Two years sober today!

Wow, just looked at the date and noticed I'm two years sober today! And what a difference two years can make. When I found SR I was truly a mess, and life had become unmanageable. I could scarcely have imagined how much better things would be in just two short years! Just want to say that if I can do it anyone can do it!

Thanks, everyone. I wasn't even sure how I would feel about the "big day." In a way it's a big deal to me but on the other hand, the really big day was that day 2 years ago when I stumbled upon SR.

It's a huge deal having that much sober time. Be proud you've done great.

Just looked at the date? C'mon, it's a really important day in your life! I really hope that you will celebrate & honor yourself in a way that is joyous & meaningful!

I am glad that you are sober & part of this community. The world would be a little emptier without 100 percent of you in it!

Don't drink!

But seriously, keep your eyes on the prize. Play the tape forward all the way to the end; see that misery will be the result of "just one". It didn't work in the past and won't in the future. What works is believing in yourself and giving sobriety a chance.
