    Super Sober Shout Out 3rd February 2019

    I'd like to see a big SUPER SHOUTY OUTY SUNDAY from members who have been here a while, those just starting out again or those just starting out for the very first time.........don't forget to shout LOUD AND PROUD.....

    Don't be shy and give it a try...........remember each and everyone one of us here started with a day one!!!!


    SHOUT IT LOUD AND SHOUT IT PROUD. STAY STRONG AND KEEP THINKING POSITIVE ONE AND ALL. LET'S GIVE OUR BEST TOGETHER

    By using the time and date app........ you'll know whether you've a roundy number or not a roundy number............Date Duration Calculator: Days Between Dates

    It is 3499 days from the start date to the end date, end date included........or 9 years, 6 months, 28 days including the end date.........:happy2:
    It could be worse, I could be filing.

    * mussy head
    * Lack of self-respect
    * lack of respect from family
    * The added shame of hiding bottles
    * lying to everyone about everything
    * smell of alcohol oozing from every pore next day in work
    * and the 'goo' for another drink to ease the withdrawal symptoms ..... yuk

    Please add to this list as you see fit :thumbsup:
    Brought this over to this week.

    Things that came to my mind was the fishing, not the road and line thing but the fishing for what happened the night before and the questions I asked......
    Good night, last night wasn't it? Please fill in the details between 7pm and whatever time we got home.
    Do you remember where I put my shoes?
    Didn't 'insert name here' have a good time? When hoping they were drunker than you so no-one noticed your behaviour.
    Why is there a strange glass at the bottom of my handbag?
    Taxi was late, wasn't it?
    Or the complete blackout when you know he/she knows so its pointless asking anything.
    The shame.
    It could be worse, I could be filing.

      1890 days.

      The posts above are reason enough to not drink. I remember waking up with some random and not remembering their name or where the hell i was! oh dear!

        All of the above and then there is the very 'sad' blacking out on the couch and suffering all of the effects the next day. Yep, I had a great night, me and those bottles of wine.

        I am cheating for a roundy. On Thursday, I will have 1300 days.

          And the lieing in bed the next day stewing in your own sweat & self-loathing. That’s why I’m here checking in another sober week.

            [MENTION=22411]IamMary[/MENTION] little 'adjustment' here too - didn't count today to get roundy number.
            A ROUNDY 2050 days :hyper: from the start date - but not including the end date



            THE best decision of my life.
            That feeling has never wavered in the past 5 years.

              4 years and 3 weeks of living a life worth living...
              Quitting and staying quit isn't easy, its learning a whole new way of thinking. It's accepting a new way of life, and not just accepting it, embracing it...
              Worry about tomorrow, tomorrow. Just get through today. Tomorrow will look after itself when it becomes today, because today is all we have to think about.
              Friendship is not about how many friends you have or who you've known the longest. It's about who walked into your life, said "I'm here for you", and proved it.

                I'm shouting out at 48 days!
                Yes, that list above is terrifying.. I never want to go back there again.
                I couldn't live with myself, I was always trying to escape from myself. I loathed myself.. what a terrible feeling.
                So happy to be here with you all now..

                  28 weeks

                  Congratulations to:
                  [MENTION=7008]JackieClaire[/MENTION] on 3500 days,
                  [MENTION=22411]IamMary[/MENTION] on 1300 days,
                  and [MENTION=9094]satz123[/MENTION] on 2050 days!

                  I also was thinking about sweat and being sweatier in general back then as my body was working constantly to eliminate the endless onslaught of that toxin! Glad to be done with ingesting that toxic load.

                    Ava didn't come count for me first... I guess I'll have to go it alone. Shouting out 1,889 days, or 5 years, 1 month, and 1 day!

                    Those 3am GSR sweats, worries. So glad they're gone.

                    Happy SOBER Sunday.

                      I used the Sinclair Method to beat my alcoholic drinking.

                      Drank within safe limits for almost 2 years

                        Alcohol does me no favors.

                        Pouring poison down your throat is just plain STUPID!
