It feels like a battle but soldiering through...
 
Finding it excruciatingly hard but keeping my head down and soldiering through. 15 days sober, when I get through today I'll be ok for another day.

Well done, I think you have the groove that works best, one day at a time.

Welcome Invisible Frank!

One day at a time -- one minute sometimes!

Just keep pushing through. I promise it gets better. I'm over 4 months in and remember day 15 and all moments in the beginning. It's a dog fight and the addiction will do everything to beat you. Remember it too shall pass and believe that life sober is a great way to live. Hang in there and keep counting the days! You can do it!

LiaAc 12-14-2013 08:24 PM

Well done, Frank. I'm at the same day count you are, so welcome to the Fifteen Club. Tomorrow, 16....and 17.....don't give up!

Excellent! If you can make 15 days you CAN make 30. Once you've made 30 you can definitely make 90. And once you make 90 you can do a year. By then your life will have changed in many, many ways.

Hi and welcome. You have already done a lot of work. The first 2weeks are very tough IM0. It gets better and easier.

FLBeachGuy 12-15-2013 04:38 AM

The first two weeks are rough, as already said. I
Hit Paws after about 2 weeks and during a difficult time in my life. Please read up on PAWS if you haven't already. The emotional and psychological withdraws can be tough. With all these feelings, just know that they will pass with time and it's only temporary. Be kind to yourself.
