@Angelicasapp you are taking very good steps!
Thanks for sharing and keep going. Good work!
Great to hear it! If you are giving the AA route a try, have you thought about doing the steps? It sounds a bit mystical, but they can be taken as a practical way to structure your life. They are based on having a higher power, and depending on your AA group, that can be more Christian style God, or something that fits your life view. I
Yes I’m planning on working the program. Just going to get more comfortable since it’s only my 4th day and hopefully find a sponsor I’m religious so it fits
You’re doing amazing! The first time i got sober AA was such a huge support. I did 90 meetings in 90 days and the lessons i learned were massive and have stuck with me to this day. I haven’t been perfect since then due to my over confidence and choosing to ignore everything i had learned. But having the knowledge i learned then and still using meetings to ground me and remind me of the dangers of addiction has always provided me a way back to sobriety. It’s up to me to continually do the work.
Take the meetings at a pace that’s right for you. It took me a while to start sharing, but once i did the meetings took on a whole different feel and were much more helpful for me, theraputic.
Just keep working your program one day at a time, every day, and you will be successful. Keep up the good work!!
Great! Hope you find a sponsor that suits you when the time is right.
Thank you
Congratulations on road to sobriety. My advice is to attend as many meetings as you can.
So today makes the end of day 7. I feel a lot better then I did one week ago. On day one I could barely stand up dripping in sweat when I slept, anxiety so horrible and thoughts of not wanting to be alive. I can’t tell u how many times I’ve been through these withdrawals. I don’t ever want to feel that way again. Today I feel good I know I have a lot of work to be done, but I’m greatful to be at one week I don’t think I would make it through another bender mentally. Gunna keep doing meetings everyday and do everything I can to remain sober. Rant over thanks for listening.
Congratulations on a full week!
Congratulations!!! Day 7 is a big achievement! You’ve got this!
Way to go!!! 1 week milestone .
Keep up the amazing work
Congrats! One full week for me also. I feel so much better. Let is never go backward.
8 days today. Not much to share but I made it to 8.
That’s enough! Congrats!
Congratulations on your milestone. Keep it up.
Today is 9 days. Finally over withdrawals so now it’s time to get my life back in order. I need a new job and too look for a new place to live but I’m trying to take it easy because I don’t want to overwhelm myself. I tend to drink when I’m stress out and try to do everything at once. Taking baby steps and making sure my sobriety comes first before everything! Whatever happens at least I’ll be sober and it will be easier to deal with then getting drunk and making everything worse. One of my close friends has been sober for 10 months and I asked for her to be my sponsor but her sponsor said she shouldn’t. That was kinda a bummer because I was looking forward to talking and working through it with someone I was comfortable with but I guess everything happens for a reason. I’ll keep looking for a sponsor and start my work when I find one. Going to meetings daily and I haven’t even thought about drinking it still discust me. Rant over thanks for listening.
