4 weeks!
As of tomorrow and 1 month 2 days later on the 10th. It kind of creeps up on you but yea. 3 weeks ago 1 month seemed like an impossible achievement. I'm still spending money from 2 weeks ago. Saved a good $400 so far. I realized that other than gas and lunch(which I dont need now that I am at home not working) alcohol was about the only thing I spent money on. Life is good. Thanks SR!
I know the feeling. After going years getting high every night, a month seems so unlikely. And then one day you are there, and even though you did it, there's still that feeling that it is unlikely. A year is the same way, even though it's just another 11 of those months, and far easier than the first. You see it coming. You know you can do it, but when it happens, there's something still hard to believe about it. Intellectually, you know you did it, but your subconscious is still working on the assumptions from a year ago. Eventually, the two parts of your mind come into sync, and it's not a big deal, at least measuring length isn't so much. But you will never quit appreciating your sobriety. At least as I see it.
