I just wanted to say how happy I am that all of you beat your addictions and are still here with us. After losing someone much to young this week to addiction I am very grateful that you are still here.Anything you lose from being honest
You never really had to begin with.
Sometimes it's not the song that makes you emotional it's the people and things that come to your mind when you hear it.0 -

Interesting read. Looks like Dr Silkworth was on the right track all those years ago. And that some of messages we recieve in the rooms are on the money.

Wasnt on here for my anniversary, & hell was breaking out in Paris. But i celebrated 19 years clean & sober on November 13. Believe me, no matter what happens in life, being sober is one thing you can always know keeps it from being much worse. The serenity prayer anchors me when i feel like im losing my mind. And the "acceptance is the answer..." part of 12 steps & 12 traditions is something I may wrestle with at times, but the concept that "every person, place, thing, situation is exactly as it should be & until i accept things exactly as they are i will not find peace" has made me challenge the inert need to fix things to what i believe they should be & accept things that i dont want to. In the end, it's about courage to change, serenity to accept what i can't & the elusive wisdom to know the difference. Ive found that if I am refusing to let go of something because it's WRONG, & its become all consuming, I'm not serene. I cant believe I dont want to drink, & i know to always be grateful & cautious. No matter what people may do to hurt you, no one can take away my sobriety. And sometimes that is just so damn awesome that i keep moving forward.
Congratulations to anniversaries I've missed, welcome to newcomers & remember that there but for the grace of god, go i. Always reach out for those who still struggle (for one day they may be your sponsor - keeps it in perspective). ✌0 -

Congrats!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!mickeyrat said:10. 10yrs since a decision and one small step toward action.
I hit one year a couple of weeks ago and treated myself to a weekend of concerts plus the upcoming Philly shows to celebrate. This last year has gone by so fast but at the same time was one of the best years of my life. I am very conscious to remember my limitation but would never trade what I have now to go back. Life is so much better this way.

Wow! Congrats to you and welcome.0

Two years clean and sober. As of right now.. Two years ago, I looked at a full can of beer in disgust.. I turned and begged God for help.. I was desolate, alone, and hopeless. Then, in just keeping my focus on God, and not my circumstances... Two years passed!
You guys' friendship has also been a huge part of that journey!! You all still love me, even
Though I talk about God all the time, instead of PJ0
