Hello everyone, I too want to thank you all for sharing your journey and your honesty. You have helped me over the past few months, as I've read your posts and finally joined DS just the other day. 15 days sober and I feel great. It's a major accomplishment for me of going through two full weekends sober. Coming on DS and reading everyone's struggles, experiences, tips, encouragement and knowledge is awesome and so appreciated. As an aside, I left my marriage recently after 20 plus years of marriage. A couple years ago, I shared with my now ex-husband that I wanted to stop drinking. I got zero support. It was hard to leave my marriage, but I'm happy that I put myself and my needs first for the first time in my life. Thank you all for your support. Knowing you are here, gives me great comfort.
