beautiful! : )
Congratulations! I’ve just started my blog about sobriety and mental health issues that I’ve experienced in the hope to find some like minded people on the internet because they are really lacking in my social circle! All of my friends love to go out and get hammered 24/7. I’m 10 days sober and would love to be able to look back on 7 months one day!
Oh what an inspiring thing to read on Day 1. Congrats to you Samantha :)
Well done! Very relatable!
Way to go! I just started my journey, today is Day 12! I feel so much better!
You’re doing great!! :)
Great job, Samantha! You can do this; you’ve shown you have the courage, and the commitment to get this far. Keep up the good work!
Thank you, Amy!
I read this post on Saturday, March 24th…which happened to be a very good friends 4 year sobriety date. I can’t say I know first hand what you are going through…but I can say I do as someone who has watched a loved one go through it. You’ve got this. Just. Keep. Going.
Thank you! 4 years is simply amazing! I hope to be able to get there myself. One day at a time though! Thanks for the encouragement!
This is wonderful! Congrats Samantha! Thank you for sharing Christy. :)

Thank you! I’m trying! One Day At A Time, right? :-)
YES! Absolutely one day at a time!!! There is no other way to live. God tell us that . . . “Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.” (Matthew 6:34)
Keep moving forward, ONE day at a time! Hugs xoxoxo
Thank you!!! :-D xoxo
