    Next step - Day 14 or 2 sober weeks...

    Hi Audrey,

    I just wanted to say a huge well done on your journey, and you are being so incredibley strong. stick with it. It is so very worth it in the long run. It will be amazing to reach the point in your journey when you can look back and realize that being sober FAR out ways drinking.

    Day by day, hour by hour, minute by minute if you have to. Spring will come soon.

    A wish you all the luck in the world with your job interviews.

      Next step - Day 14 or 2 sober weeks...

      Hi Audrey, I agree with you that our "aura" or "energy" or whatever you wish to call it is significantly decreased over time as our body has to fight the poison of alcohol. I have noticed a huge difference in myself, and in a friend of mine who is now 5 months sober. As self esteem increases along with "liking" oneself again, this helps to build for sure.
      Keep up the good work,
      Hill

        Thanks autumn for your appreciation and words of comfort:thanks:!!!
        I really need them because sometimes i'm very demanding to myself that's why now i'm with clear head judging my "activities or actually non-activieties" during last 2 years..

        I have this sensation that i lost huge part of my life..especially after 40 every year is golden worth!!!!!..i'm looking back and i understand that i unconsciously tried not to live but slowly go away from this life..i know the reasons but it's long story..i didn't want to do it..so who??? A terrifying feeling..

        Ok, returning to my movie evening (The merchant of Venice) I'm obssesed with Venice and 16 century recently

              Audrey - congratulations! I can totally relate to a lot of the things you are saying. I've been living my life in a "fog" for probably the past 5-6 years. You are encouragement to me....I'm right behind you on day number 7 today. Keep it up!

                    On the road again...
                    Day 2 complete. And it wasn't so incrediably hard..
                    It could be my 14 days today...sad but reallity is different..only i can admit that this 11 days were very important in recovery so i now can be so quick back on my sobriety road...

                    Wish you all peace and sunny and sober morning tomorrow!!!

                      Just consider those 2 days a bump in the road.
                      Can I have a life please, make it a double - I've got some catching up to do!

                        Next step - Day 14 or 2 sober weeks...

                        Hi all friends on Sunday evening!!!

                        Wanted to say that i'm doing well and this "2 day bump" on the road as bugalugs told wasn't a big issue..but i think if i didn't have this 11 AL free days behind me could be much harder to start again sober life..
                        My job with a baby is helping too..today i was invited to participate a christening ceremony so it was a bright and nice event..and i got a new, great friend who's helping me very much with my problem..

                        So, after my "bump on the road" i had 5 sober days and continue...

                        Wish you a strength for the next week!!! :goodjob:
