Mizzuno Update :)

Hey All.
Ive been a bit busy this last month. I turned 5 months sober on the 18th.

Everything in my life is going really well. I have a daily routine that is keeping me grounded and feeling like I have a FULL life.

I started a new job that allows for creativity and a newness everyday. I get to think outside of the box and work with a lot of people who are quite amazing.

I am free these days of any desire to drink. I thought of this last night while sitting outside. I honestly don't have any needs or wants to partake of alcohol. Being that I am only 5 months sober, I have to remember that the desire or idea can creep in at any time. Stress can lead me to thinking sideways, and so I combat any life stresses with exercise and nutrition.

I don't see myself slipping in thought or thinking that I can have "one" drink. Drinking is off the table no matter what. I cant afford to lose clarity or to lose the momentum that I have gained. What became crucial for me when I got sober was my entire well being. Alcohol was and will turn this woman into a mess.

Just keep moving forward and keep your eye on the prize. The prize being mental, emotional, physical and spiritual well being.

I am so thankful for this forum and all people who are here to help others. There is goodness in this world.

Oh My Dear Mizzuno,

How I have missed you!!!

I am so very glad to see you and to hear the news of your 5 months. Wonderful!

I've got 11 days now and it seems I am operating on the same tenets as you are. Full schedule, engagement, vigilance. I'm posting over in the Alcoholism forum - pop over for the full update.
