Well, i made it to nine months… actually i have a few more hours to go. I drank my last beer on my drive to work nine months ago at 4 A.M.

A lot of shit has changed all pretty much for the better. I lost weight and gained so many positive things. Im a much better father, husband, friend, worker, member of society in general.

If you’re just starting your journey im here to tell you there is hope. Your life can be better. You have nothing to lose and a lot to gain by getting sober.

I want to thank everybody here, it doesn’t matter if your new or an OG. Every post I read strengthens my conviction just a little bit. I could not have made it this far without you all.

Stay strong, battle on friends.

Man, it’s great to read this. If I can remember correctly it’s basically the same things that I wrote at 8 months.
