I have been sober the longest time since my divorce with the help of counseling,meetings and determination... Just saying..... Scotch is a drug

Congrats to Arabian (and all the others on EF)
One day at a time.
15 years for me and loving every minute of it.

^5! way to go, Ricco! < rhymes

I think that you would agree with this, we keep talking in days, months, and sometimes years. It's really just one, after one, after one, then another day, infinity. It can and often is a shorter period, 5 minutes, HELL sometimes one! But my point is it's just as the saying goes, "one day at a time"...

Therefore, who is the person with the longest sobriety?
The person who woke up first today.

Yeah it does. I don't want to have missed out on anything because I was drunk. Whether it's calming her down from crying, changing a poopy diaper, anything. It's still hard for me. The habitual part of it makes me so annoyed and angry sometimes. That passes and I feel a bit better. It just feels like as soon as I get done with work, I'm on edge for the rest of the day. Even if I work out until I'm sick, I get this anxious energy and feel like I could punch someone's face so hard my hand would break through the back of their head.
