Hello class!
I just spent some time getting to know all of you and would really like to join the April class. Today is Day 4 for me and while things have been going quite well, I need to be ready if/when I'm tempted.
This was a really interesting beginning for me. Day 1 was nearly symptom free ( I had quite a bit to drink the day before) and I actually felt amazing towards the end of the day. Sleep came easily, and I woke the next morning rested and refreshed. Maybe this was a sign?
My renewed passion came from realizing I want to be healthy for my milestone birthday coming up in July. After my physical (amazingly, everything was spot on...liver numbers even came way down from last year), I realized how blessed I was to have not done any permanent damage, at least nothing that could be seen.
Even on Day 4, I see improvement in my memory, health and mood. Alcohol only makes my depression worse, eventually.
Well, that's my little into and I'm looking forward to getting to know all of you!

Hello everyone. I'd like to join this class. I've joined other classes, and even made it to a month sober with the Jan 2017 class, but I relapsed. I'm back and looking to get sober and stay sober. I hope you all have a great sober day!

And I know this is gonna sound weird but I actually hate the word alcohol. I hate the way it sounds and the way it roles around people's mouths when they say it... It's a bit like listening to someone run their fingers down a chalk board. I never liked it even before I drank. Said it was weird didn't I.

Day 7
Yes. Seven days without a drink... But, don't congratulate me yet! 'Cause since Friday night, as I was trying really hard to resist a trip to ABC, I came up with a great new idea... How'bout if I smoke a little bit of pot? Right? I have been smoking for the last two days... I know... I know... I know... I can't seem to be able to stay without any substance in me... It scares me. I am giving up.

I made almost two weeks of progress and slipped over the weekend. Sunday's are the hardest, I had to run some errands and pulled into two liquor stores but didn't go in. I need a better tool box, almost caved. I'm still the Class of April 2017.
Day two. Again.

Good morning folks - Day 2 here. Well its a start. 
Woke up feeling very shaky, and really wish I didn't have to go to work today, and wish I didn't have an appointment with a new dentist this morning. Just gotta put one foot in front of the other and make it through the day. This is a good reminder of my advice to others last time - gotta push through the first week and things will start to feel better.
Take care all
