Day 12

Made it through day 12 and went to an AA meeting for the first time in a long time. I was a little nervous at first, but once we got started, it was all good. One guy looked at me funny and said "I recognize you from somewhere" and I said "right here ... about a dozen years ago". A huge smile brightened his face and when he said "well, welcome back" I relaxed. I was actually excited about going once I made up my mind to go this morning ... I looked forward to it all day. And I wasn't disappointed. I'm really glad I went, today was a much better day than yesterday and I feel so much better than I did last night. No anger, no nasty voice whispering I my ear. I feel ... content.

I always feel better after a meeting. Good on you for 12 days. Those first couple weeks are tough. Sounds like you're off to a good start, keep it up:-)

Nice one hokey, I worked out today that I'm on day day 12 as well.
It's a nice feeling sailing away from that last day of drinking.
