Hi Sober Squad 😊😁

Hope everyone is doing well, just thought I'd ask ya'll what 1 of your favourite benefits are of quitting / interrupting your alcohol intake?

For me, it's discovering my love of reading. I have an actual hobby now !! I would never have discovered this had I not stopped / interrupted my drinking. Reading has opened up a whole new world for me.

May have to buy more book shelves 😬📚

It's been awhile since I dropped in, I hope everyone is doing well, making progress and finding peace. I just checked ny app and I'm at 942 days, but if I had to list my favorite benefit of quitting is not thinking about drinking all the time. I also now realize that I looked forward to drinking more than the drinking itself. In hindsight, drinking had taken the place of a lot of good things that most of us take for granted. A good night's sleep, a remembered and deep conversation with a loved one...the list goes on.

GOOD MORN Just dropping in to say HI to all my working-toward-sobriety warriors regardless of which stage of sobriety we are at!!

I've been attending some Freedom rallies in my area...yesterday's was in London Ontario with 5,000 people who came together to support the police officers, paramedics, healthcare workers and others in Canada who are facing an unpaid leave/termination of their jobs for not wanting a medical intervention forced on them. Is it ok that people are losing their jobs/careers they have worked their entire lives for making a personal medical decision? I think not!!

As we all wear our poppies in the coming weeks in remembrance of those who risked and gave their lives in various wars to fight for our right to choose how we want to live our lives, let's remember what that poppy stands for! If we don't know what the constitution of our country includes or our what our fundamental human rights are, please do some research, because the measures that are being taken currently in response to this health crisis is infringing on many of those rights....in one word they are "illegal."

Regardless of what our personal choice is, whether vaxxed or not, we need to stand together in unity for freedom. I know that your country is becoming divided on this issue as are those in my country...THIS is not the country I was born into and I so hope that supporting those who are fighting for us "legally" to maintain the rights of our FREE countries, we will be able to heal together!!

I am wishing peace on all of us here regardless of where we stand on this issue, PLEASE, let's stand together to maintain our freedoms, because once they are gone our kids & grandkids may be the recipients of a very different world going forward.

Hello ALL....SO quiet on here these days! I hope everyone's ok

hi beka, its been 1294 for me.April of 2018 . Gotta say, I sure dont miss anything about it. The guilt, the anxiety and shame involved . Plus the money I have saved. Also, seems to have gotten easier too, which is a relief. Keep up the good work and it continues to pay off . .........best wishes to everyone

Hi friends! I''m still doing well enough. Not 100 percent sober. Just can't build that momentum. But not daily drinking either which is good.

Since turning 50 two years ago, even two cocktails messes with my sleep, racing heartbeat, hangxiety, and horrible sleep.

Even when i'm tempted, I ask myself, do you want to sleep tonight or not? Usually I choose good sleep.

Got my 4 month chip today!!! Still going strong!
