Thinking about how different I feel today, 3rd October 22 compared to 3rd April 2017. Way back then when I joined the soberschool. At the time I had convinced myself I would never be able to stop drinking. It just wasn't going to happen to me. How was reading about not drinking actually going to… Continue reading Day 2006 = almost 5 Β½ years

Sunday am : day 1781
It's been so long since I posted! Sometimes life takes over, sometimes it's scary to open up, sometimes it's been so long I have nothing to say. Truth is I didn't think I had anything interesting to say, but then what is a real blog, without the normal days of well quite frankly... Simple normal… Continue reading Sunday am : day 1781
Sun AM: Three years & eight months
Because Xmas comes only once a year it is much harder to form habits, much harder to believe that being sober will be OK, much harder to imagine how you will cope on not just Xmas day but right through till new year and beyond.Play the movie forward is a massive tool in my toolbox.… Continue reading Sun AM: Three years & eight months
Day 1156 (nearly 38 months) Fri am
Wow that was exciting, had a zoom chat with my soberschool coach yesterday. Had a good chat about my journey so far.

Tue am : Day 991
Whilst watching another amazing sunrise on holiday I reflect on the countdown to 1000 days. How is this even possible! I'm super chuffed with myself. To be honest I never thought I'd make 10 days. In April it will be 3 years. I have absolutely no desire to drink now. When I gave up drinking… Continue reading Tue am : Day 991

Two years alcohol free
Two years ago today I was sitting at home thinking "why can't I stop drinking" my reasons at the time were. I've been drinking for too long I can't change. I am addicted to alcohol, I've tried pills, hypnotherapy, councillors nothing has worked and nothing will ever work. I am too sneaky, I hide my… Continue reading Two years alcohol free
