The past few days have been a bit tough, I'm a person that drinks out of boredom.

But something was telling me just to give up, just to come back to the drink. Either way i did not cave in, and i continue to keep going forward.

I drank out of boredom too. Well I always had a reason in my head to justify my drinking that I thought made sense to me haha. Good job not giving in!

The scariest thing for me is that I have met every significant other I have ever had in a drinking environment, then go through cycles where I dont drink because I am dependant on my relationship to keep me out of the night life. It is a sad way to live because every time the relationship ends I end up going back to square -2 meaning it only get worse every time.

I guess it is fear of being alone or something, or the fear of missing out on my youth.

26 here.

Hi everyone! Day # 24 here. Yesterday was tough but I stayed sober YAY!

It was the first time to be with drinking sisters. They support my sobriety, but I admit it was different (and hard) to watch them drink. But my drinking problem isn't their problem, it's MY problem.

Hope everyone has a peaceful, sober day

Congrats on staying sober betterlife! I was able to survive Xmas sober as well. I woke up this morning and actually remembered a holiday for the first time in 10yrs, it's a pretty good feeling. Making it thru Xmas was huge for me being that it was a holiday surrounded by booze and still pretty new on day 10 today.

christmas was pretty easy for me, so many people to talk to and what not. It was not a trigger for me at all.

I believe i am on day 80 exactly today, pretty solid feeling

Congrats to everyone for staying sober,

I quit after spending my 29th birthday drinking cider and reading a book in a pub totally alone. Almost five months ago now.
