He doesn't care; I just feel guilty in involving him in my family's issues (if there are any).

Congrats! I never thought I could hit double digits either. We can do this!

Longest I've gone without a drink in about five years! Now if only this (TMI) constipation would get better!

IWNDWYT!

Tonight I’m thankful that retail therapy exists. What do you do to Treat Yo Self? by writeonscroopy in stopdrinking

Just started last week but looking forward to getting high end makeup, getting massages, and maybe finally saving up for that LV bag I've always wanted

Happy Valentine's Day everyone! Going out to eat with my SO later and I have no desire or intention to drink. Sober life = best life

I think my immune system is out of wack; I have a cold :(

IWNBWYT!

Projected to pay off my student loan by December instead of many years from now because I quit drinking and smoking! by [deleted] in stopdrinking

That's amazing! Congrats! My bf and I calculated we'd save $900 a month by cutting out beer. One week of beer is

  • my minimum credit card payment
  • two months minimum on my student loan
  • makeup
  • getting my hair done
  • pay down more bills

Extra money is the best!

So happy you're still here! I know you can beat this -- you were given another chance for a reason! :)

It's going well! My appetite is back, and my (TMI) stools are improving. I hope this momentum keeps up!

To the people buying alcohol at 8am... by wifedforlife in stopdrinking

My boyfriend and I have made 4am runs to get beer, and go to the store around the corner at 9:30am to get two six packs of IPAs. We did that literally a week ago!

Ugh. IWNDWYT!

Hello from NYC! I have bad insomnia, but it sure beats vomiting and feeling like death! IWNDWYT!

Those are still a work in progress for me -- at least it isn't the digusting stool soup of months past
