is hopeless! Ok I have to go work, but I am doing it 10 pounds lighter and with a clear head!

Carla
