147 days today , first time I counted!
 
Hi,

This is my third or fourth post on here. Never had any help from anyone
since I stopped drinking but think I need to shout it to the world so others know they can do it. It is possible- I'm living proof of it.

Mind you, I was in rehab three times over the past 20 years and had
a very thorough understanding of the disease.

It finally took me living alone on a farm with no friends or family to finally
make the necessary change.

I will pop in here now and again but more than likely drift off because
not thinking about alcohol is what works for me.

Good LUCK to all !!

Glad to hear you're doing well.

I find myself wanting to shout from the rooftops as well!

You mentioned that you have been doing this alone. I just hope that you have a support system in place because Recovery, as in life, does have some bumpy roads now and then.

You know where to find us!

God Bless,
Judy

Good job Ericka - wait no GREAT job Ericka!! I do hope you'll come back because you might be able to help others (like me - with only 10 days under my belt). Could use all the help I can get, but again, congratulations!!
