Double digits is something to be proud of @AJR2019! 
Well done!
@Jfrat and @Axsis congratulations with your 3 months sober!
2 weeks done @anon17130000!!
That sounds like a crap day to me @Rob68, proud that you didnāt drink. We are getting stronger by every battle we win!
Hope you have a better day today 
Nice catch @AyBee!! 
@KevinesKay, sorry itās been rough for you. But you are still doing it.
I do not know where you are from @Bananagram, but I heared SMART is good.
Hope you will feel better soon @C_8!
Day 470 
Wanna laugh? I dropped an old bread on my toe 
Now my toe is all purple and sore. How stupid, I can barely walk normal. Cripple by a bread!! 
I baked the bread myself but forgot about it and it was as hard as a stone when I wanted to trow it away. But it wouldnāt agree with my plan. It took revange!
Working day ahead and going to visit friends tonight for NYE. Have bought myself alcohol free wine to celebrate 2020 at 0.00.
This is my second NYE sober, I can do it and so can you!

- No more work this year. Yay! The weather is nice. Some sunshine on my face. My mood is actually improving. The realisation that I made it through a pretty big personal crisis without drinking makes me feel accomplished. At the same time I know Iāve never been more anxious (for a prolonged time) in my life. Much work to do in 2020. Iām willing to do it. Clean and sober.
Iām staying home tonight. Didnāt like the party much in the last years. Too much drink and drugs, and way too much fireworks over here. Iāll stay in and give Luna some moral support. Even though sheāll be under the bed where I wonāt join her or not for any prolonged time anyway. Have a great end of the decade all! Clean and sober that is. Love from Amsterdam.

Day 16. So happy to be going into the new year sober. The withdrawal symptoms are behind me. I slept great last night and without the help of melatonin. I feel so good and so hopeful for the new year. 2018&2019 were a struggle filled with a lot bad news and hard times that I was definitely not able to always handle properly. Not being high on pills all the time actually makes me want to deal with things instead of avoiding them and hoping they work out or putting them off until God knows when. Stay strong today all you wonderful sober people. Have a terrific sober Tuesday

He Menno!
Good to read this.
I am putting some work in today since I have been putting it of for about 14 days.
I should be fearless but I am scared off facing myself right now. So I thought Iād share it right here and then it is not in my system anymore.
You have a calm evening my friend!
From Zaandam all my love hope and wishes for our coming years

Day 55.
Wow!! Iām so close to 60! Never thought Iād see the day, ESPECIALLY during this time of yearā¦
This is the last day for the end of the decade. Donāt mean to sound like a pessimist but when I was a little girl I thought by the year 2020 we would have:
- flying cars
- robot maids like The Jetsons
- teleportation of self and items
- vacations to the mars (well at least the moon)
- Walt Disney would have been thawed out and walking among us
Lol!!!
Even if I donāt have a robot maid to do my housework 
, I am still extremely grateful and thankful Iāve made it this far! With all the shenanigans Iāve been in, I am also surprised. But Iām here and YOUāRE here too! We made it! We freaking made it!!! We donāt need to know the why or the how- itās not important. The important thing is that weāre here and we have a fire in us that will keep us fighting. Everyday!
Best wishes to every single one of you warriors and letās leave all the garbage, baggage, pain, tears and dead weight in 2019!!
2020 Iām coming for you! Get ready!! Time to shake these demons off my back once and for all!!!

Thank you Iām hunkered down and my husband is being great. We thought heād got the flu at the same time, but it was only a small bout of Listeria 
(folks in the US, check the egg recall notice!!). https://www.cdc.gov/listeria/outbreaks/eggs-12-19/index.html
Nice to hear that Fluoxetine is working for you. Fingers crossed here 
Edit: WTF. Husband saw Dr today. Now he DOES have the Flu.

Boss of my life waking up to a new year and a new decade with 33 days of sobriety. There is no telling what I can accomplish this year, now that Iām in control of my life. The thought gives me goosebumps. Enjoy your freedom, people. Never give it up again.

Hi Z,
Donāt think this is the place to advertise drinks enhanced with a Substance my friendā¦ It is my DOC for that matter 
Have a great 2020!
And donāt drink or dwink any substances folk!
We are addicts and we cannot see one drugs different as the other since it led many fellows to giving their habits freedom all over again.

Day 424 and checking,So today I hit 44 years of age , and Iāve successfully traversed all of 2019 clean and sober , itās been a challenging year but also a year of learning and growing, Iāve met some fantastic people on here and this group has really helped me through some really dark days. Understanding recovery and what it means to me as a person has been a real learning curve as not drinking or using is only the first step , the real work is maintaining a sober life style and using the 1 day at a time mentality ā¦I wish all of you my brothers and sisters in recovery a happy new year and may 2020 bring you ALL happiness and prosperity
