Default Wow, I about died today...

Just realized I have been sober for almost a week :nunchuk1: can't do that, no way, no how.

So how long has everyone been sober? I know a few have been sober for a few years. I try for 2 days now, seems like an ok compromise to my lifestyle

I've been sober and clean since March 16th. 1991....that's 18 years for you beotch's

We can make fun but it's a serious topic and I'm sure many won't speak up if not treated as such. I find life today (without mind altering substances) much more rewarding. Every morning when I get in my truck I think about how many dents it would have (or not even have it) if I was still drinking.

Good for you Nate, a week is a huge accomplishment!! Seriously, I could never tie 2 days together before I made the decision to try something different.

There is a lot of help on here if you want it, you just have to want it is all!

Mangled, I don't think you're helping him.
