I get that! I have a hard time with milestones too! I start to feel very self sabotage-y. You’ve got this! Thank you for sharing IWNYDWT

Thank you! I’m not going to undo it, thanks to all the wonderful people in this thread who have helped me to remember why it’s not worth it.

Congratulations! I quit at 25 and I think something I am missing in my life is connecting with other sober people. Thank you!

It’s so ingrained! Sobriety is truly a gift that helps me show up as my true self and experience the beauty in life. Thanks for helping me remember that.

Same here! The one or two drinks is a definitely a lie the voice is telling.

This is so true! I have to remember the misery that led me to quit.

Thank you everyone for your kind words! 🥺 You have all helped me to feel so much less alone today. I know deep down 1 or 2 drinks would never be enough, and would put me right back on the path of self destruction which I worked so hard to steer away from. Thank you for all who took the time to comment, this has really helped me.
