Day 7.... New member...
 

I'm "new" here but I've been lurking for a while.

I'm not ready to go into a lot of detail about my situation yet but i wanted to say thank you all. I've learned a lot here and am currently on day 7... A little "jittery" but so far I've been doing well... Just taking it one day at a time..

:thanks

Welcome!

Good for you on Day 7. :)

Hey raf,

I was a lurker too for ages before posting, glad you did. Congrats on seven days, your first week!

Taking it one day at a time is all you can do - whether it's Day 7 or 1007 - don't give in to temptation and keep strong.

I hope you'll feel free to post more about your story and how you got here in time, if you feel like it. :)

Thanks and I'm sure I will in time. I think right now I just need to know I'm not alone and it is possible.

Nope your sure not alone. Glad to have you with us. :)

Welcome! Glad you posted!

Congrats on day 7! Welcome :)

welcome to SR raf :)

Hi Raf, welcome to SR. Nice place here, you can share as much or as little as you feel like it. You can be upbeat, or depressed, or unsure. You can get educated on recovery methods, or do your own thing and get support either way. You can help others as you're able, and learn something here each day.

Pleased to meet you, raf. This is a wonderful place - and I felt so alone before I found it. My friends here have given me strength, hope, & encouragement. I'm glad you're here with us. Great job on seven sober days! :)

Welcome raf!

Congratulations on your week sober! :a122:

Welcome raf! Great site and great people. Congrats on day 7.

Thanks for the greatings everyone.... Had a rough time last night but managed to stay strong.... Day 8, here we go!!!!

congratulations raf! we are here for you, we care!

Hello day 7 buddy. Oh wait you're on day 8 now good for you. Hope you're sleeping better than I am on day 7.

You can do it! Just take it slowly -- just think "I'm not drinking today. Tomorrow, I don't know. But today, I won't."

Starting too sleep better, having some vivid/strange dreams though also feel like im in a "fog" most of the time.

I'm also fighting with myself. My mindset is: I AM GOING TO DO THIS!!! But out of the blue comes a voice that says "who are you kidding, we both know this isnt going to work"..

Make that mindset bigger than that other voice. Maybe entertain that other voice tomorrow, but don't drink today. Tomorrow will become another today!

Mindset 8 :: Voice 0....

Day 9.... Feeling ok. Still foggy and have a headache. Had a physical yesterday and my labs and everything came back good.... :a122:
