Support please Hi guys i'm looking to go sober as of today & i'm looking for some support and words of encouragement to start that. As we all know the first day is the hardest so please spare a thought for me today. So far this month i've had 7 alcohol free days. But not in a row. I'd like to string together a long run of sobriety. thx |
You can do this Sober having a plan really really helps |
What SW says. A plan is very important. Just don't drink today and start to work on that plan. You can do this! |
It won't be as hard staying sober once you reach the point where you want to be sober more than you want to drink. :) Have a little faith in yourself that you can do this. :hug: |
I can assure you that the more sober days you string together, the easier it will get and the better you will feel! It's worth it! You can do this! |
Welcome!. It really does get better, and SW is giving some excellent advice on starting a plan. Read the information here to get you started. Being sober leads to great things. |
Wishing you well in your plan for sobriety. The only drink you need to worry about,is the first one,stay away from it. |
Welcome, and congratulations on your decision to get sober. Today and tonight, you need to distract yourself when you have the thought of taking a drink. Just worry about the next fifteen minutes of sobriety at a time. If you have to, just worry about the next fifteen seconds at a time. You can do this. There are scores of people on this site who thought that they would never be able to be successful at finding sobriety, but they were. Keep checking back here, and post when you feel like you might be in trouble. There is as much support as you need on this forum. |
Hi and Welcome! There is lots of support here. |

Hi Sober32 :) I am too early in recovery to really have any great advice but there is a lot of support here. I am wishing you the best :) |
Thanks a bunch guys. It's now 6:30pm and I'm getting ready for an early night. I've made it! W00t Day 1 down |
There you go. Do everything you can to go to bed sober tonight. Repeat tomorrow. Hang in there, you can do it! |
Day 2 guys! Wish me strength! Pretty fresh today so far. Low-medium anxiety atm though. |
Somehow missed this post yesterday. Congrats on starting day 2, Sober32. I hope you'll join us in the Class of March 2016 thread here on this same forum. I've found that sharing with others who are also new to recovery is a huge help for my own recovery. Wishing you the best today... |
One day at a time. YOU can do this. :c011: |
You're doing this, Sober. Proud of you for arriving at Day 2. :) |
You can do this! :) I agree with Casey the class of March is fantastic. We would love for you to join us! http://www.soberrecovery.com/forums/...-part-3-a.html |
Welcome back sober32 :) D |
I'll revise my Anxiety level to low! Jumped the gun at medium, was able to have a decent coffee with no increase in anxiety. W00t! Thanks for the support guys. |
