This is exactly the person I want to be.

No big story. I haven't had a drink since December 17th, not sure how many days because i'm not counting them anymore. At first I found myself almost obsessing about it, thank goodness that has passed. I am aware that I have a problem, and determined to keep it under control. Shut up AV~!

I have so much energy and feel great! Can't be drinking every other day and taking care of an 11 month old. I'm too old for that. I value the way I feel and the way I take care of my son way more than I value alcohol. My marriage has even vastly improved since I quit drinking. Only good things.

Love this site, I come here everyday as a daily reminder of how I felt about one month ago.

That's great raqbord - congrats on your sober time, too! I'm a lot more patient and positive as a mom since I've gotten sober. I don't have little ones anymore, but I remember!

Hi Raqboard,

Glad to hear things are going well. It can be so difficult in the early days, the obsession mood swings and the AV.

Good for you

raqbord,
I'm happy that you are feeling so good. It's nice to be reminded of the good things about sobriety! It does help so much.
