    AF for 40 days

    Hi All
    Haven't posted for a while, as I've been away, but wanted to share this with everyone, that I have been AF for 40 days now. Still don't know how, it certainly hasn't been easy. Didn't think I would get through the first weekend, nevermind 40 days. I even managed to stay AF on a holiday with my partner, despite us reaching a crisis point in our relationship, I still managed to work through the worst of it without taking a drink. Feeling a whole range of emotions on a daily basis, but somehow managing to cope. Just wanted to wish anyone new to this place well, and believe me, you can find the strength to do this, it takes time and its different for everyone, but you'll find a way. I have told my close friends and immediate family, and have not been rejected, but have received support. If you are out there and are suffering, my thoughts and prayers are with you.

    Hey, Geordiegirl!

    A very big congratulations on your 40 days!!! An even bigger one for staying sober through a relationship crisis.. I can relate! That takes a lot of stamina and strength.

    Thank you for posting. It truly helps everyone when we hear such inspiring words.

    Namaste,

    MM

                        GG,

                        That's HUGE I am so impressed with the many people here who are experiencing relationship crisis or their sig other drinks and they have the willpower not to drink!!!! Keep up the good work

                          GG, well done! Good for you. It's so much easier dealing with life sober. But it's so hard to get to that realization. I'm glad you did.

                          Love, Me

                          Alcohol is simply the device between success and failure.
