17 days - New Track Record
Hey all... Today is 17 days for me. I've not gone this long since I was 17 years old. I feel so much better it's crazy. It's funny, when you don't drink poison 3 to 4 times a week you feel better and your emotions are more in check... who'd of known...

Best of luck guys.

I am going on Day 16 myself and I am starting to feel "normal." I never thought normal would feel so good. Congrats.

That is wonderful!
It is amazing.
If you aren't drinking all the time, you tell yourself that it isn't affecting you ALL the timje. Once you get sober, it is AMAZING how much better you feel 24/7!
Keep it going!!!

I hope and pray this is day 1 for me. I am terrified of withdrawals. I have no health insurance so cannot see a doctor. Anyone got any advice?
