Great story of recovery Tosh congratulations!

Keep up the great work & I wish you the very best in your recovery/

Thanks all.

It's Tuesday morning here, and I should really be getting ready for work. It's funny isn't it that I always thought I'd be this dynamic working machine once I got sober, yet here I am, not really looking forward to another day of graft; crickey this week has been dragging since yesturday morning.

The sun is shining and I'd rather be out 'playing' somewhere!

I guess I'm just a naturally lazy bugger, drunk or sober.

Hi all,

I apologise for resurrecting a post that's over four years old, but I've just read through it; it's almost an early diary of my struggle to get sober; and I quite enjoyed reading it.

Well, I'm still sober, over 17 months now (I did have one little brief slip) and I've never been as sober, well organised, and happy!

AA did it for me, but however anybody gets sober, I'm just happy they're not drinking themselves to death.

Thanks to all in this forum and all those to helped me.

Regards,

Tosh

Tosh i just read this entire thread start to finish, and I must say, it was a very interesting journey that you were on. I'm so glad that everything has worked out for you. You are an inspiration to all of us still struggling. Thanks for keeping this thread updated!
