30 days!!!

I never thought I would say this, but I am on day 30. These last few days in particular have been challenging to say the least - but as hard as it is I'm proud to be sober. I never thought it was possible, and I'm amazed that I'm doing it.

I'm almost scared to get too excited about it - does anyone have any suggestions on how to celebrate?

CONGRATULATIONS
here's a start to your celebrations! You must feel chuffed. I am very happy for you. Doing day four here and hoping to add them up as nicely as you are.

Have a proud and happy day
Vee

Thanks Vee.

And thanks everyone here. I couldn't have done it without all the support. Through all the panic attacks and confused thoughts I'm grateful I have somewhere to come.

I celebrate my sobriety by giving my dogs a special treat! Like a fresh beef bone or a nice long walk to 'check their peemail'. They love my celebrations!


Congrats on your thirty days and many more sober days to come!

Congratulations Lily

I'm not really a big one for celebrating - maybe just think of something you like to do and do it, or something you'd like to have and buy it?

30 days is awesome! Congratulations Lilly! The ways I celebrate: carry-out from a nice restaurant, or letting myself sleep in (without a hangover! aahhh....) Keep up the good work!

Congrats Lilly - 30 days is awesome!!

I'm not one for celebrating either, but I do think a massage goes down quite well for any occasion

I think the best present you can give yourself is continued sobriety

chat soon x

Great Job Lilly. I tried figuring how much cash I had saved from not drinking and that was nice treat. Keep up the good work.
