A month just like that

Hi everyone and i hope your all doing well ,im a month sober today and im doing great ,ive stopped letting myself from entertaining those thoughts of just one and how it will be only one or one night ,i still get fleeting thoughts, dreams ,but i have accepted that if i open the door just even a little bit everything ive worked towards will be lost and i will be back to the beginning yet again ,and i dont want that anymore ,im feeling good im feeling determined, ive got this i want sobriety more than anything its took up so many years of my life i want freedom peace to stop this inner battle with myself

Congratulations! When you get some time away from your drug of choice, which was alcohol, often times you’re able to be so happy about it and so grateful. It’s good to see you in that place. It’s a freedom that you don’t know until you have it. Huge congrats!

It’s a good feeling when we can finally acknowledge that “just one” drink really isn’t worth it!

Congratulations!!! That is such a huge accomplishment and you should be incredibly proud!
You’re right - there is no such thing as “just 1 drink” - good that you recognize that. I’m 1 year tomorrow and I can say it just keeps getting better. Great job!
