I’ve been using this app for quite some time now and only now did I find this community section.. all I ever did on this app was I kept resetting to day 1 because for a long time now I had the hardest time even going past 2 days I would always fall short… but tbh I saw a thread earlier and I was reading the whole thing and it freaking stopped me from drinking the bottle that I just dumped out just minutes ago after being currently 5 days sober I was so shocked and surprised that I was able to do that… I thought it was going to be another reset to day one until I came upon this community and read this one person’s thread… it probably just saved my life…

HI, Never more, I replied to you under your previous thread. Glad to see you are reading posts on here, and so pleased to see you were so inspired by one particular thread, you didn’t drink and chucked the bottle out. Good girl! Keep on reading, getting help, and stay strong. KIndest regards. 😀
