6 months today

I'm at 6 months sober today. Thank you all for your help and support, it has been invaluable to me!

Getting sober has been the hardest and most rewarding thing I have ever done and I have not regretted it one second. To those out there that are still struggling: it is possible to get clean for good -- if I can then anyone can!

Congratulations!

I'm on day 4 today. I have done ten years before though. Did 6 months about two years ago. Keep going. Do you know if you have to have many posts before you can post or something? I wanted to create a thread but don't see the option anywhere?

Welcome to SR! I'm glad you are here!

I'm not sure about restrictions on new members starting threads, I wasn't aware of such a restriction. The New Thread button for me appears on the upper left hand corner of the board.

That is Great

It is inspiring to hear.. you have supported some of us as well so we should thank you for being there and offering your advice as I now know what a struggle it can be and the rewards and feeling of freedom you can gain. It is sustaining it that is the difficult part.. Again I aspire to reach that mark.. congrats..
