New year seems to be a pivotal time of year for me. NYE marked 3 years drug free. Well last night of all nights, I’ve decided to put the bottle down.
(I tried uploading my clean time picture, but I’m new to this app & unable to upload)

Welcome! Congrats on your three years drug free. And huge congrats on your recent decision to ditch the booze too. There’s nothing like freedom from our addictions!
Stick around, read around. A lot of people find the Checking in Daily thread useful for accountability and to meet other folks.
Happy 2025!

I’m listening to the Red Hot Chili Peppers right now. Scar Tissue. And watching that dancing Abominable Snowman and it goes great with the music. Perfect timing. Great gifs. Grateful for you

Quit date was 1/3/2024. The year dragged on, but also flew by. Not one sip. I’ve never been off alcohol for longer than a day or two for many, many years. 38 years of hard drinking. It’s a miracle I’m still alive and kicking. I lost around 40 pounds. All of it was from drinking. I’ve been told I look like a different person.
Life is great and this is possible. I’m looking forward to the rest of 2025.
To anyone starting their sobriety journey; Hang in there. Build that toolbox. You will always own those tools. Those tools can be used for other aspects in your life. Don’t allow them to rust.
Bring on 2025! I’m ready for it.
