Red face 2 months strong and growing stronger

So I have reache'd my 2 month mark. My energy has gotten so much better, my out look on life has changed tremendously, and I am happily turning everything down.. I can honestly say I am done. I have a daughter who needs me and just found out I will add another addition to our family My babies are more important than a pill. Pills are short lasting but my babies love for me are forever. Pills can't do that and I have finally realized that. I also learned that even if no one loves you that it's important to love yourself because we are the most important. Church has really helped me also. I have been able to talk to my pastor about my struggles and my beliefs and how I felt stuck in a hole, but my life has been returned as well as my believe in God. He truly is great. Others may have a differant belief but that's ok. Everyone has their own thoughts and beliefs and if it works for them then that's awesome. Love to u all. Jess

Hi Jess,

Congratulations on your new baby-to-be and your recovery.

It sounds like you have solid beliefs about your life and your recovery and that's great.

Congratulations to you Needingafriend. That's great news.

In the Newcomers Daily Support section there is a thread called Class of January 2015. You would be very welcome there. I post there regularly as it is good to share thoughts and experiences with people who quit (booze, drugs, whatever) at roughly the same time
