2 months sober today. For most no big deal. For me that’s 8 weekends with out drinking. I’m still in treatment and attending AA.
No change on home front. Feel the pain still everyday.

Here is the way I was : 100 percent a selfish

It took time and a willingness to change. I applaud you for the 60 days and wish you 60000 morw

Congrats on the two months - that is huge !!!!

Every day sober is a miracle!

I knew a guy recently that went to the hospital for being so drunk, he almost died from it. They let him out of the hospital the next day, after cleaning him up and instead of going straight home, he stops at the store to buy a bottle of vodka. That's the grip that alcohol has on our minds. We know it will ultimately kill us but we keep doing it over and over again! That's the definition of insanity!

So if you are two months sober, that's a huge accomplishment! Give yourself a pat on the back.

Don't worry about the home front. Put it in the Hands of your Higher Power and remember this Prayer and say it often:

God, grant me the serenity
to accept the things I cannot change,
the courage to change the things I can,
and the wisdom to know the difference.
Living one day at a time,
enjoying one moment at a time;
accepting hardship as a pathway to peace;
taking, as Jesus did,
this sinful world as it is,
not as I would have it;
trusting that You will make all things right
if I surrender to Your will;
so that I may be reasonably happy in this life
and supremely happy with You forever in the next.

Amen.

God Bless

Isn't that sad Bob - that someone ends up in hospital, nearly dying from alcoholism, and then gets released, and buys a bottle of vodka. You would think and hope that nearly dying, would be enough of a wake-up call. It shows how powerful this addiction is. These kinds of stories help me to stay sober, I never want to be like that man. And if I picked up a drink today, I could be that man eventually, that's where it all leads - to misery, hell and a life of pain !!!

Well done on two months!!! Keep taking care of yourself so that you create a health that you cherish. Exercise and a balanced diet with lots of water is like an anti depressant.

Kuse my two months is next week. It’s a big deal. So yay us!

Hey everyone. 3 1/2 months sober today.
Very happy with this. Anyone ever hear of this naked mind? I read the book and now joined the challenge and group.
Divorce still same as I have been working on me and my sobriety along with health ( lost 45 lbs so far) in good way.
Things have gotten worse with her. Lawyers now involved and 0 contact.

Congrats...............yay you !!!
So glad to hear, yes - Naked Mind is apparently very good, I have it downloaded on my computer but yet to read it - another one of the 20 books I need to read :)
You sound like you are in a much better place both mentally and physically, and that makes everyone in this group so happy.
Be careful of the sugar cravings that will hit, everyone warned me and I just laughed, until I got them.
(I think your post has had the most responses in the entire time I have been in this group)

Yay Kuse! Congrats to you. You are doing all the right things. You sound good. And strong. Keep it up.

Congratulations on 2 months sober! Don't downplay it - it is a big deal and a huge accomplishment and you should be proud of yourself.

How are you doing?

Congrats on the 3 1/2 mos. sobriety and hopefully 4 1/2 mos. by now. You’re doIng so well and keeping your focus during this trying time with your divorce. Very happy for you and hope to hear an update soon!

Thank you again everybody. Yes at 4.5 months. I’m doing it. Triggers suck for me it’s Friday nights but I’m getting through.
Divorce getting close to final and getting uglier daily

4 1/2 months - great job, you are doing it, you are remaining sober through the toughest of times, that is a fantastic achievement, be proud, it would be so easy to give up and drink cos everything gets too hard, if you can get through this, you can get through anything, take care
