Class of July 2008 Club
I've seen so many who got clean this month I decided to start a new thread for us. I already have a few new friends. Could always use more. We are the Class of July 2008. We all share July 2008 as our starting point. I would like to see all of us keep these dates. I figure this thread can be just one more support network. :ghug A place to check in or to post about how your doing.. Good or bad. Espeacially when it gets slippery. Post about it. Post your sobriety/clean date. My name is Mike. I am an addict. My Clean date is 7-13-2008 I have 9 days today.

Good idea Mikey!
Those who know me call me DC - hence the DreamChaser handle. I'm 7 days sober and my sobriety date is 7/15/08.
Feeling real good about life and enjoying my time with my SR peeps!

This is exactly what Im hoping for. I wanna see us all keep these dates. If you feel an urge or obsession to use or drink, think about this thread. :ghug Most of all, if possible pick up the phone too.
Hey this is a good idea for a thread. Hi I am Felicia and I am an alcoholic. My sobriety date is 7/10/08. Having a pretty hard time right now, but I will not drink today. I should be getting some work done but I am just too lazy. I know that I would feel better if I just worked myself until I fell from exhaustion, then I really wouldnt want to drink, but again, not into it today.

So I was here before, about 2 years ago, but "fell off the wagon"...I started out good for a few weeks but then as the years went by went harder and harder and harder to the bottle. It's not that I've done anything stupid, caused any accidents, or anything like that, but I feel it's JUST AROUND THE CORNER. I spend all day every Monday hungover from the weekend, then just look forward to the weekend so I can get drunk again. I'm realizing that's not a very satisfying life.
This time it may be easier though for a couple reasons...last time I tried to do it alone, without even my wife's help. This time she knows all about it. Also, my friends have changed and I've matured (in most ways) so that I'm not constantly getting invited to bars anymore, but instead hanging out at peoples' homes and going to dinner. There will be some tough times though but I just want not to be "that drunk guy" anymore.

I'm hoping I can get strong before football season...I'd love to go to away games and drive home Sunday not wondering if I need to pull over to vomit! I used to think "how could someone watch football sober"? Now I think, how cool it would be to not be a drunken idiot every game (among other events where I've been a drunken idiot).
