Can't believe it has been that long. Stopped drinking altogether 50 days ago... I am happy about it and I feel proud about myself. Quite a new feeling surprisingly. Thank all of you for posting. It helped me tremendously.
10 things I got from those 50 days:
1- I can do it. I prove to myself that I can make myself a promise and stick to it, even of it is the fifth time trying.
2- it took me a month or so to start enjoying being sober. Don't want to go through that again.
3- I think less and less about drinking. Days go by and I don't think about it.
4- much more stable emotional state and increase in overall wellbeing and happiness.
5- lost 6 lbs. black patch under my eyes gone by 50%. Memory and mental clarity way up.
6- saved about $450 in booze. Nice
7- deeper sleep and I wake up fresh
8- increase in productivity at work. Increase of income by 25%. I am able to do lots more than before in the same time. Also, I don't waste 3 hours daily. Drinking takes time to do and to recover from.
9- my girl likes me better
10- No more depression, no more headaches, no more pills, no more hangovers, so overall better health.
That's about all I can think right now. Quite a difference in my life.
Thanks again to all, Patrick.
