Honestly one of the main reasons I got sober was to get my gorgeous wife back……day 237 sober and I’m never going back…
It gets pretty lonely up in the wheelhouse…just me, the compass, depth sounder, and my best buddy the monitor to watch the crew work.
Beautiful.
Yes mate!! Keep going pal day by day .
For me thats the best tool I use, pros and cons.
Not all parts of my drinking was bad and some good memories but ultimately the bad is far far worse.
And what I gain for losing the good aspects is a no brainer
thank you
80’s hair don’t care happy Tuesday. When all else fails smile… it’s free and makes everything better.
Day 18! Having rough days at work and at home but I refuse to have a drink. There is always vodka in my house and I am very proud I haven’t touched a drop. It won’t do anything but depress me. Not worth it! Stay strong peeps! Proud of you all!
I’m happy theres at least still one person here who remembers the first few!! I had a beautiful year of sobriety 2019 and went back out and found a new low living on the street. Thank God I checked myself into the hospital they saved my life and I’m back here again. Always coming back
My husband still drinks. He stops for a little bit and just goes right back to it. He’ll stop when he’s ready
That’s my 2020!
Leave it on a neighbour’s step. A friend of mine did that and her neighbour hasn’t looked at the milkman the same way since.
That is Southwold on the East coast of England. It is a mixture of quaint and bizarre.
Congrats on 18 days. My wife still drinks. A lot!! There’s always Gin and Wine happening around here. It was a bit tough, I must admit, at first. I was hoping she’d join me in my sober adventure. She’s not ready to. We talk about it. My sobriety that is. Not her drinking. Anyway… I’ve found it gets easier and it doesn’t matter if there’s booze in the house. The reality is: There’s booze everywhere.
Sounds like we are in the same situation. He tells me he’s proud of me. When he starts getting a little too far gone it is a very good reminder as to why I stopped. Thanks for the response. I’m not the only one dealing with a spouse who is a heavy drinker.
I’m sorry you’re in pain. Direction matters. You’re journeying out of darkness rather than deeper into it.
Hang in there lass
