Hello all.
Today, in just 4 short hours I am officially going to be 100 days sober.
I’m 26 yo and I haven’t been sober this long since I was 17 & only bc I was pregnant.
I cannot describe the way I see the world now, the amount of emotions I am feeling today and how, honestly confusing sobriety is in its infant stages.
I don’t have a lot of sober friends and I feel especially isolated, even with their support.
Happy Friday the 13th
Never alone with a milestone here! Triple digits is amazing!
Amazing work, congratulations
Stick around here, we absolutely love a milestone! I am on Day 29 and can’t wait to celebrate 100.
Are you going to treat yourself, or mark this milestone in some way?
I am getting a tattoo from my homies flash sheet
I know all my friends are more than supportive but it’s just different with people who get it
I never ever ever thought I would be here. It’s hard
Congratulations to you on your sobriety!
Not easy at all to get to 100 and you’ve done it.
As they say, the struggle is real.
Great supportive community here to help you when it’s challenging, to help you figure it all out when you wonder and to cheer you on each and every day.
I quit when I was about your age and after the first part which was more peer pressure than anything else, I got to a point where I was so grateful it was out of my life and I never really gave it much thought.
I was the one who didn’t drink and that was that.
Never ever have regretted at all not drinking.
For so many reasons plus it would’ve killed me.
Welcome to your sobriety and the community.
I’m super proud of you.
Huge congratulations 100 days is amazing!!
Also a warm welcome to the community
It’s great here, keep coming back.
100 is strong! Welcome and keep getting after it!
Good morning and congratulations on 100 days! I get what you’re saying about the alone feeling you’re experiencing. I think you did something here to help yourself by posting. This is a form of journaling with people who are reading what you said and can identify with you. There is no one answer to the feeling of loneliness or isolation. When i was in early sobriety, i would just get in my car and drive to the mall or some store and walk around. Or go to the gym was help for me. Simple taking a walk around the block can also shake some of the feelings. Knowing you have made this 100 days sober through your determination and discipline should fill you with pride that your in select company. Many don’t ever know what that feels like. Unfortunately, i know a lot of them. Happy Friday the 13th and do some awesome self care to celebrate you’re milestone! Keep going!!!
Welcome!! And congrats on your 100 days!! What a gift to your self!
Welcome and well done for the 100 days, may many follow!
Congratulations to You! 100 days is amazeballs!!! Be proud of yourself
Congratulations on your 100 days of recovery Andrea.
I understand your feeling about celebrating alone. I too had no one to celebrate with when I reached a milestone. We celebrate loudly around here. It’s a HUGE deal.
Great work and welcome to this wonderful sober community.
Welcome to the Family! Congratulations on your milestone, it is a huge accomplishment.
Yes…what a wonderful way to celebrate the day… triple digits!
Excited for you and your amazing achievement! We will happily celebrate your awesomeness with you
Looking forward to seeing your tattoo
Wow what an amazing community. I want to thank all of you on your kind words definitely makes things easier
Welcome! Congratulations on 100 days!! I’m so glad you found us
100 days!!! Woooooo that’s awesome. Been a while since I went that long.
I am alone too. Besides the company of my stinky ass loyal loving dog.
Each day is a milestone for me (and you). I often wake up in shock that I am indeed alone. But there is hope in HOPElessness. Enjoy your own company. You’re not a bad person, you wouldn’t be here otherwise.
100 days - something I am striving towards.
Thanks for the motivation and giving me hope.
