It's hard for me to keep reading threads about relapses, but you guys are giving me strength today because you are doing it.

Bimini - me, too. It hurts to read about relapses. I guess it is because we know the pain too well.

Woke up raring to go. I'd love another 24 hours, and I will go to bed sober tonight.

Stevie1 - my favorite thing is going to bed sober!!! Even when I have a really bad day for whatever reason, I think about crawling into my amazingly comfy bed where all is good and just smiling bc I am sober. YAY!!!

Thanks for this post Altoids. Had a dream last night that threw me for a loop. Honestly didn't know where today was going to lead me. After reading it I know it will be a sober day though. Committing to another 24.

Congrats to the milestoners. Let's all make the best of today.

CA in for another 24 at 8 am. I have two job interviews today so I'm kind of nervous, but leaving it to my H.P. and I know it will turn out the way it's supposed to.

Have a great day everyone!

"Going to bed sober" was a thing I read on another non-sobriety related forum just before I quit. It really hit me how nice that would be and how nice it would be to sleep eight hours instead of four-wake-up-in-terror-sick and then still having to stay in bed because the room was spinning. ugh and ugh.

"Going to bed sober" was something I said every day in the early days. It was one of the things that got me through a day. A day is all I had in me in the early days.

I guess that's still all I have. Today. God, grant me another day away from alcohol.

Checking in early here as i'm ill and have been in bed all day. (No doubt due to drinking so much the last few weeks that my immune system is at an all time low.)

Day 2. 20.30, Spain

messyliver, hang in there, friend. It will get better the longer you stay away from the drink. The first week is really tough. You can do it.

Checking in today with all you wonderful folks.

I can't believe half a year has passed already. I hope the next six months have a bit more happiness and less sadness, but no matter what I'll gratefully be here with all of you.
