Hi..just joined this forum hoping tjis may help. Ive been sober for 6 years until 2011 but have been struggling for the past 2 years. I stsrted drinking almost daily since last summer. I really want to be done bevsuse I know how great sobriety csn be. Im five days without a drink snd yrying to let go of thosr crappy, self destructive feelings. I know it will get better but its still hard. Just wanted to say hi.

Hi, Tough. You sure have come to the right place. Congrats on making the decision—and on getting through those first five days!

I'm glad you already know it gets better. Maybe give yourself room to feel crappy for a while? It's a big change, right down to our biochemistry. I've never been lower than when I quit. But now I look back and think, Wow, that was actually a shining moment. That was when I started to turn it all around.

Congrats again—glad you found SR!
