28 Days Later

And still sober. and feeling like I might finally be in a place to add something to this forum without feeling a bit unqualified. I've been here in the neighborhood for a long time now, and stopped in very sporadically to say hi. But I plan to become a less shy neighbor now. (I think I relate this to a neighborhood because I've always had many good friends living nearby, wherever I've lived, but this will be my first sober neighborhood - maybe that's why I'm shy!)

At any rate - I am feeling strong about this run at sobriety, and although I haven't posted much. I have been here peeking out the window, squeezing hard for Mavis, Serenidad, ThatDeliveryGuy, Meraviglioso, and so many others. I mourned Ncognito13, and am inspired by Soberwolf and Dee daily. I was on pins and needles as some of you toughed out serious withdrawals alone.

Sincere and multiple thanks to everyone here for sharing the bleak, the uplifting, the sad and the enpowering moments of their journeys.

Congratulations, earlyriser. It is good for me to hear how others move through this Journey. It doesn't matter how much sobriety one has.

Being newly Sober makes you no less qualified to voice here . In fact, because you are newly Sober, your voice is more important than you know. Reading posts from people in early Sobriety allows me never to forget that I was there, too. Thank you Earlyriser, and Congrats!
