I almost have 30 days sober and am looking forward to a sober life. I've heard great things from people that have used soberrecovery.com and how it has helped them change their lives. I applaud everyone who is on the staying clean wagon

Well done on thirty days. They are often seen as the most difficult to get over. I hope you are beginning to feel the benefits of sobriety and how good it feels every morning to wake up hangover free!! Best of luck

30 days is such a milestone for all of our paths to sobriety. Day one, week one, month one, and year one all are the brass rings we use to count our distance from the disgrace and despair of the alcoholic. Quibbling terms doesn't change that. An alcoholic by any other name, is still an alcoholic.
30 days says you can if you will.

Life doesn't get better and better the longer you're sober, you do!

Welcome! Congratulations on one month! Sometimes in AA,the one month chip is referred to as the "blood chip" since getting those first 30 days can be rough.
