8 Days in and Im done
With the "serial quitting"! Id quit for days - once to 82 days...THIS TIME is the one.
The other quits were dress rehearsals.. a
When your resolve looks DOWN to alcohol and says Bye Bye- there's the door....then staying sober / quit becomes nearly effortless. (as opposed to using all "my might" to stand up against a massive foe)
Im REALLY enjoying this new found clarity, calm, dull sense of freedom thats growing.
A made up mind is the key-
Merry Christmas !!!

That is great, livingnow! As you likely know, your chances for a successful sobriety are much increased when you work a program. Dee's stickie about recovery plans is very informative in that regard. Peace.

Thank you Maudcat.
Me and organized "programs" dont work well together
Im learning who I am late in life- But not too late! "Programs" program us. I need to operate freely this time. Im here posting, reading - this is an awesome place for like minded souls to share.
Peace.

congrats livingnow! Lots of people consider themselves self-recovered...meaning without a formal program. You can certainly live free by your own choice in ending your addiction. Lots of us have.
Feels good, doesn't it?

Awareness, motivation, commitment - check.
Honesty, drive, sober- in place.
Countdown, lift off happening. Safe launch.
