Congratulations! It’s a journey worth the taking! Just stay sober today. Worry about tomorrow when you wake up. Keep doing that and you will get it.

Stay away from anyone and anything associated with distracting you from being sober, that might mean cutting ties with good friends but if they truly care they will understand, let your yes be yes and your no be no, Good luck

Check with the student counselors. They may have a sobriety program on campus.

Congratulations at a moment of clarity get with someone that’s been doing this for a while and works a program of recovery and ask them who you should ask. kind of weird but to stay in sobriety it takes a program that uses the word we a lot
