Citrus, I’ve had way too many recycling days with the bin filled to the top with bottles and I cringed at the thought of what the neighbors must think

Travelbug, I’m thinking of you! Stay strong!

So,

I have played it before while drunk and thought it was.....well Idk, it was probably disgusting then to. I played a game while sober. A huge milestone. Anyway still sober...... So happy to be sober.

Morning, day 13 and all is well. Went on a two mile walk. Weather is nice. Was sitting on the deck having a virgin Bloddy Mary. Another first. Life is good. Thank you God.

Hi all, Day 12 and all good.
Spent yesterday online doing the first of a three day drink driving awareness course. The course should take 4 months off my 18 month ban which is great. More importantly i enjoyed listening to the others stories in the zoom group, so varied it makes you realise a lot of people struggle with emotions and situation for so many reasons.

I hope you're all well and enjoyed a sober weekend.

Hi Jimuk, glad to hear you’re getting the most out of the zoom classes. It’s true what they say you never know what somebody is going through.

I had my first alcohol free Saturday in a longgg time. Woke up this morning worried I drank, but didn’t!

I'm in bed hungover, called in sick, don't remember getting home, don't wanna do this anymore.
I'm done... As long as I think I can moderate I will always have a problem because we all know where moderation leads and if I think I can moderate I'm gonna always be lying to myself..
Day 1..

That sucks Red I can't forget that feeling.
And we choose to do it to ourselves but we also still have a chance. I am sick and tired of lying to my own self.
Hope you feel better soon.

Completely up to you Five - post in both threads if you like

Welcome back Red - I got to the point where I knew I couldn’t live another day the way I was living as a drinker.
I was dying inside and not doing much better physically...

I really hope you have reached that point of being willing to do whatever it takes to change, for good

Morning y’all. It is a beautiful day here in Charlotte. Headed home this afternoon, home sweet home. I am on day 14. I have had a few cravings but not all that bad. I guess that when you get the crap scared out of you you tend to not want the poison that is killing you.....stay strong my friends

Hi Folks - back to day 1 for me. This has to be my last one. I’ve had a lot of them since August.
