Today is 6 months sober and I guess I'm feeling pretty good about it. What I'm mostly feeling is tired, of fighting this stupid addiction. I've had 6 months lots of time before, but this time feels different, like it's my last opportunity to get it right.
And I guess I'm feeling kind of proud too, since I've lived through major upheaval without picking up in the last 6 months. Also I'm starting back to school today, which will hopefully allow me to get my life back on track career wise. That does feel good. And I know I'd never be able to do that if I wasn't sober. So thanks for all your support and here's to another 24. splitimage

you have been an inspiration. we are in similar circumstances, as to age and work, and your sobriety has impressed upon me the need and ability to be sober in food. so thank you, and congratulations, and here's to.

I can surely sympathize, splitimage--been there, done that, bought the T-shirt
. I'm excited for you that you've started school & hope this sends you on an exciting path that encourages sober steps.AA saved my life, & my sponsor was my best friend getting through the 12-steps. Perseverance! Roadie
