Congratulations, and I agree with you. Alcohol is a burden on our lives.

Congratulations, Newpage! That's a wonderful accomplishment.

These milestones are posted every day here on SR. I hope that our new friends take great inspiration from that fact.

I think the big difference between year one and year 2 is that I just felt better physically....also I don't think about drinking very much at all.
No cravings. I am relieved and happy to be sober, and have NO desire to go back.
I am not as nervous about failing.....The first year I had a lot of fear that alcohol would somehow make me drink it!

Good luck to you, it really just keeps getting better!!!!

Thank you to everyone for your help and advice along the way. I don't post much, but I do a lot of reading, and it really helps!

To everyone that is new to this and struggling, do yourself the biggest favor possible and give every ounce of your energy to your quit! Do whatever it takes! NEVER give in to that nasty alcoholic voice....
There is nothing better than being FREE!

Amazing!! Congratulations!
