Sometimes staying sober is hard. I used to hate the saying "One day at a time" in early sobriety, but it really is one day at a time. Sometimes it's one hour at a time. It doesn't matter how long I've been sober; I still struggle sometimes. I have a bad day, or several bad days, negative emotions and rotten thoughts, and old feelings crop up, like about how much life sucks. I start thinking the way I used to, and then of course thoughts of drinking and drugging crop up. I don't consider myself a drug addict, although I was at one time well on my way to becoming one; but I am an alcoholic, and as an alcoholic and an almost addict, thoughts of drinking and using occasionally enter my brain - and sometimes I entertain those thoughts!

So today I'm committing to 24 more hours of sobriety, today more than most days. No matter how much "sober time" I've got, today is all I really have!!

Congratulations milestoners!

Nice post Dane. It all starts with a thought right? I think the occasional rogue thought about drinking is part of my reality. Another saying often seen around here is 'play the tape through'.....and it's so useful to do that just thinking about the day at hand. Changes the trajectory of my thoughts and gets me through the day. Boy am I so thankful the next morning!

In for 24.
