I can’t believe I am 458 days sober today! I can’t believe how normal my life became to be! I am very happy for myself!
I’ll never stop being grateful for the decission I made 1 year and 3 months ago. It was the best decission ever and I haven’t regret it since.
Sobriety is beautiful, amazing, powerful and better than I could have ever imagine. I would never go back to that darkness of drinking time. There was nothing good for me…
Today I am a different person and today I have a choice who I want to be. It is magical. It is miracle of life
I really love what it says. I forgave myself everything and I take it as a part of my journey. As drunk I did many mistakes and stupid things. But I must accept it. Fortunately it no longer describes my personality and that’s what matters the most
Welcome here. I hope that you’re going to love this amazing journey and it will motivate you to stay on the path of sobriety
Would you like to share something about yourself?
Congratulations.
I’m not far behind you in sobriety, I have 449 days. It also looks like we were both born in '88. We both have a whole life ahead of us and doing it sober is so much better. Take care and remember to share your smile.
Hello Suzanne!
Yes, I was born in July '88 and I started drinking about age 15-16 until August '19. As many of us I had no idea about having issue for most of my drinking period. I couldn’t see the difference between normal drinkers and me and you know, I surrounded myself mainly with people who also had/have a drinking problem…
You’re right, I sometimes think “What a waste of time! Why nobody didn’t tell me that what I do is not ok?” Although it’s lie because some people were telling me but I obviously never listened
But then I see other people who stopped drinking and they stopped far away beyond my age. I am blessed. I am blessed because I still have over a half of life in front of me (god bless me) and I am enjoying it too. It’s not that I would finally put the drink down and live every day of my life in some kind of battle, fighting cravings, avoiding triggers, not drinking but having the idea of it in my head for 24hours, using my willpower to resist… I kinda admire these people because I couldn’t do it this way. It’s torture.
So I was reborn in last year August and since then I am living much better life! I am finally happy and freedom. Very freedom! In my body and in my mind I’m glad that somebody else experiences the same I can imagine nothing better than sober life for myself.
The 16 years long experience was tough one and very dark but now it’s getting paid. Because unlike normal people I know the difference between hell and life and so I’ll always choose life
I am strong, confident and cured
