DarkStranger

Thank you so much again, everyone, for your very supportive replies.

Wow, Zebra1275, your relapse after 5 and a half years sober sounds rough! I'm so glad to read that you're now almost at 11 years of sobriety - that is fantastic!

Hey everyone, just checking in! I'm twelve days sober again and it feels great!

Fantastic Dark Stranger.. almost two weeks. It is just a mental game at this point, as you know. Please remain vigilant for that sneaky AV - it got me after more than 3 years. Many have found AVRT a way to say no once and for all. Keep up the good work!

DarkStranger

Thanks, everyone!

Yup, I was sober for 5 years and 2 months before my recent few relapses - I never dreamed that I would drink alcohol again. It just shows that you have to stay vigilant always and never become complacent.

I'm two weeks' sober again now and feeling great! Thanks for all the support, guys and gals.

Hey everyone,

Just a quick update - I'm still sober! I've been sober again now since December 4th 2020.

I'm sorry that I've not been around much. I've got a lot going on in real life.

Hope everyone had a nice (and sober) Christmas (if you celebrate Christmas).

Good job! But don't be a stranger, Stranger, haha. It really helps to stay somewhat active here, as I found out.

Keep it going DS!

Advbike has a good point - please keep reading and posting if you can. You never know who you'll help and it can't hurt to have the extra support this early in your recovery. Take care!!
