Season of Hope!
Well this Christmas was the first time in years i have been home and sober by my own will. I must admit i was a bit worried and scared, but the thoughts or craving never came. I have managed to work through this holiday season with a clear mind. This year i bought cards and sent presents and actually stayed at home and cooked a meal with my family. Its a new life. Totally new, my husband and stepdaughter were not in my life then, but they both know about my recovery and support me fully... I think it is amazing how this 14 year old girl just accepted me so well and is truly trying to help me through all of this. Its awesome. I feel at home with them, i feel safe, i feel like i can manage any type of crisis that comes about to try and detour me. I enjoy my meeting and this forum. I honestly do not know what i would do without aa and all of you. I hope all of you had a very merry Christmas and a happy sober new years...

totalchange that is wonderful to hear. I'm sure you're proud of yourself for that huge accomplishment. Glad to have you with us!
me01 - I'm sorry you've had a difficult time of it. You're so smart to focus on your own recovery - but I know how hard it is when you have to leave someone behind. We all understand how you feel.

Me01 - We really do have to learn to live in a whole new way. It does feel strange at first - I remember my first sober holiday season. I was very emotional & sorry for myself. I knew I was doing the right thing, but it took some getting used to. In time, you'll find things to replace the hours spent drinking/drugging. We promise it does get better.
