8 months

So its 8 months. Life has never been better as an adult. I cannot imagine a time or situation where I would ever imagine drinking again. SR has helped me a lot with this. In the beginning I had some random thoughts about drinking and they lasted for a bit. Now, if I ever get one, i refer to the thoughts and experiences of people posting here and it helps me think things through. The good uplifting posts and the terrible experiences that most of us have been through puts things in perspective. I wish I knew a long time ago that so many people were going through the same things as I was. Now if I can get through this fun Bobby phase I'm going through things will be even better. Anyway thank you for everything and sorry for this boring post.

Fun Bobby! Lol. I remember that episode.

It takes a while to get comfortable in your own skin sober.

The fact that you joked about fun Bobby tells me you are anything but boring.

Congrats and keep going!

Congrats, Accord1. Really great to hear you reached eight months.

Eight months was when I sort of realized that I wasn't anxious 24/7 any more.

Just every-now-and-then.

Congrats on 8 months.

Fun Bobby. My daughter loves friends. I was a little too old for it, even when it was new, but I like it now. I thought it was 'immature' when it was originally airing. And I never watched TV....too busy with work. Ah how times have changed. Now I'm never work, too busy with TV. Oh man, that's sad.

thank you for responding. August I too was a 90s teen. Last great decade. Oh wait everyone says that. Bimini, eight months ago my anxiety was crippling. Sometimes felt like my heart would beat out of my chest. Now, many of the things that would have nearly killed me mentally are dealt with rationally, because I can actually think clearly and not worry about something terrible I have done. A whole new world. And there is nothing wrong with not working and watching tv. (In moderation!) Have a splendid weekend all!!
