    I am 100 days sober


    :yougo::yougo:CONGRATULATIONS DAMO ON 100 DAYS SOBER!!!:yougo::yougo:

    AWESOME post. I can relate to so much of what you said - especially the part about a real turning point (for the worse) when drinking in secret and some of those things kicked in. I'm really sorry to hear about your Dad. I'm so glad you are going down a different path now.

      I made a promise to myself that 2011 was the year I would quit Alcohol.
      I have been trying for a long time.
      I am not out of the woods yet but I DO beleive if I keep working on this, I can live my life much happier without alcohol.
      My new sober life wins every time.
      I have had a sober weekend away which I enjoyed.
      My family are happier because I have more time for them.
      I am fitter, eating healthier, looking better , and all round just feel a whole lot better.

      I wont lie and say it has been easy, because the temptations are there , and sometimes it has been very difficult. But when you get through them, it s a great feeling the next morning that I WON, AGAIN . Alcohol is the enemy for me. It made me miserable .

      I , my mother , and brother and sisters are going through a really tough time with my fathers chronic alcoholism problem. Sadly, I dont think HE will beat it .
      I think this , in a strange way is helping me stay AF . I dont want to put my wife and boys through what my father has put us through.
      I feared if I continued to drink, I could very easily head that way as I was beginning to drink heavy and in secret.

      Thats all for me for now.
      I have said before, this site and its members have been my biggest help and support.
      I cant thank you enough.
      If anyone reading is in there early days, PLEASE , PLEASE hang in there. It gets easier and your life will improve amazingly if you want it to, and put it in the work.

      :thanks: again my friends.

          Your kind words mean a lot.
          And watching everyone BEAT this addiction and doing so well is really driving me to keep going.

              Hey damo, a bit late here, too, but no less sincere in congratulating your 'hunnerd, and wishing you a thousand more. With folks like you, writing about the positive rewards of a sober life, we just feel so encouraged and able to believe in ourselves. Your "I can do this!" attitude is inspiring. Cheers, Jib
