@trustybird OOH I know the dreams are bad enough but being able to taste the wine. I would be in trouble. I am grateful that you were able to play the tape forward and use your tools in your dreams. Shows that even in your subconscious you are living for sobriety. @scorpn Thank you friend I do hope you feel well rested this week and things work out for your daughters on line school. @dmcg1987 Oh my that addictive brain is tricky. Just letting you think that the New Year’s drink would be a “reward” will open the doors for anytime you do something reward worthy. Such a slippery slope and I know I’ve fallen for it way too many times. Great job for realizing the lies and sticking to your sobriety. @iamthechange Sending positive healing energy your way friend – wishing all goes well today with the removal of the stiches and the recovery process @chevy55 Oh what a lovely view – thanks for sharing. Grateful you were able to stay safe and warm. @wakikki thanks friend – hope you are feeling better today
Checking in on Monday morning
A crappy night sleep. I need to call the dentist and get this mouth splint fixed. It was working great up until a few nights ago. now it has caused bruising and cuts on the inside of my upper lip and my lower jaw is very sore. Have my consult with the surgeon this morning and then a consult for my mom. Grateful to start it relaxing with a cup of coffee.
Wishing everyone a wonderful addiction free day - sending you all so much love
Hey hey hey! I know it’s been awhile my friends! How’s everyone doing? Well, today’s my big day… one year clean and sober! I did it… I fucking did it!!! Not one relapse after a five plus year addiction. I overcame so much in one year and also accomplished so much. Got my license back after 19 years of not having them. Got my own vehicle. Moved to another city. Met my daughter for the first time. Adopted an amazing doggo who is now my best friend. We go everywhere together so I guess it’s safe to say she’s my service animal. I’m blown back by just how much life has changed for the better. So many of you helped me in the beginning when I was questioning everything and everyone. I just want to whole heartedly thank you all. Seeing your stories and accomplishments fueled me to want to keep going and do better. Going to get a sobriety tattoo today to remind me of just how important this date is and how important it is to keep it going! I know I haven’t been on this app much but that’s because my life is BUSY busy right now. Please just know I am aware of how important this app is and was to my sobriety. Here’s to another year, a great year! ODAAT!!! Peace and love to you all!!!
So good to see you Billy!!! Omg- 1 year sober is amazing friend.
So happy to hear all the positive changes that have occurred in this 1 year for you. So many more to come my friend.
A tattoo? Love it- please do share a pic with us when it’s completed.
Much love to you - grateful to be on this journey with you
Congratulations on such an amazing milestone and life turn around.
You are now living the life of inspirational story for others to aspire too. Very well done!

What a great inspiring wonderful share. I love these stories. I’m so happy for you and that you popped in to tell us. One of the best things I that I heard on TS is protect that sober date at all cost!! That’s what you’re doing. Keep that shit up and enjoy life on life’s terms.
Thank you friend! You are one of the ones who was there and helped pull me through at the beginning! How are you doing? I hope all is well. I’ll always have a place for you in my heart and memories jazzy!!! Thank you for being such a great friend!
I did it!

Day 5 is here! I’m still feeling really great and motivated. I’ve been getting a lot done lately, but try to remind myself to slow down when I need to. It’s always been hard to listen to my body, but I’m trying. Less coffee, less nictotine, no drinking and taking things in stride- without obsessing over any of it. So far, it’s been a really nice combination that eases daily stress. Writing is helping a lot too. I find myself having small epiphanies throughout the day and I write them down when I can. I hope everyone is having a great day today!
