100 days clean at midnight!

I found this board as I was looking for just for today quotes and I'm so happy I found it. I got clean in October 13 2012. It's been a long hard struggle. I seeked helped and went into treatment and I did 90 in 90. I'm back home now and I never expected it to be as hard as it is :/ But I have the love and support of my family. I hope to meet some good people here. Alot of the time I isolate and feel so alone.

Don't worry you will get there. It's been a long road and I got many more days to get through. But the advice I recieved was saying the serenity prayers over and over and over. go to meetings. And just take it moment to moment. Or even minute by minute

Yeah good for you. I am right behind you as at midnight I will be at 92 days. I could not even attempt a 90 in 90 but I have done outpatient due to my kids and there is no way I can do more than the three a week. Don't you just feel wonderful everyday?

I also am doing outpatient due to my legal issues. I wish I could say I feel good everyday. Lately it's hard making it through each day. What I struggle with is having my kids on the weekend. I feel like the worst mother.

It got better when I started reaching out more, and FORCING my brain to think postively. Sounds stupid, but it works. Gratitude lists work too. And exercise, and looking after your body (eating REALLY well). When I go two days without my regular super healthy diet and supplements, my anxiety and depression skyrockets.

Yay! Good for you! I'm in the same boat. I got sober on October 28, 2012 - so my 90 is coming up on Friday and I also did 90 in 90 and I feel great. The meetings really do help, I never thought they would, but they do! Congrats so much! I know it's been a hard few months for me and I celebrate every single day I wake up sober and go to bed sober.

Congrats for the 100 days. That is so awesome. I am 8 months sober Thursday and I isolate a lot also. I am working on trying to find a hobby and some sober friends. this gets discouraging at times, but progress and change will come as long as we stay sober. Keep going your awesome. Alot of people cannot get 100 hours. You can do anything. Keep it up. We are growing.
