Hell yeah, almost four weeks sober now 
remember that if/when you relapse, it's not about streaks, but about minimizing damage
This is awesome advice! My gf has been dealing with sobriety from heroin, and early on relapsed more frequently. Shes now over a year without using, but wouldn't have been possible if we had just focused on streaks as opposed to understanding relapse is part of recovery
It's terrible, I just lost my little brother because he kept refusing to understand that aspect of recovery. He just kept lying and lying to himself and everyone around him.
One of the most important things is to have people around you who understand the difficulty of going through that recovery process or at least people that understand the danger of a relapse and are able to help you keep it at just a relapse and not your last relapse.
I've got 24h wish me luck!
Congrats <3, every week sober or month sober starts with a day sober
Hell yeah, keep it up!
Congrats – you're sober. It will take a while for your body to remember how to metabolize anything that isn't sugar from alcohol, so you're going to be pretty ravenous soon. Eat plenty. You can expect your coordination and balance to improve in a couple of weeks. In two months, you might start sleeping like a normal person. Full recovery will take years, though. It’ll be depressing. And it’ll be boring. Don’t expect any further rewards or handclaps. This is how normal people are all the time.
Ngl when I first started I was also playing disco Elysium for the first time and made Harry go sober with me, but then went back on that because I wanted the +1 PHYS boost

Congrats! Coming up on a year here. Near beer socially and meditation alone have been pretty helpful.
hell yeah that's the shit i love to hear, keep it up! I'm proud of you!
Good job comrade!
Awesome, best of luck!
Hell yeah get it comrade!
Congratulations comrade (and all the others in this thread). We're rooting for you!
congratulations comrade! Thats incredibly difficult, and I'm really happy for youI'm back up to 20sd/week-ish. Couple of pints at lunch when I can't really go home.
Congrats! I'm at 8 months clean from booze, at 1 month is when I noticed positive changes to my outlook and I started enjoying the hobbies I would usually be drunk while doing. I began preparing and using Kava root around that time too, to help with my sleep.
All power to you!
Hell yeah comrade. I'm working on it too. I've had a stumble but I got 2 weeks under my belt between my last stumble moments. It's getting easier to go longer in between. Thanks for your inspiration to push harder next time and see what I can do.
Congratulations! Eventually being sober just becomes something you are, not something you have to think about. How long that takes is different for everyone, but finding new things to do with your time really helps, especially fitness activities. In the meantime, you don't have to worry about staying sober until that happens, you just have to focus on staying sober today. Every day just focus on today. You got this!
