Top of the week to you chaps! Hope all is well. Once again, here is our weekly check-in thread for posting status updates, concerns and struggles we’re all going through. Feel free to vent, lament, rejoice however you need, we’re here for each other.

For myself, I’m on day 26 of no alcohol and I feel great! Been going to meetings and getting back involved in the community. Each day just is better than the next, a far cry from my days wasting away, crying into a whiskey bottle. I’ve really found a reinvigorated and renewed life. It’s absolutely amazing. I still have moments of sadness and doubt but they’ve definitely become fewer and more managable. It’s great to feel good about life and about myself again. I can’t wait to see what this all feels like 6 months and especially a year in. I wish you all the same joy I’ve found, if you haven’t found it yet then I pray very soon.
