Day 25. Trying to NOT get over-confident
Day 25. Trying to NOT get over-confident
So today makes 25 straight days of not drinking.
I'm allowing myself to enjoy it for what it is. An accomplishment.
But it's a hurdle I've crossed a couple times before in prior attempts.
Now is the time i need to get extra vigilant though...I'm enjoying many of the perks of soberness now. Sleeping/Eating better.
Looking better.
It does feel different this time because i'm *patched* in to AA. I'm working the steps. I'm in contact with my sponsor daily.
To sum it up. I feel great. And it worries me a little bit. Because this is when the insidious thoughts in the past have crept up on me.
Guess you could say...I'm alert. And i'm on guard.
Thanks for reading. Feels good to post it out!

Staying humble is definitely wise. Overconfidence is what ruined me last time around. That way of thinking lets your av voice creep in, telling you that a beer won't do any harm.
Then it's three days later and you're hanging over a toilet.

Or in my case...waking up in the hospital from a VERY scary Blackout.
