Hi folks! It is day 150 and it gets better all the time.
Thanks SR for your support. This place is a lifeline.

One thing I'm starting to notice is enhancements of memory... So all the worth the while. Onto month 6.

Congratulations, Unixber! That's brilliant

I'm glad your memory's getting better. I'm still struggling a bit with mine (but it's probably nothing to do with alcohol and everything to do with age and being more than a little potty! )

Yay! Congratulations on your sober time!

Congrats Unix I have to tell you, you have a lot to look forward to my the 5th month was the best!!!! It's when you arrive in the sober sweet spot. Be proud of all your success!!!

Thanks. One thing that has become a norm is that "recovery-time" goes a little bit faster... and there is no conscious clinging to day-count. It is automatic and sometimes refreshed. Paws has become tolerable and rarely if ever causes a nuisance it did at the beginning times.

Cravings are less, different and walking past an isle of booze (if so happens to be) does no longer cause any kind of fit, but the booze is seen as a disgustive object that is something of the past. Still... it is one day at a time... appreciating each day and remembering that I am in recovery and any thought that suggests a form of complacency is the work of the hiding yet fainting addiction. It is still there.

Anyway things are a whole lot brighter today.

Well done Unix! That's an excellent description of month #5 - I couldn't agree more.

We always say it gets better and easier. I hope some of our newbies will read our positive posts and hold on until things lighten up.
