Last time I quit the group cuz I didn’t think I had a problem,… Now I know I do and have naltrexone to help with the crazy thoughts…I know the group will welcome me back. They’re gonna say “I told you so” so when I reintroduce myself I’m gonna say “you guys told me so”…to beat em to the punch. I have 6 days sober now and haven’t had one legit craving, although I’ve avoided dangerous situations. But feeling confident
The first month is the worse, then the first three months, then the first year, now I’m dealing with the looks of dissaproval because its all so socially accepted. It’s cool though, we feel empowered. I’m sure you’ll feel it too. They’re on the titanic, we’re on the saving boats arriving.
I have a fantasy imagination of my 7 year old cousin saying to me 10 years from now “take a drink cousin Jon!” And I’ll be able to tell her I’m ten years sober and then tell her all the crazy stories of my days using
That thought motivates me
I’ll develop new and more reasons to stay sober too but I think about stuff like that.
