First sober Bday in awhile!

Well it's been 12 years since I was last sober for my 14th birthday. Feel a little nervous about how today will go Esp once I'm off work later. Co workers already have been asking me about bars ect and I simply said I'm not into partying anymore and then got made fun of for being " straight edge". I'm proud to be sober so I didn't let it really get to me, it was annoying if anything. I think if I look at today more as just another day it might help with the pressure to go out. Thinking about giving AA another shot and tonight might just be the night.

Boozefree, I am so proud of you!!

Just look at your thoughts!! You now see yourself as caring for yourself, and in so doing you put that above pressures, or the past. You deserve a fantastic life Boozefree. One in which YOU are in charge, NOT alcohol in charge. NOT what others think of you in charge. NOT the past in charge. YOU. NOW. TODAY.

Happy Sober Birthday BF!
Addiction was NOT invited to your party!
Good for you for not letting it crash your birthday..
