One month today
Sober now for a calendar month For those starting out, it gets better every day, the only regret is not doing this sooner. Life it good!

Thanks Mike. I did cold turkey (not for everyone!) I drank every day, but was I suppose what's called 'high functioning'. Had 2-3 incredibly tough days (mainly mental) then a difficult week. Since then it's been a steady improvement, and more committed than ever not to self poison ever again.
