Another one 2 weeks sober!
 

Here in the UK, there is a thing called sober October, and Im on it. Started doing dry January 4 years ago & have successfully done it but drank seven days a week in-between treble the daily allowance. So this year will be the most sober year I will have had since I was 16. Im 54 now. Had diabetes since early 30,s due to excessive drinking . Need to stop for good! Hopefully will make to the end of the month, then my next goal is 40 days & 40 nights! Feeling great now. Blood sugar normal & halved my insulin & lost weight, got to keep going.....

Congrats on the two weeks so far. Is there something cute to call next month? Something like Never (drinking) November?

Your health will get better if you never drink again. :hug:

Congratulations Willfromtheuk on two weeks, that’s awesome! You’re already reaping the benefits healthwise, and it can only gat better. Alcohol is a neurotoxin that affects, adversely, every part of the body. I know for sure that my body breathed a sigh of relief and started putting its energies into positively repairing and recovering, instead of just dealing with the previous days onslaught damage caused by the alcohol/toxin.

I like it! Never drinking in November!

With my past drinking habits I will go for “ Remember November”. All of it. Seven months sober, my first sober October of my adult life, I think.

Welcome back Will :)

Hey Will, welcome and congrats on your 2 weeks. I am in the UK too. I never, ever was able to complete Dry Jan or Stoptober. I just couldn't go a WHOLE MONTH without alcohol. I have now been sober 18 months ☺️☺️ one day at a time.

Keep going. If I can do this you can too

🙏❤
