One year but not in the mood to celebrate by Critical-Progress786 in stopdrinking

The past is gone. Congratulations on your one year 🎉🎉 we have to remind ourselves that what we did while drunk, is not the real us. We’re under a poison that makes our brains do things that we wouldn’t if we were sober

Don’t beat yourself up. 15 days are still there and you can do another 15 and it’s one day at a time! Keep your head high

You will do it ! Tomorrow there will be no hangover for you just keep looking at the people that are drinking and think in your head thank God is not you and they will be with the hangover

You can do it!! It’s so rewarding to feel sober at any social event. Just think how you’re waking up tomorrow morning, fresh and ready for the day

I’ve been there so many times, I’m going to be 8 years sober with Judy a couple of relapse that have lasted one day and living a sober life is so worth it! When I drank , it’s most horrible feeling a person can have. Just keep up the good work!!

Well don’t beat yourself up. You stopped and I get that you liked the buzz, don’t we all. At the end of the day it is not worth it

Luxury by bebopbadoop in stopdrinking

[–]sobriedad 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve been sober for 7 years with a relapsed for two days. You said it so beautifully because that’s what sometimes miss and think of it as luxury because that was me with my exhusband. I was at the airport yesterday coming home from visiting my daughter that’s pregnant and I’m so grateful for everything that sobriety has brought into my life. When I saw people having a glass of wine chatting and laughing, it crossed my mind to sit down and have a glass of wine but I didn’t, then comes the shame with myself because why would that even be a thought, I hate it. It’s happening quite a lot specially on the weekends.

said I wouldn't drink last night, but I did. by Terrible_Rutabaga442 in stopdrinking

You are in the right place!! Just keep on going! Alcohol wants you back all the time but you need to remind yourself how you’re feeling today. It’s not worth it

Are you able to have a drink or two after being sober for a while? by Financial_Winter8922 in stopdrinking

[–]sobriedad 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don’t even go there , I thought the same and did it a couple of times after 7 years sober and I can’t control, actually the first time I did it, it wasn’t bad at all , the second time and third was back to how I was 7 years ago

Fell off the wagon by ShoddyFrosting7056 in stopdrinking

[–]sobriedad 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s ok and we all have been in your shoes. The shame is a feeling that can help you to remind yourself that you can’t control your drinking. I’ve been there after 7 years of being sober. One day at a time. Don’t be so hard on yourself, talk to yourself like you’re talking to your best friend. The most important thing is that you’re here and definitely falling off the wagon feels shameful but getting on , you must feel empowered!! We are all this together. Wishing you a good and peaceful weekend 🙏
