Day 15

So I made it through to day 15 with no alcohol or cigarettes and feel great physically! Last night was a pretty normal night until something triggered a thought from my past and I started thinking about how bad off I really was and all of the people that Ive hurt not to mention the countless bridges that ive burned. I am sure all of these things are coming back now because I never actually worked through them when they were an issue. I was always quick to have a drink or 30 on a bad day and always felt the need to celebrate after a good one. (same end result) I do have to say this though, these feelings of regret and sorrow DONT make me want to drink! If anything they make me want to never drink again. Its crazy to think that I actually lost complete touch with who I was over the years...

One day at a time is really the best thing I've ever heard,the past is gone and there's no guarantee for tomorrow ,I lived in the past for so long but it's useless. Just keep at it one day at a time,good luck to you!!!!!😄

Hi Ironman. You need to give yourself a huge pat on the back. Keep coming back for the words of encouragement. You will get plenty of that here.

Way to go! Day 5 here with no cigarettes or alcohol and I feel scared about becoming who I really am but I am ready to stop being artificial and miserable. I have a long way to go but I know I don't want to return to drinking. Congrats on 15 days!
