Congratulations on a year. Wonderful! As I was reading your message I wondered if I could copy it and use it when I reach a year. So true, all of it.

Congratulations Firstymer! Great post, I find my experience parallels yours.

Re the mods: it's my understanding that everyone working here at SR works in a voluntary capacity, which makes their work even more awesome.

Congrats on One Year! That's awesome. I couldn't agree with you more- life is so much better sober. It's so hard to believe that when you're starting out but it's so true.
