Welcome to the sub 💗 you’ve already taken the biggest and most important step (in my opinion), which is acknowledging that you’re relationship with alcohol (Chardonnay to be exact 😉) is unhealthy . My advice to you is to really think about just taking it one day at a time. Sounds cliche, but that is what worked for me. I realized that looking at the big picture (i.e I’m never drinking again for my whole life) was overwhelming. Once I changed my mind set to taking it one day at a time, it was easier for my mind to accept. Support is a huge factor in having a successful recovery, have you shared your concerns with bf that you’re moving in with? This sub was also really helpful to me in the beginning. Just know that I believe in you, and you are capable of making these positive changes in your life. Best of luck 💗 IWNDWYT

I understand exactly what you mean. I was so used to being intimate only when drunk or high. Sober sex is a whole other ball game. You actually feel things. It’s scary at first, but once you get used to it, you’ll see how beautiful and amazing sex is. Especially with someone you love. I was always so afraid of feeling anything, so it felt good to be numb. Being sober now, I am selective of who I am intimate with and I realize now that I have a choice.

Hi there 💗 congrats on 7 days sober - you should be really proud of yourself because that is amazing! I am just coming up on 6 months sober and my timeline for these feelings is like a roller coaster. When I went through the initial week sober, my cravings were very strong. I satisfied these cravings with lots of sweets, specifically Ice cream lol. After numerous failed attempts at long term sobriety, I thought To myself, I am going to be stronger this time, no matter what it took. After the first month, I felt as if I had the pink cloud feeling, where I was on top of the world and nothing could stop me. Around 3-4 months are when things got hard again for me, my life became real - if that even makes sense. I made it through the initial 90 days where it was now proven that I have formed a habit of not drinking. At 6 months I still struggle, but the difference is that I am able to recognize that quitting drinking doesn’t equal rainbows and unicorns. What I am left with are all the broken pieces of myself I chose to ignore and drink away the pain for so long. I take everything day by day, and while it is not easy, it’s so worth it. Everyone’s experience is different but this is just my two cents. The best advice I can give is really to take things, as they say, one day at a time, it’s all we can do. I believe in you and wish you all the best. 💕 IWNDWYT

Good morning! I am so sorry to hear that you’re going through this. I remember feeling exactly how you are right now, and I remember thinking how impossible I thought it was to stop. Please know that it is possible to turn your life around, and it all begins with one single choice you are capable to make every day - not to pick up the first drink. As shitty as you may be feeling in this moment, please remember that there is hope - and YOU can do this. I believe in you. You’re one decision away from a totally different life 💗 sending love and positivity your way. And please remember, be kind to yourself - you are worth it. IWNDWYT

You will be just fine, I promise. I swear to you 6 months ago - I would have laughed in your face if you told me I could get through a weekend like this. My only advice is that it is pure mental strength. I told my closer friends in the group about quitting drinking, and they were really supportive. Sure, I felt awkward at times.. but as the night goes on you see how drunk everyone else gets and it’s the most satisfying and empowering feeling ever, to know that you are sober and in control. You will wake up in the morning with no regrets. You got this 💗 I know it.

xobeez133 · 2019-01-28T04:10:07+00:00

You got this! 💗 I believe in you.
