Greatful for SR.

I went 66 days last fall (2017, Oct 25- Dec 31) when I first decided to see if I could survive without alcohol. I figured, if I could make it to the end of the year, through the holidays, that I would have proven something to myself, that I could handle my affliction with alcohol. And on New Year’s Eve 2018, I MADE IT! Yay!

And then I had a drink...

And that was it for my brief stint as a recovering alcoholic. By mid Jan I was right back where I started and the rest of 2018 was a blur.

I don’t want 2019 to be like every other of the last 27 years I’ve spent drinking, and I’m making a commitment to starting anew and leaning in a little closer to the SR community. I’m 3 days in now and ready to make a lasting change this time.

I am truly greatful for Sober Recovery.

I feel you! I went 6 months last year. Longest I've ever by far. Now I'm starting anew at the top of day 4.

You can do it! You have proven it to yourself. Welcome to the community
