Welcome to the family.

It will get better the longer you're sober.

Great to have you with us Kylie - I'm so glad you're going to bed sober. No awful morning tomorrow - filled with regret. It's so good to be free.

Hi Kylie, good for you. You are going to bed sober, awesome. I am curious to know how you sleep (if at all). Keep us posted with an update.

I was not prepared for the levels of anxiety and guilt I'm feeling today all I can think about is the look in my partners eyes and wondering if my family can ever truly forgive me for the last 5 years of hell I've put them through?! I'm so angry with myself for not doing this sooner! I've never been more determine to do something in my life!!

Way to go Kylie!

Going to bed sober for the first time is one thing.

Waking up sober is even better !

So inspired to see your determination . I"m turning to SR every time I need a nudge to encourage me to keep going.

And the last five years? They have happened. As has the first day of you taking back control.

Well done !
