AA and working the steps with my sponsor is my saving grace!! I have almost 6 months and you are correct!! One day at a time… A person with 20 years is just as close to that next drink as one with a few days or months. Good luck on this journey😊

Welcome and way to go! I recently joined too, am on day 5. The one day at a time deal is very powerful. One minute at a time when the going is really rough!

Welcome Jason. Sharing is so healing. I think as addicts we feel unheard. I’ve been trying to get sober for 25 years myself. It’s definitely a demon. It goes down like a friend and comes back at you like a demon. Thanks for calling it that. We’re here for you man. Congrats on your new beginning!

Hi @Draggon and welcome to the forum. :wave:

If you have committed to stopping, it is the most important decision of your life. :rainbow: Start with all the support you can get - this forum, AA or other meetings, an outpatient/inpatient program, reading and videos. There is so much out there! But it has to come from within you - as you already know it will not be easy.

Here is a useful thread on getting through early recovery:
