Awesome stuff; super glad you checked in to share - congratulations!

I have 46 days under my belt.

I think about why I chose to seek sobriety and freedom. According to every single source I’ve investigated (including all the amazing people in this community), my life _will_ be better if I remain sober - eventually.

So, I just choose to believe the truth, and disbelieve the lie of addiction, whenever I’m triggered.

The proof is available. You can do this, and your life will be better because you do this.

We’re all rowing the same boat together. And, we’re pulling for you!

By the way, something that really helps me is checking in here, and reading around each day for support and insights. ([Checking in daily to maintain focus #88](https://talkingsober.com/t/checking-in-daily-to-maintain-focus-88/210212))
