Still going strong :)
 

Hi all

Not posted on here for a week or so, but I've been lurking in the background.

I'm doing a 12 week intensive program at the moment so that's kind of taken up all of my time at the moment which I guess is a good thing! Made new friends and found a lot of support, which again can only be positive.

15 days without a drink now, and I feel really good physically and I'm feeling stronger each day psychologically. I had a meeting with my key worker today and she said she didn't recognise me, and couldn't get over how much better I looked than when she saw me 2 weeks ago. Just goes to show - people DO notice, and she didn't even know I was doing the 12 week program!

Anyway, just touching base and I hope everyone is going strong, keeping busy and finding help where and when they need it.

Take care all!
:D

I'm really glad to hear you're doing well.

Thank you for checking in, airyfairy!

I'm happy to hear you're doing well.

Keep up the great work. Congratulations on 15 days!! :)

Congratulations on 15 days! I am glad you are doing so well. :c011:

Awesome work! I can relate, I'm on day 19 and feeling quietly optimistic this time. Trying not to give into feelings of ecstasy though as I know that can be dangerous. Here's to another day sober and happy!

It's great to hear that you are doing so well, airyfairy.

Sobriety and recovery get better and better; stick with them!!!!

Thanks everyone!
I feel a lot calmer and more positive in myself. I believe I can do this because I WANT to. No other reason. So for now I just take each day as it comes and in all honesty thoughts of drinking for now have rarely entered my head and if they have, I've got coping strategies at hand to deal with those situations.
Hope everyone is doing well and feeling happy. Looking forward to checking in at the end of the week when it'll be 3 weeks which is a massive deal for me.
Take care!

Congrats on 15 (or maybe 16 now) days airyfairy :)

Congrats on over two weeks sober! :) Keep going, it gets better. :)

Great job
 

You will make it be strong that's so owsome. Just left treatment I've got 12 days and isn't it nice to be free of the dark side now clear headed. Sobriety is something to be thankful of everyday you deserve it we all do.

Such great news! Come and visit us in the June thread sometime, and keep up the amazing work! :)

Waiting
 

Been waiting for 5 hrs in a town I'm not from to ride a bus home thank goodness I'm sober I'm not even mad and I'm next door to a bar so I ran in to the gas station to get a pepsi and a protein bar. I love being able to think logically. I feel so at peace!

Keep up the good work

Hey all - woohoo 21 days sober :D

Sorry I've not been around much - been so busy cramming stuff into my day that I've not had much time to go online.

Hope you're all well! :)

Grats on 3 weeks AF

Well done! 3 weeks is fantastic~

Congratulations on three weeks, that is fantastic. You sound very positive, I'm glad your program has been such a good experience so far.
