Well, 502 actually but I didnt realise til now since I dont really count days as I go anymore. In the early days I practically counted every second, as time went painfully slowly.
So many attempts, so many day ones, so many regrets and so much pain. I never thought I could do it but i never gave up trying.
I have absolutely no desire to drink except for on the odd occasion it will surprise me, so I always have to stay active and vigilant in my sobriety, no matter how secure I feel.

Congrats, that's fantastic! It is surely the most liberating thing to be out of the grips of this addiction, when we finally have a sense that it's over.

I’ll add my congratulations and best wishes for continued sobriety from something that really did wreck my life in so many ways.

Congratulations !!! Your post is so inspiring, as someone who has had more day ones than I can count. Going on 4.5 months now, and stories like yours show me the road ahead.

Congrats on 502 days sober!!

AwkwardKitty

congrats on your sober time, Grateful.
I like to read my post history here from time to time, theres several day one posts. Reminds me why I never want to go back there...the more distance you have from alcohol, the easier it can be to forget the reality of that pain...always good to cling on to that.

I like your style, AK. Out of the woods but cautious.

Congrats. After 2000 days I still have cravings and triggers, but not intense, more like thoughts, and it serves as a reminder to always stay vigilant. I think it’s similar to going to meetings and helping others. You have to keep working it. My many day ones aren’t as raw but I still recall the shame and disgust I had for myself. But I think the trick is to keep trying. Like when someone says I only have two days I know those two days are so much harder than my next two months. So it’s a HUGE accomplishment. Keep up the great work.
