I Did It. Year One. 100% Sober.

Today. On this day one year ago. I was starting to have multiple health issues, due to over indulgence. So I decided to take a good, honest attempt toward becoming 100% sober. It did take some help along the way. Like staying away from those associated triggers that come with drinking alcohol. The best advice I can impart to anybody trying is stay honest with yourself and others.

But even if it's only been an hour, a day, a week, a few weeks, a month, many months, or just one year. All that will matter at the end, is staying sober just for today.

That's fantastic!!! You've done what many have not been able to.
Keep up the good work. 👍

@PhoenixPhail Just wish I would've wanted to try earlier in life and not due to declining health.

@Levenrack But you did do it nonetheless 🐞🪻

@Levenrack It would seem there wasn't a readiness for it then. BUT, there certainly was when you started, and you have it now. That's reason for celebration. 🥳
