Smile Three years sober today!!

I still can't believe I've gotten so far, considering how bad off I was. I thought I'd never be able to stay sober, thought I was a real loser, but I was wrong. Thanks to my addiction counselor and the good people here I've been happily sober for three years now and it keeps on getting better.

If you're just starting out, or starting over, just keep at it til you get it right. Never give up on yourself.


Thank you to all my friends here for supporting me along this journey.

I got up early to start your 3-year thread, but you beat me to it.

You were determined not to let alcohol steal your life, and look at you now. We are so proud of you. Happy to have been along for the ride on this amazing journey.

Least, I'm so darn proud of you I could burst!! I know it wasn't easy but you stuck with it and kept going and it has been a privilege to walk with you on your journey.

Congratulations, dear friend, this is a special day for a special lady.

Least, you were one of my first friends when i joined SR. You were my hero when you had 90 days!
Time flies when we're having fun.
Congrats on the milestone. And thanks for your continuing help and support to me and to everyone else.
