This account is ancient. Back after a 2 year bender.

Day 6. I can't believe I still remembered the password to this account from so long ago. Looks like my last post was about 2 years ago writing about me being 6 days sober back then as well. I've been on a daily drinking-to-blackout regimen ever since then.

I had a seizure 7 days ago while I had to go cold turkey for a work retreat trip. It sucked really bad... and gave me a much needed kick in the ass to stop doing this to myself.

I remember you mwstylee - I'm sorry about the seizure and the 2 years out there but it's really good you made it back.

Have you got any kind of recovery plan?

Hi mwstylee,

I'm a Midwesterner myself, hailing from the beautiful state of Wisconsin.
Also on day 6 after a kick in the ass.
Seems you and I have been chasing each other around the block.

Wanna sit on the stoop with me and take a breather for awhile?

You can have reasons, or you can have results, but you can't have both.

Hi, nice to meet you. I'm on my 7th day sober. I had a seizure once, too. Terrifying, isn't it?

So, what are you going to do to protect yourself against this happening again, and make sure your sober stretch keeps going this time?

I remember you, mwstylee. It's good to see you back again. I did the same as you after over a year sober. Took awhile to make it back. So glad you are back with us.
