This type of thread is on the eating disorders page dealing with bulimia and how many days it has been since you've purged. It has really helped me so I'm starting one for alcohol now. Today is day 1.

It is now day 1 for me. One day at a time from here on out. I no longer welcome this destructiveness in my life. I want recovery. I want out of the darkness.

Two months today! I'm so proud. My husband is so proud. My marriage has improved by leaps and bounds. I couldn't have done a better thing for my life and marriage (and for my son) than giving up alcohol!

Three months today! It's been a fantastic journey. I hope to give hope and light to others struggling with alcohol addiction. I'm truly a better person for getting sober.
