1- We all start with day one. You will never get to day 2 if you keep putting off that first day. It’s hard, but part of the road to recovery. Jump in-you have nothing to lose by starting. You have that power to decide which road you take.

1- One day at a time– ODAAT. Some days will be tough, others sail by. Reach out when you are craving. Feel the urges and play it forward when you struggle.

1- One day it will get easier. The pull to drink will reduce, you will develop new ways to relax, vent, celebrate.

1- One glass is all I am away from giving it up, at any point. For me, one taste will set it all off. Some can moderate, I can’t (I’m all or nothing)

1- One person can change your life- YOU. We can help – so can Therapy, Detox, Love, and many other tools- but you have to own and be responsible for your sobriety. Treat it like a child, nurture it, care, and protect it. And it will return everything you have been looking for and more.

In maths anything powered to the number one equals itself.

It’s down to you ♥️

Sober Screen Shot #2

The devil made me do it.

He was in a bottle of red. A bottle of white. And always in the tequila bottle.

It’s easier for me to accept that the devil made me do the things that I did…otherwise I would be so filled with remorse and guilt, it would be hard to get out of bed in the morning.

I have read that alcohol changes your brain….affects your brain. Whatever was happening in there, I made some really bad choices.

I don’t dwell on it everyday…but there are some days it weighs heavy.

I am a good woman who made some bad choices. I chose to drink.

Today, and for the last 215 days, I choose a sober life. I will make everyday matter. I will be helpful. I will be kind. I will be honest.

I will not drink.

BOOM Rethink the Drink Community

Some Days

We have to try a little (lot) harder than others
Sometimes we want to throw the towel in
Say we’re too sensitive to win
Or just don’t know where to begin

Start by being here
Start by staying near
Start by taking deep breaths
Your fists in a ball
Learning to face your fear

When you want to cry out
“That’s it
I don’t care!”
There’s a 100% chance
You will care later
(Points to ❤) Right there

We need to be fighters
On those days that feel so cold
So with a warriors heart
We can learn to grow old

There’s also wisdom to impart
From not having had it easy
And you could become part of someone’s survival story 
Please believe me x

We are an independent, anonymous and private community who share resources, support and talk it through every day. It helps to have a community behind you in a world where alcohol is the only addictive drug that people will question you for NOT using
