Well done you, meetings are the game changer for so many. It’s the not thinking your the only one, it’s seeing with your own eyes it’s possible. It’s hope.

Exactly. Thank you 
Been chatting with some friends today, and I was so proud of myself because I felt I could be myself again for the first time in a very long time.

I’m proud of myself for not throttling my house guest when he put ketchup on the amazing Meatloaf I made … without tasting it first!!!
For me this is huge!

I’m proud that I was able to go inside a liquor store and not buy anything for myself. I’m disappointed that my girlfriend knows how much of a problem I have and that I’m trying to recover from alcoholism but still made me get drinks for her, but that’s a topic for us to discuss another day. I’m proud that I didn’t drink today.

That’s awesome, Rob! It can be really tricky to do that. Welcome to the community, and I hope it helps you on your journey. 
That should be a crime … Great job for ignoring it.

I shared my addiction and recovery story today, as part of my new role as an experience expertise worker, with a group of nine patients/fellows admitted to the detox I’ve been working as a nurse for the last 20 months. I feel it went well. It’s emotional stuff. I do feel the power of sharing personal stories and I learned all about sharing right here, over the last years.
I’m so proud of you all here, sharing, fighting for a better life, to kick addiction in the balls, helping each other, helping me and letting me help you and I hope others.

I’m proud that I woke up sober today and I’m proud to know I can make it through another day. I’m proud that I have reached out to my network to say I’m struggling with sobriety today but I know it will get better. Drugs and alcohol are only a temporary solution. I can see there is a better way.

I’m proud of my progress. I’ve come a very long way since October of last year. I had just come out of a year long psychiatric hospitalization. I was anxious, unable to function at a volunteer position much less a job, I was fatigued and my health was failing but all of those problems have been resolved! I am no longer feeling like it’s a constant battle in my head because my anxiety or stress levels are so high that I feel like hurting myself. It’s an automatic thought. I feel shitty inside so I made how I was feeling on the surface match. I’d put all my effort and attention into hurting myself that I didn’t even get to see what life had in store. I am blessed and grateful everyday that goes by where I don’t give into my urges. It’s been a long, difficult journey. I’ve come so far and today specifically I made a lot of progress in therapy and just acknowledging that I made progress and I’m doing well is HUGE.

I am proud because today I got my driver’s license. I lost it in the summer of 2002 and drunk me never cared to get it back. It took a lot of work but in the end I WIN and i owe it to my sobriety and im very thankful for this every day. And tomorrow is my 18 months no booze mark. What a great way to celebrate a milestone.
