I'm in my 7th month going on 8th. Unfortunately I've got the flu and feel like total shit, but I'll tell you what being dope sick is much worse than the flu. There is an entire mental aspect with dope sickness that makes it completely intolerable.

I hope I never have to live like that ever again. I have been doing better than I've ever done. I celebrated my first sober birthday (30) Christmas, New year's etc.

I had to first give myself to the steps, and admit I had a problem. Easy enough to see, the hard part was building a relationship with my higher power. I spent so long hating my God, and myself.

What a forgiving humane God we are lucky to have.

Good morning ya'll.

'On awakening let us think about the twenty-four hours ahead. We consider our plans for the day. Before we begin, we ask God to direct our thinking, especially asking that it be divorced from self-pity, dishonest or self-seeking motives. Under these conditions we can employ our mental faculties with assurance for after all God gave us brains to use. Or thought-life will be placed on a much higher plane when our thinking is cleared of wrong motives.'

This thread active anymore? I thought seriously about drinking yesterday, and I had a nightmare just before waking up this morning, this seems like a place to share it.

My daughter was a little older than she is now, probably 6 or 7. She said "I'm afraid I'll never see you again!" and I said "If I ever drink again, you probably won't!"
Then I woke up. Creepy...

Hi, Meg!
Go easy on yourself, ok?
God willing, I'll have ten years sober in May and I STILL have drinking dreams. Not a day goes by that I don't think about drinking in some shape or form. Mostly, the urges are fleeting but some days I have to exercise a little more vigilance.
That used to bother me.
I'd have (what my wife jokingly calls) a 'wet dream' (she's in recovery too) and I'd wake up feeling guilty, that I'd done something wrong. I felt I'd never be able to stay sober. I'd worry that the thoughts of drinking meant I wasn't doing enough. I was envious of the members that shared that their Higher Power had removed the urger to drink. Why hadn't mine? What could I do better? Where am I failing?
The simple answer is, I'm NOT failing. I'm an alcoholic and alcoholics want to drink. Fish want to swim. Birds want to fly.
The difference is that I'm an alcoholic in recovery and I now have the CHOICE whether I drink or not.
God didn't intervene and remove the urge to drink. He didn't take away the dreams.
Ok. So be it.
I'm at a point in my life, and my recovery, where I'm cool with that. The dreams, the urges, they keep me sharp. They keep me from getting lazy. They remind me daily of how far I've come. They keep alive the deep sense of gratitude that I have for my life today.
How great is that, huh?
I get to live every day with a heartfelt thankfulness and recognition of the blessings in my life. Who gets THAT? EVER?
Do you think 'normies' ever get to experience that? Heck no!!!
We are blessed beyond belief and all we have to do is make the right choice, one day, one moment at a time.
Don't drink. Reach out if we need help. Trust in our Higher Power.
If you and I can do those simple things, then we get to live a miracle- the miracle of a life filled with gratitude, purpose and contentment.
We are the lucky ones, you and @bigdaddybrink1 and I. We are blessed with the challenges that forge character and commitment and awareness of the gifts we've been given.
Embrace the dreams. Embrace the urges to drink.
Use them as the fuel to power you through to the next step.
Please, feel free to post here as often as you need to. No challenge is too small or too great that it can't be shared and a weight shared is a weight lessened.
Thanks for sharing and thanks for being here!

Dream sounds like it may have been a blessing, Peg. You had drinking on the mind and got a good reminder as to why you shouldn't. No better reason to stay sober than your kids. That's what keeps me going. Hope you are feeling better.

Very cool and congratulations!
I had six years in May.
I work a Twelve Step program as both a sponsee and a sponsor.
I've attended more funerals than I can count but every so often, I get to see that spark come back to someone's eye...
Thanks for starting the thread.
I am fortunate enough to have been that sparkle. I going into my eighth month of sobriety and have myself, the hard work, going to group religiously even if I don't want to, and my sponsor to thank.

I am my biggest project. Aside from coil smithing, I'm my biggest project.

I want nothing more than to help guide people out of that dark fucking hole, and let em know if I can (chronically homeless for over 10 years, recovered in a great albiet ghetto rehab... ) And have made 8 great months.

Thankful, grateful, those words don't even come close to explaining how I feel. Not to beg, get into fights, shot once, stabbed twice. I'm done. I've had enough.

It's time to start living a life worth living. You gotta dig deep, and find that possibly microscopic glimmer of love and hope. Hold on like a mother fucker.

Good morning ya'll.

'On awakening let us think about the twenty-four hours ahead. We consider our plans for the day. Before we begin, we ask God to direct our thinking, especially asking that it be divorced from self-pity, dishonest or self-seeking motives. Under these conditions we can employ our mental faculties with assurance for after all God gave us brains to use. Or thought-life will be placed on a much higher plane when our thinking is cleared of wrong motives.'
