Day 1
Hey everyone, I've been reading posts on here for a while. Day one for me is today. Just passed the 24 hour mark at 8 tonight! Yea! I know it will get worse before it gets better. But as for now I'm holding my own! Think I have found the right place.

Congratulations on day 1!
Just try and keep a positive attitude...it definitely can get difficult at times but if you read some of the posts by people who have been sober for a long while - it does get better.
Welcome to SR.

congrats on day 3.
most "earth people" wouldnt think that sounds like an accomplishment but I truly know it is.
When the monster starts provoking you, tell him that you are heading for Day 4 and do not want him bothering you right now. He can bug you when you are stronger

Aim high
