I remember what my life was like when I was drinking, I wake up every morning knowing that I'm an alcoholic, and I know that if I have even just 1 drink my world will end so if I'm gonna have a shot I might as well shoot myself because that will be better than picking up another bottle

Meetings, fellowship, service work, visiting halfway houses & detox centers. That keeps me sober.

I find things that I love to do, and then do them regularly. Things like spending quality time with my son and being the father he deserves, they make me happy, fulfilled, and content. I feel like I am contributing to life. Not just my own, but to his as well. I also do things for myself, and that’s different for everyone. I go running, go fishing, or other things that make me happy. In the end, discover things you like to do, then do them. The entire world is out there for you, now that you don’t have booze/drugs holding you back.

I pray everyday for sobriety. It works every time.

I have a sponsee that I told to do the same. He said he wasn’t sure it was helping. I asked him if he did it today. He said yes. I asked him if he drank today. He said no…Then it worked didn’t it?:slightly_smiling_face:

Spending time with my kids is all the reminder I need to keep me going. They need me to stay sober just as much as I need me to.
