I’m in!

And yes I did want to be the first to post :)

Delighted to be here!

I just wanted to reach out to our friends who are caught in the polar vortex and hope they are staying as safe as they can.

I feel somewhat embarrassed on behalf of my own country - we have a light dusting of snow and everything shuts down, schools, transport etc.

Well I guess I'm in the January class but I just wanted to say welcome to any of you newcomers. Glad you're here!

Hello.

Count me in. Looking forward to a sober February.

Hello, I'm in the January class but might post in both too.

Nice to see familiar faces. :)
I'm on day 2. I think I will probably post in both classes as well. I need as much support as I can get. Looking forward to a sober Febuary weekend.

I'm committing to a sober February (one hour and one day at a time). I love day 1 of any month: it marks a new beginning and start. Welcome to all who are in for Feb!

Good night from the uk. Hope everyone got through tiday tonight sober. Think how wonderful it will be to wake tomorrow refreshed clear headed and sober.

I've tried this multiple times. Think I'm going to check out Celebrate Recovery. I also have about 60 Naltrexone. Naltrexone never worked bc I would just not take it when I wanted to drink. My plan is to get an accountability partner to ask me if I took it that day. It makes me very ill if I drink on it. Just gotta take it first thing in the morning and it takes the decision to drink off the table for the day.


We will see. I just moved to the beach and the spring and summer will be very tempting. Gotta get a head start here in February and take it one day at a time.


Glad to be here. My life is and has become almost unmanageable. I've got to get better. My momma didn't raise me to be a drunk.

A hello from someone from the Class of Feb 2016! This can be an amazing support group in your journey. Glad all of you are here.

Thanks for the support waterox and August :)

Welcome to everyone who has joined the February class. :)

Welcome to all the members joining the February class :wavey:

Hi everyone. Im back for another attempt. Ive hit a pretty dark place this week and can feel myself spiralling. Been kidding myself for months that Im in control and only drinking once a week. Three times this week, so drunk this morning I didnt wake up for work and missed a meeting I was supposed to be at. Alarm bells going off. I do not want this.

Welcome Awkward Kitty! We can do this together! You're not alone.

Glad you're back, AwkwardKitty, good to have you aboard :)

Hi Awkwardkitty!
You can do this. Post often. Next week can be a much better week. Be gentle with yourself the next few days.

I'm in ! This is my birthday month (the 23rd) And I would like to give myself 2 months sober as a the greatest gift.

2 months sober sounds like a wonderful self birthday present Ekohe!!

Day 2 in the bag for me. I am thankfully and wonderfully exhausted. Hoping for a good night sleep. See you all tomorrow. ❤

Welcome AK and Ekohe - thanks for the support CK :)

Ekohe,

I think I will take your cue and post here too. It is my birthday month as well (20th). I will have a nice even 30 days by that time.

Been posting a little bit in Jan group, but only sporadically as I relasped thru the middle of the month.

Good luck and strength to all.

Hey guys-sign me up!!! I need this month sober to stop myself spiralling. Like you AwkwardKitty I’ve been in a dark place recently. Having tried this time and time again, I know that soberiety makes my heart and soul sing, the other option is no longer an option for me!

I’ve got myself a sober app and I’ve finished day 3, day 4 is beginning. It’s all a bit messed up because I drunk in the morning.

Today so far: Woke up after 10hrs sleep. I really needed it. Had sweats, woke up jittery and anxious. I worked yesterday and worked from home so didn’t actually worked. Just did some cleaning and getting myself sorted. Have a lot of work to do before going away (long haul-but my friend I’m visiting has already been drilled in my drinking problem and we’ve promised to have a sober trip).

This is difficult. Trying to snap myself out of the post-drinking malaise and self loathing. Together we’re stronger though. Looking forward to having accountability in this thread and chatting with like-minded folk.

I’ve been struggling to stay sober for awhile and I refuse to start over again so I figured this is the best place to be right now!! I’m wanting sobriety to be a permanent journey not off and on likes it’s been over the year!!
Hopefully everyone has a lovely sober weekend!!!!

Hi everyone. Looking forward to an alcohol free February!

Good morning. Wishing you all a wonderful sober day!

Hi February people! Good to see you all! I'm having a fantastic day one. Hope everyone is enjoying the weekend!

Be gentle with yourself today BlueWellies. I was so embarrassed and full of shame 2 days ago. We don't have to feel that way anymore. Stick close to SR and post lots. We can get through this!

Day 2. Been drunk most nights for 2 weeks. I suffer from ADHD, anxiety, insomnia, as well alcoholism. Treatment has been hit and miss.

Lost my mobile phone and my wallet/ID during this binge. I am broke, unemployed, and alone. I am nearing a complete breakdown. All I have to eat is bread and water. Sick of life. It just gets worse....
