I am so amazed. Me, straight for one month. No pot, no alcohol. I am shocked. I never really believed it was possible.
One day at a time. I can stay straight for one day at a time. Sometimes one hour, sometimes one minute. The thought of a lifetime without pot and alcohol is to huge but i can do one day. Just for today i will stay straight and tomorrow morning i will say the same thing.
I have been going to lots of A.A meetings and although i dont believe in God as in Jesus Christ i do believe in the universe, nature and evolution. I just put it out there in the universe to help me stay straight each morning. And each night i am grateful for resting my head on pillow after a great day rather than passing out tired and worn from a day of pulling cones and drinking vodka.
I am lucky to have this message board. You were all an inspiration especcially when i was freaking out about going into detox. It was the best thing i ever did.
My life now with my partner and my two children is so much better. Sure i have bad days but they are never as bad as those last few weeks (years) of bong smoking and drinking getting totally smashed. It was all i knew for so long i am glad i am creating a new life for me.
Thanks everyone. You really helped to save my life. Suicide, self harm and self hate are no longer an option for me. I want more of this life.
congratulations!!!!!!!!!!! you must be so proud of yourself. treat yourself to something special. you deserve it.
Shark Girl, I'm really proud of you, this is the hardest thing you will ever do, and your children will be healthy too. Even though I've recently slipped, I am grateful for the ten plus years of sobriety while I raised my kids. I KNOW it made a difference in their lives. Through my actions, they saw a woman handle life with grace and style, just like your kids will see. Stick with those meetings, learn all you can ! (/) (/) (/)
CONGRATULATIONS!!!!
