by the time they got to AAAA they realised the error of their ways but there was no going back.

Hi there!
I’m doing fine, thank’s for asking @zzz and @050Nl
Enjoying my holiday @home
Catched these funny numbers while entering here

Checking in, up really early. As I get near six months of no drinking I’m thinking about how this happened, I.e., how did I go from feeling it was more or less impossible to get through an evening without at least a couple of drinks, to managing it for a lot of evenings. One day at a time is a really useful thought. Plus, when I’ve quit before, I thought of it as temporary deprivation. During pregnancies, I quit but started back up, it didn’t occur to me not to. Now I think of drinking as something mostly harmful to me. I’m thinking about how to transition to the next phase, how to make sure I keep learning and being actively engaged in figuring out how to be more present, less inclined to numb feelings (which you can do without drinking too).

Have a good day all. Clean and sober. Love from Amsterdam. @Flamestar congrats Maartje! Enjoy the ride! @SoberWalker Happy to see you Claudia.

Hello folks well day 6 10hours is it day 7 it’s a week since I last drank but couldn’t quite get my time right but I’ll wait till it says 7 till I get my week hehe. I had my first wobble yesterday got cravings thought I’d mayb have a little drink and its cos my work have added me to a group chat and all they were on about is how much they are drinking in this lockdown and how they need to meet up and drink…wasnt good but I stayed strong put the notifications on ignore and stayed sober…this morning I Did around a 5k jog with my beautiful dogs today I have a 8year old terrier cross she is my profile pic I’ve had her 6years as a rescue we have jogged together for about 2 yrs now mayb 3 she is great a very loving loyal dog who follows my lead and we adore each other… I have a sprocker spaniel now also, she is only 2 almost 3 we have had her around a year and we adore each other but she is so strong on the lead and crazy jogging with her looks like I’m a sled been pulled along it must look hilarious I love them both to bits but what a contrast lol. Peace out people xx

Keep working on passing up on those cravings. It is the first drink that causes the most damage.

Starting over at Day 6 after an epic relapse. So ashamed. I had made it to almost 5 months last year and this year was on my way to 100 days. What made me think I could drink after so many terrible incidences, each one just worse than the last?

[GVLNative]

@Sam7
I am in the same boat after 120 days. I am on day 4.
I am doubling down on meetings and performing a lot of introspection.
Hang in there…go easy on yourself…we got this!!!

I’ve set my sights on November which will be approx. 6 months from now.
