HAPPY new Year to all.
My 2nd sober NY that feels so good, and to celebrate I am going river swimming this morning. Its unseasonably warm here at 15c so be good not to be freezing in water. As I continue my celebrations I am heading to a beach in Norfolk 50 miles away for 1 night just me and dog. Last beach walk, time to relax and reflect before my return to work Tuesday.

Wishing each of us the strength and hope for a brighter future to be passed over with gentle transition as we start a brand New Year. Thank you all for your wisdom and honesty, you are all my lifeline to sobriety and I thank you all
Thank you, Claudia. Glad to have another year here with you and all these sober peeps!
Here’s to a sober New Year Everyone.
Love you guys.
And to you Eric , onwards and upwards thank you for all your support
Happy New year everyone! I had mine on the couch with my partner, couple of AF beers and films. Glad to have got though this holiday period still sober in the mountain of alcohol that’s thrown towards you from all angles!! Sober life is the only one for me. Hope everyone has a great day. I’m on 332 days
Checking in sober on the first day of 2022. The morning of day 363 for me. My first ever hangover free New Year’s Day as an adult.
Delighted to read all of the milestones. This really is an inspirational place, without which I would not be sober now.
Excited to have a bash at 2022 with you all, and hopeful that it can be a better year for all of us.
Have a great sober day, wherever you are.
Amazing congrats Claudia
Thank you!
And for the walking, I did even better 2500 km/1553 miles in 2021
Walking in nature was healing and still is, going to remain doing that in 2022.
Happy new year Marie!
Thank you very much
Today I am 30 days sober and I feel very relieved and especially grateful I made it through New Years Eve without drinking. It feels great to start into the day with a clear head and a calm mind. I couldn’t have done it without you and the safe and insightful place this community provides. Thank you all!
Happy new year everyone. Let’s make 2022 a good one!
Day 102 checking in odaat happy newyear everyone
Congratulations on 1200 days Claudia!
Same feelings over here! Relieved the holidays are over, I made it through without a drop and without struggling too much, thankful for the support of this group!
Checking in without hangover. It means i stayed sober for which i’m glad. I did allow myself to indulge on all the snacks and i feel puffy and bloated because of it. Although i stayed sober, i don’t feel particularly happy. I did think a lot about drinking, i got upset a lot, which i took out on my mother on several moments, for that i feel bad. I need to work on my anger.
I feel relieved holidays are over and that in a few days i will return to portugal and return to work and daily routine. I never thought i could ever say that, to be glad to go back to work. But i am, i’m looking forward to it.
This community is great. You all inspire me so much with your stories and milestones. I don’t post so much but i read a lot. It’s very helpful, so much wisdom and kindness. It’s the opposite of all other social media with the shouting, aggression, competitiveness. Here it’s all about support. It’s great, thank you all!
All the best for the coming year everyone!
1000!! Congrats
Happy New Year to all you sobriety fighters out there my friends! Keep your heads up, hopes and dreams in mind, allow yourselves to let go sometimes and smile just to be alive and conscious, and keep your fires alive one way or another!! Look after yourselves and us all each other, we are the same souls in different shoes, with so much experience to exchange, so much opportunity, potential, and burning desire to be free and love life… We were born clean and bright, and whatever dark places you might have found yourself in since, or maybe even right now, that’s not you! Neither does it define you! To be here isn’t just dismissable - that’s YOU! And not to be in control of YOUR life 100% f*cking matters my friend… And will right to each of our ends! So let’s let this year make us smile because why the hell not? Do we have it in us to go the extra mile for change…? Do we love enough?
A million reasons to sit here and feel sorry for myself.
A million reasons to stay sober.
Day 95 for me today, 95 days of finding out who i am and 95 days of rebuilding my life.
95 days ago i woke up and decided enough, i didnt imagine i would be here writing this feeling somewhat proud of myself and gratefull to you all for helping me get here, and proud and gratefull we are all here together sober
Happy new year
Well, for me this is a first. Talking and discussing real-time problems with drink and how it can take massive effect on your life I was always doubtful of discussing these issues yet I’ve found with just a short amount of time on here it’s massively encouraging and helpful. I believe you can only truly stop drinking when you thoroughly believe in yourself and not just trying to convince yourself. That time is now for me and also even more confident after joining this community. Stay strong ppl. When the time is right, it’s right… and that time is now.
