I thought I was keeping better track lol I just have a browser tab on my phone "how many days since Feb 24th" guess I forgot to refresh the page. I missed my big 300 but things are going well. I rarely get cravings or tempted even if I sometimes think about it from time to time. I'm very lucky to have gotten this far and for it to have been relatively easier this time around. I was a binge drinker with no limit. I'd drink until whatever I had available was gone or I'd pass out/throw up. I tried quitting many many times with no real success. Maybe it was the results of my liver test showing moderate damage and lowered processing abilities. Or the excruciating muscle cramps that had me in the fetal position more than a couple times. Whatever it was, I'm thankful that I've gotten this far. I'm able to admit that I had a problem, and that even if I miss it, I'd just spiral out of control like I do every time. So my relationship with alcohol is pretty dead to me. It feels good. There's a lot going on in my life that booze would make go away for the time being but being able to work on those things without a hangover or ignoring it completely has been great for my overall health and well-being. I hope everyone has a chance to feel this way some day. It's not impossible! Have compassion for yourself if you make a mistake, don't do what I did and say, "well I'm at day 0 again so why bother?" It took me years to get out of that way of thinking and then I started to go longer. Hope this helps someone. Good luck friend, you can do it!
