Coming up on 3 years, wondering what if I would have taken sobriety serious 10 or more years ago and how much ahead I would’ve been by now.

C’mon CJ! Let’s celebrate 3 years! No need to spoil the moment by regretting the past. You’re sober today! That’s the most important thing! There are so many sick and suffering people out there and would love to be in your place.

It may come off as spoiling but it’s not. It was a thought at that particular moment. Trust me I know people who say they can’t get sober.

I get you CJ. I’ve had quite a ride in recovery as well. I’ve thought what if, but I’m still so grateful for my sobriety today. Congrats my friend

You have a lot to be proud of with 3 years of sobriety. Look at and say the Serenity prayer every day. I say it when my patience gets tested often.To have good sobriety today you cannot look back and go what if….?Resentments and regrets will set you back. I am 10 years sober and life is pretty pretty good!

I think we all wish we had gotten here sooner. We here now and it’s good. My sponsor always says, “your best years are still ahead of you”.
