TODAY is 100 days sober for me. Alcohol slowly took over and was destroying my life. A while back I got this DM (pic) from one of our autist frens here who's in the same battle. Is "The Awakening" in the room with you right now? Join us! WE ARE THE AWAKENING. Every change matters. Let's GOOOOO!

Bro. Sobriety rocks. After decades of fighting my demons with alcohol, today I'm 100 days sober, the longest time in 30 years. The best part is when I wake up the following morning after NOT going on a bender I know I didn't say stupid shit to someone, I am at peace that I didn't ruin another friendship.
I was using to cover up for (the usual) my anxieties, autism, awkwardness, and fear of myself, really. We all have something, frens.
In a yuge way I owe being sober to The Awakening and the frendly community of this board. Suddenly I realized, WE ARE KICKING ASS. Why not kick ass right here at home, for me? WE ARE DRIVING THE DEMONS BACK TO HELL WHERE THEY BELONG. Why not kick my own demons back to hell, where those stupid fuckers belong?? We all have the power of change inside us to really make a difference both in ourselves and in the world. So why not me? So I'm in AA, I'm going to the meetings twice a week, walking 13km every day (I've lost 33 lbs so far, LOL, OK, 30) and I'm reorienting my priorities.
And why not you? You're not alone. You don't need to do it alone. Anyone that feels like joining The Awakening is welcome. FROGS! Tired of being boiled? Jump out of that hot water and LET'S FUCKING GOOOO.
Before I go if you haven't seen it, you'd love this hilarious Craig Ferguson "Late Late Show" monologue about getting sober and getting into AA. It's time. For all of us. And remember, the AA people are very near to the front of the telephone book! πΈπ
