Good morning from snowy Midwest USA. Beautiful snow storm moving through all day today. Hope to make it to the gym this morning if roads aren’t too bad. Another full day as I continue to dig myself out of the hole of procrastination I was in for the past several months while drinking.
Have a great day all!

Erratic, I hope your mood is improving. Each day is a new day right?? I have to remind myself of that a lot. Good job with your sobriety. Hang in there
I am doing fairly well. Better then a week ago that is for sure. We can do this my fellow February classmates.

Newbie here! Count me in. I am sick of my life and it has got to change. On day 3 and I know I'm going to have feel like crap but just don't know how long? Wish I had someone to talk to that knows what it's like to be a functioning alcoholic. I feel like I'm alone in this battle...that's how I wound up here. Thanks for having me!

Hello class of February 2022. I would like to join you. I had four years of continuous sobriety until September 2017, thanks to SR mostly, when longstanding depression and anxiety got the better of me and I drank again. I could go for long periods without alcohol, and thought, ridiculously, of course, that I was "fine". But the "beast" is back and I can't live like this anymore. I'm older, but sadly, not wiser, and I have more health problems. I live alone and am very lonely and alcohol has once again become my default for dealing with life's problems and isolation. I can't believe how shameful I feel going to buy alcohol, yet I still do it. I want to want this, but it's so hard.
Day 1 today.

This is where I came in, six years ago. I joined the February 2016 class and survived and thrived. I sometimes go back and read my posts in the class and it's like a diary of my road toward sobriety. I will have been sober for six years tomorrow, February 3. For those of you in the Feb 2022 class, I just wanted to say that it CAN be done. If I can get sober and remain sober, anyone can.
Joining the Feb class was instrumental in my recovery. At first I thought the class idea was corny, but I jumped in with both feet and realized how important the small group class is for accountability. I have friends in the class that I text with today, all of whom I consider to be close friends.

SimplySue, I relied on To Do lists in early recovery too. It helped to lift my spirits when I could cross off one or two things each day.
Erratic, I'm glad you're feeling a bit better today and good job on Day 10.
Leshar, I'm glad to see you working on Day 1.
February is one month closer to Spring, so stay the course, everyone.
