322 Days

Feb 26 2024 was my first day. I had put together six months a few years earlier, then went slowly back until I was drinking every night. Then I decided to try again last feb and here I am! Here with all of you, my brothers and sisters. We are family here; I have been here for the 5 or 6 years, reading about our struggles to stop. I have posted and commented, been deleted, been reinstated. All part of trying to stop drinking. I know all about multiple day ones, as all of you do. I know all about hangxiety, about self hate, about guilt and recrimination. About despair. Depression. Guilt, guilt, guilt. And also about hope, about victory, about self love and new found love for others. About great reserves of patience and strength. Endurance and most of all, Peace. God bless.
