Congratulations to both of you for two days. And I think it’s great that you’re posting and being accountable. That’s still something I have to do (keep sharing with my alcoholic friends and stay accountable).

I can’t stay sober by myself. I need other drunks. We can (and do) do it together. I am powerless over alcohol and my life became unmanageable. If you put me in a room with a bottle, and no treatment, I have to drink it.

I need more/additional power to stay away from a drink today. That originally was my AA group. My network of sober people had more answers than I did. They still do.

I thought I could wrest satisfaction out of life, if only I managed well. That was a lie I told myself. Left to my own devices, I can’t function sanely.

Keep checking in.
