Just made 30 days
Just wanted to say its never too late to really give this sober thing a try. 30 days ago i was in the hospital from a near overdose of alcohol and meth. Today i am not that girl. Theres a long road ahead of me, hopefully, but im so happy to be sober right now. My head is clearer, my self esteem is up, my ability to function is better, and my biggest problem is pacing myself. Now that im sober theres so much i want to do! Gym, church, family stuff, side jobs, and heck sleep!

30 days is a huge milestone! It's a great time, also, to spend a little time reflecting and focusing on all the positive things that you've found in sobriety so far.
It's a great point at which to make a conscious re-commitment to sobriety and to spend some time envisioning sober life continuing, getting better and better, becoming deeper, more abundant.
It's a great time to make a few specific commitments to sober actions; what might you do in the NEXT 30 days that would serve to support your continued and deeper sobriety?
Well done. Keep at it!

Nice work LiveLikeGold! You and I have the same date and at 1 month I also agree, I feel so much better today than I did 1 month ago. If you're struggling please don't give up, you'll feel a lot better in as little as 1 month if you hang with it!

Congrats !! I'm at 60 days....or will be by the grace of God in 3 days from today.... I cope by not overwelming myself. I, too, feel like I wanna DO EVERYTHING !!! But I figure..I have the whole rest of my sober life to do that. After all...they tell me its "one day at a time" and we cant do it all in one day

Awesome job!!!! You should join that gym. It’s a great reward to yourself. It’s funny, we must think alike. I joined the gym last week. It is really helping me so much. Let me know if you do. It is so helpful posting here. Your post encourages me. I like seeing there are other people that quit around the same time I did. Congratulations to you!!!!!
