100 days today

Thank you everyone here at SR. SR has been my only recovery program (besides my own spiritual efforts) and I find so much wisdom and understanding here. I feel like when I was drinking my life was like being hooked up to a life support machine; I was breathing but I wasn't living. These days are sometimes harder but they are real. And for that I am deeply grateful. I am grateful for my husband who never threatened to leave even though I would have been gone long ago if the situation had been reversed. I am grateful for my beautiful children who light up my life. And I am grateful for this second chance at life, an opportunity I hope not to take for granted again.

I love the joy in your message. I hope that everybody here who is struggling moment to moment reads your post and truly recognizes somebody who has reclaimed joy of life and joy in life. You have reclaimed life itself. Thanks for the inspiration!

Congrats on 100 days! I've also recovered with just SR and some support from family and friends (I'm now over 3 years). Keep it up, it just gets better!

Good job Effortjoy,
We do have so much to be grateful for but when we drink we don't see it or feel it.

Love
