JaG congrats on 60 days, that's awesome!
It's good to see you in here moe. This thread has been insanely helpful for me, I really hope you can get something out of it. Wishing you lots of luck with everything
I can't wait until I hit 60. Breathe it innnnnnnnnnn . (Also the nickname stuck--
yessssss) awesome work man! Day 1 felt like it was yesterday to me. Just look forward .Congrats JaG That's fucking PHENOMENAL! Way to go!
Fuckin miracles happening up in here!
Keep up all the great work guys. Hold on to your sober date for your life, and the longer you keep at it the more you'll realize you wouldn't trade that fucking day for ANY sack of dope, joint, beer, ANYTHING.
Day 157.
Seriously, keep up these miracles guys. Everyday one of us stays sober is a fucking miraculous day indeed.
Casey you are an inspiration. It's been missing something here without you, glad you're back! We're in it together!
about to facetime with the girl.
Thanks S.D!
We are all indeed in this together, and it's good to be back. I tend to drop off participation here when I get depressed and complacent, plus the lack of constant access to a computer wasn't helping. Now that I got a laptop I should be around more for sure.
I got a sobriety counter widget on my macbook!
All I gotta do is slide three fingers across the track pad to switch to the dashboard, and there's a little "days sober" Icon that says how many days I have. Keeping track has never been easier!
Keep it up everyone!
.I love you.
EDIT:
I was using my cell-phone and didn't have time to elaborate on my statement. But this:
Remember in July, when you were happy, that's why you keep dusting yourself off and trying again. There is happiness to be found free of addiction. Just do it again, once again, one more time. Dust yourself off and try again
These are powerful words. I've been on the brink lately. Thinking about it. Tempting myself with illusory thoughts. I'm still clean! But when I read the above quote yesterday, it brought me back to my senses. I don't want to go back to the rut I was in while using. Things are getting back to normal. I'm working (hard!) slowly getting myself back on track w/ finances. WHY would I risk all this hard work for something so temporary and just unhealthy? All for chemical satisfaction? I went and bought an ice cream cone instead. It was yummy.
Peace!
glad it struck you the right way. The words of others are really helpful for me. I'm glad my words are also helpful to others . It means a lot. We have to support eachother. I believe it works. It has worked better than any other sobriety program ever has for me. !!!
Oh yeah, and I wanted to mention, lets not forget the hidden voice those who are viewing this thread who don't have a day. Day 1 is the most important day of them all. 10 days, 1 month, 6 months, a year, they are all PHENOMINAL unbelievable progress that the average person has no idea how difficult they are to achieve, but Day 1 in my opinion is the most important day. So you who are viewing this who feel intimidated because you see days like 10 or 50, or 100, Day 1 is what really counts in the grand scheme of things. So give it a try.
You have us all behind you on this.
