Welcome to the community Dave
Well done on your 2+ days of sobriety. It is harder to fight for when you among your DOC and giing through personal issues but it can and has been done.
If AA isnt for you- have you checked into other support groups? Are you able to talk with someone irl?
This is a fantastic community that you have joined. So much love and support here- lots of great advice and encouragement and absolutely 0 judgment. You are not alone here.
Read around the threads - join in when you feel ready. We are all here fighting our DOC(s) and lookingvfor a addiction free life.
Glad you are here - hope to see you around.

Thank you Jazzy! Mere minutes away from 3 days! No longer at such a dark place with my husband. We are 22 years apart and I think he is experiencing FOMO. We have been together 6 years and he is now 31. He said he loves me and has no plans on going anywhere but still may want to “experience “ some more. Drinking has ruined so many of my relationships. I am sick and tired of it. Time to kick this beast out of me. My best friend of 30+ years has been c/s for 3 years now. He is a great support. Recommended a book called “The spirituality of imperfection” Said it helped him a lot and he knows me better than most. Anyhow, I appreciate your kind reply and I am pouring a cranberry hibiscus sparkling water over ice to honor 3 days sober in 7 minutes. Be well.

Good morning / afternoon Dave
So happy to hear that you are on day 3 and not in the dark place. Wishing you the best with your relationship and on your sober journey.
I haven’t read that book but it sounds like a great read.
You should also consider posting on our Checking in daily to maintain focus #56 thread - it does help keep you accountable and reach out to more folks on the app.
Can i say YUM - that sounds so refreshing! ENJOY and Happy Friday!
