That's awesome least, thanks for remembering me and posting this.

It's been a great two months, devoted totally to my future which will be a sober one. This is only the second time in my life I have gone this long without booze and that was in 1995 during basic training for the military, so moving forward everyday is now new territory. I think the two month mark was and is such an important milestone for me because of this.

I'm really glad I found this forum.

Thanks again.

Thanks everyone for your support.

Thanks to this forum for just being here.

Thanks to James Hetfield for the motivation & inspiration I really needed to get clean and sober.

Thanks to Metallica for writing & recording DEATH MAGNETIC.

Thanks to the TV show Intervention.

And however someone is supposed to thank themselves, I thank ME!!

It does get easier. It does get more normal.

There is life after substance abuse. A better life.

A real life.

You've got it Nicole.

I'm willing to help and support anyone who is willing to help and support themselves because that's what it takes.

In this battle, that's how winning is done.
