Day 1 (again) went well

Spent some of the day here on SR.
Had some friends over for dinner and games tonight. I had fun sober??!!
These friends dont and never have drank so that mad it MUCH more pleasant for me.

Im going to pull this off.
Im very motivated.
I look at last week sober, then blowing it last night as a dress rehearsal.
The memory of my precious 6 days sober (and its peace, quiet, serenity ,rest and feeling good about myself ) Is more powerful than the BS glamor of alcohol.
So, no regrets - just focus.
THANK you all...and you know who you are here for "being there"...
I plan on being here for the long haul.

Day 13 here, played music with a bunch of people drinking at a jam session and stuck to my grape soda. Gets less and less tempting each day really. Especially when you see everyone else beginning to slur, trip over things, etc.. motivation

livingnow, your 6 precious days sober is where I am at tonight. Thank God. I will remember your post as I go on through my day tomorrow so I can make it 7 days.

I am hoping for the peace, serenity, rest and feeling good about myself that you are talking about. Your an inspiration to me to make it another day.

You can do it too. You proved it. Hugs.

Drinking is insanity. I'd give any amount of money to feel better now.

A new day, a new life, a new chance! Congrats on coming back!

Now that you're back, how are you going to get where you are going? You need a plan in my estimation. You need to determine how you're going to exceed 6 days. I struggled so much with the first couple of day. I @#$ thought life sucked, but I figured the suck I was feeling, did suck as much as the suck I felt before.

A conundrum right, where have you been, where do you go? How to achieve the unachievable, well you made the first right step by coming here. Now what, do you have support, can you find support. AA, CBT, rational recovery, counseling, you need support.

Good day friend, wish you well and you can and will do this. Need someone to talk to, listen to you, or what ever hit me up.
