100 days for me

[ladybug71]

Well, I'm at my 100 days milestone once again. I am happy to be here, but I really feel like my work is just beginning.

I am not sure how sober I really was for my first few weeks - I felt very "active" even though I was abstaining from P. It took several weeks to get over the feeling of being a "dry drunk." Maybe even several months. Anyway, after 100 days, I'm feeling a little more like I'm in a sane state of mind. Resisting urges and temptations is feeling easier these days, and I don't find my mind constantly distracted by thoughts of P, or temptations to MB or do other questionable behaviors.

It really did take a couple of months to get there, though. Before that, I was trying but still slipping. Man, it is HARD to pull out of that hole once you have settled in to it again.

So anyway, on to my next 100 days I guess.

Good luck to you all, and keep up the fight!

Congrats on another 100, lb!

(...hmmm. Maybe I should have written-out ladybug71. Almost looks like the abbreviation for "100 pounds", doesn't it? )

Thank you for your example. Thanks for walking the walk. Thanks for sharing your recovery success with all of us.

It helps.

Best Wishes,

P

I can so relate! For me, it's easier to stay sober then to get sober.

Congratulations, labybug. Great work. Thanks for sharing this with the rest of us.

One day at a time.
