25 Days
Just checking in!
25 days sober today! Not missing the bottle in any way shape or form this time.
I got myself a second job to make some more money along with my own little business and am well on my way to moving on and moving out!
My "boyfriend" (we are living together for now but not together) is the worst, always talking about beer and how he wishes he had some ugh so inconsiderate, pretty sure he does it on purpose. Anyways! I am seeing things pretty clearly now and am saving up to move out of this toxic household and be happy with just myself and my daughter
It has been pretty up and down emotionally but that's to be expected considering the situation I am in. Just making me stronger!
Stay sober folks! Even in 25 short days things can drastically turn themselves around

Great job! Stay strong. Sometimes guys don't grow up as fast as women, and sometimes they never do. And of course with your daughter you need to be responsible. Keep up the good work, 25 days is fantastic!

Congratulations on the 25 days achieved despite your boyfriend’s attempts to sabotage you. I’m sure the move will provide you with an entirely new lease on life and will be vey good for sobriety and for reshaping a wonderful future for yourself and your daughter.

25 days is amazing. You should be proud. It also sounds like your body and mind are really responding to the absence of alcohol. Complete the process of extricating yourself from the silly bloke that you currently live with, and then onward and upward!!! Not knowing anything else about your situation, my humble opinion is that your daughter deserves you all to herself for the coming years.

Congratulations on 25 days Sweetd .
Don't want to sound negative, but sometimes drinkers do try to sabotage us, even if unconsciously.
Someone once said to me, "just drink more slowly." Slow is a relative term for the likes of me.
Stay strong. You're winning.

Congratulations on your sobriety. And since you mentioned it, I cut ties with one life long friend to insure my sobriety. I'm not sure it was necessary, but I still think it was a good decision, because I wasn't going to take any chances. I maintained relationships with other friends, but this one guy had a long history of encouraging me to drink, and I wasn't going to have that issue in my recovery. My departure was not abrupt or hostile, and I still have a cordial relationship with him, but we just don't spend time with each other.
