After 40 years of drinking, I truly never thought I would be able to get sober…but here I am. This time something finally clicked and I got over that quit/relapse cycle I was stuck in for years.
My life has changed so much since finding sobriety. I never realized just how incredibly shitty being a drunk made me…physically, emotionally and mentally. I was a slave to that next drink. Who knew life could feel so good? Not this old girl.
Finding this forum when I began this final push was an important part of my journey and I want to thank you all for your honesty, kindness and knowledge and for sharing. I was especially touched by Angie whose wisdom and guidance were so valuable a year ago.
I am incredibly grateful to be sober and living life free. This year has been a true gift.
Congratulations @Sassyrocks I love your energy and wisdom and you have helped me and so many others find health and happiness by sharing your journey. This brought joy to my heart.
Congrats lady! So glad to share this forum with such a strong woman. Love to see you get that 1 year. Can’t wait till I get mine. Bet it sounds awesome rolling off the tongue, “I’ve been sober for a year.”
