Nine Months Sober Today

Thank you, SR friends, for being the only people in my life who truly "get it". My life and my self worth/self esteem have never been better. The only tough times for me these days are "special occasions." I am looking forward to the year of "firsts" to be over. Thinking the drink through to the end and knowing that cravings rarely last longer than an hour, really works for me. Again, thank you for being so honest and inspiring.

Congrats DD....been lovely sharing the journey with you. Thank you for really openly discussing all difficult and raw issues, the family of origin stuff....all that complicated stuff that our drinking became entwined with.

I've probably not said it directly to you, but yes, you've helped identify some things for me and I'm really grateful to have you around.

Thanks honey.xx
