Day 10

Hi all,

Here on Day 10 of sobriety. Things are going pretty well. I definitely had a few minutes today were a drink sounded good, but I was able to shake it off. The forums continue to be a beacon of light for me and help whenever I am struggling. I have noticed that I have a very addictive personality. Now that I am starting to NOT drink when I typically would, it's almost as if this is my new addiction. An addiction to being sober?! Anyway, its a nice feeling 90% of the time. It's definitely tough sometimes more than others, but I just keep reminding myself how much better I feel, my attitude is better, my social skills are improving, and I am able to open up more to my wife.

Way to go JBL!
Aaahh... I love it... An addiction to being Sober!?
What a great concept.

I too am finding that when I think about drinking, I think about having to edit my "last drink" date on here and go back to day 1.

You are an inspiration!

Hooray for 10 days!! Sounds like things are already changing for the better. I think the new addiction sounds like a much healthier option, just don't try to quit it!
