Day 8 not drinking (lemmy.zip)

I have not had a drink since last Saturday and also started taking my naltrexone again yesterday. I feel confident now about not drinking these upcoming days and rest of summer. I just want that same fulfilling sensation I used to get prior to having my first drink. I still do THC but not in heavy doses. Eventually I'd like to stop that and just me naturally high on life but one thing at a time. Basically just checking in on here. God bless everyone trying to stop drinking. You got this

I'm really proud of you. And I believe in you, because you want sobriety more than escape and excuses.

Congratulations - massive step. I supported my partner to quit a few months ago and naltrexone absolutely helped, but mindset is also so critical and you've got the right one. You've got this!
