Update ❤
Morning /Evening everyone😍
I'm 112 days sober today !!!!
On the 27th of December 2017 I decided I had finally come to the end of the road regarding my drinking!!!
This was the first time I had ever been serious about quitting ..I knew I couldn't continue pouring wine down my throat night after night..Everyday merged into one big hangover and I knew I was crashlanding big time !!
It was hard but I have a husband and 3 kids
My daughter is 26 my son is 24 and my baby girl is 9 ...
I rode out the cravings by posting on here and the people who helped me I will be eternally grateful to
My family are amazing as are my closest friends ...
Today I'm so thankful I stayed on this road of sobriety I know I'm early days but almost 4 and a half months is so huge to me !!
I feel alive and happy (genuinely happy )
But most of all I feel free ...I don't take it for granted I thank God every night I've made it another day ...
I love waking up every morning now
Everything I see is through brand new eyes
I do have bad moments an the odd bad day but I want this so badly I'll fight with every breath in my body to get it ...
I try and stay positive as negativey only brings me down ...
I don't need Alcohol nor do I want Alcohol to be a part of my life anymore so I ended our relationship
Have a great day guys
Cara ❤

Hi Cara,
WOW!!! Congratulations! 112 days is awesome. You sound amazing and bubbly and fresh and happy. I am smiling reading your post.
I too, like you, had that moment of clarity when I knew I was done with drinking. I was just killing myself slowly, slitting my wrists (sorry, bit graphic!) would have been a quicker and less painful way to die.
I am only 3 weeks in but already I feel more alive than I have in years and reading your post today just reinforces that.
Thank you for sharing and keep up the good work!

Hiya Cara,
Just to say Thank you for such a lovely positive up lifting post !
It certainly gives me strength & hope that there is light at the end of the tunnel !
I'm 75 days in & although there have been some damn hard tough black days ..the days which are good make it all worth while.
Having a loving family & two beautiful kids ..is really my inspiration to get my act together x
