I know most will understand how much even a milestone

I know most will understand how much even a milestone of 8 days is. It’s bittersweet for me knowing I’ve made it this far even though to those who don’t understand that even 8 short days can feel equivalent to weeks or even months

When I first started this journey I couldn’t make it 8 hours. I made it 1 day. Then 2. And just kept going. Every success story has a day 8. Most success stories have a few day 8’s.

We know how hard it is. We are proud as can be.

Congratulations!! Be proud of yourself for every moment that you get your mind off of it. It really does get easier as time goes on, you're in the hardest part now but someday soon you'll realize that you went all day without even a thought about it.

Tomorrow will be 9 days and after that 10, that’s double digits and that will be big, make small goals and before you know it you will be further away from day 1. You got this, you have support here so keep up the amazing work!!!

We only have today. Just because I’ve not had a drink in 13 months, I’m not more sober than you. Everyday of sobriety is a gift. It works if you work it!
