I am 5 days clean already of booze. All I can say is my head feels fuck atm as I'm also on new anti depressants. Having this long of a break has made me realise how much I used booze to function and that is not good at all. Any how am more adamant to stay sober as I am now getting older (28) and I also got told last week I have diabetes. All in all it was a good run in terms of partying etc however now I have to put some pieces back together again. Although it feels like as if my life atm is some jigsaw puzzle I discarded many years ago.
If you have type 2 diabetes, quitting drinking and managing your diet a bit can fix that right up. Especially if you drank sweet drinks/drinks high in carbs like beer.
Just got a haircut and feel awesome. Plus this cute girl I've been spending time with just texted me asking to go to an NA event this June (all you Midwest folks, its Flight to Freedom at Carlyle lake Illinois, I believe its June 14, 15, and 16 at the mcnair camp ground).

7 days sober heading into 8 tomorrow. Haven't lasted this long without booze in a long long time, all I can say is it feels good despite yesterday and the days before my head feeling not right. Have now begun to eat better and gain better clarity about my own life and have a bit more energy in the day to do things. Any how I hope this becomes a permanent part of my life as I am now 28 and don't want to be the dead beat alcho in years to come which is where I've been heading.
Keep it going noonoo, sobriety feels so good. Drugs and alcohol make us forget that there is a sober happy life for us out there, we just need to give it a chance and stick with it through all the challenges of getting clean and there will be a reward at the end. I'm not getting clean from booze but from heroin and coke and I really didn't expect my life to be this good at a little under 90 days clean.
This is life or death for most of us, me and my friends try to keep it comical though. We always joke that the dealers are putting on a special for a deal for us, if we decide to cop heroin/coke than the dealer with throw in a free side order of homelessness/depression/misery/isolation etc. I have my parents back in my life more than I ever did. They thought I was battling pain pill addiction these past 2 years and I told them this past week that I only did pills for a month before I started sniffing dope then shooting dope then shooting speedballs. They know I'm doing the right thing so they were shocked but they can see a change in me just by how brutally honest I'm willing to be with them. Now I call my Dad to talk about things and vent and just check in, before all I ever talked to my dad about was asking him for money everyday and I'm so glad I'm not doing that anymore. Gl.

Good job everyone! I'm coming up on 2.5 years at the end of the month My life is very blessed today.
God, grant us the serenity to accept the things we cannot chance, the courage to change the things we can, and wisdom to know the difference.

I'm approaching 2 weeks off opiates. I never have been too good at counting days.....
The more days go by trying to maintain myself from losing my mind......drugs are all a dead end, is what I find. The only one that I can justify is a little bit of weed. I dunno, confused tonight.
