Rossy

Hello,well in 6 days it will be a full year since my last drink,I am pretty proud of getting to a year

I decided to give it up because I saw myself starting to develop a drink problem and the fact its expensive,bad for weight and I was sick of hangovers.

Being 23 I get a lot of strange looks when I say I don't drink but I don't care less

Congratulations Rossy! I'm always hugely impressed when people your age make the wise decision to give up the drink.

Let it ever be so

Rossy

Thanks I am going for another year

Well done !

I *really* wish I'd done it at your age, took me nearly 20 years more. You must feel great physically and mentally.

That's the kind of thinking that needs applause.
Character forming , does it help or hinder coming from Scotland where drinking is almost a badge of life.

Hi Rossy

What an inspiration you are quitting at 23 because you know it is the best thing for you.

Fair play to you. I know what peer pressure can be like so an extra big well done for being your own person and not caring waht others think.

Congrtatulations a few of us can just see a problem and stop like that.

God bless you!!

Rossy

Thanks guys actually thinking about it I have had very little in the past 22 months. I do have very strong willpower and determination,If I get something my head I have to go through with it.

Congratulations Rossy. Keep up the good work. I blew it after 6 1/2 years of sobriety but have almost 2 months now and I am to feel terrific again.

Would you care to share with us which method of recovery you are using or have used if any and what helps you the most.

Thanks for sharing your accomplishment.
