Angel, good for you!
love, you are saving your own life. perhaps with us cheering you on but you are doing the hard work of one/hour/day at a time.

I'd glad you are grateful...
ya know what ? your gratitude will grow every day you are clean/sober.
after awhile, gratitude overcomes desire to self-destruct

I'm happy for you...

Catherine

hi angel, thanks for that great update! i am so happy for you. it is not the easiest thing you will ever do, stopping, but each day you will become stronger emotionally and mentally. aa really was my life boat and hopefully you'll give it a try. the ppl there are so supportive of newcomers. why? we've all been where you are now. you don't ever have to suffer again from addicition. hope you will continue to keep us posted....we care about you, angel.

Angel, I meant what I said - it does get easier, and I *know* you've got the gumption to get through this rough patch.

You can do it, and congrats on deciding to quit. That's always the biggest step, really.

Congrats on three days! You can do it. Just one day at a time, or one hour, whatever works. It can be done. I wanted to put one of those clocks on my posts showing the number of days and hours since my last drink. 12-17-2000. It was tough but if I can do it, you can. Keep it up!
I am new here and just learning my way around so forgive me if I get out of line occasionally.
Thanks for this!
