That is a huge achievement ❤

I’m happy for you. Way to go!

He sounds like an incredible human, but the fact he had to work 3 jobs with such health issues enrages me beyond belief.

Absolute madness to have to pay for lifesaving drugs / treatments.

Every day is a victory

But you did it! I always think about how long I have been sober-whether its three weeks, three months, three years...even three days.....I just think to myself, " If I break down and do this, I 110% know I will have to get sober again. Is this-whatever it is insert here-worth having to live thru every single day of the past number of--days -weeks-months-years--, from day one, again?! Wish I had known about that thought six years ago( sober 8 years, and then six years...with two stupid days in between) re-living those 8 years, the first two I would not wish on the devil himself. If I had only known that, I would have eagerly suffered thru that first day I fell off wagon, hands down. I would have hung on to that thought, and called somebody, and been 14 years sober today. I have to look at it as, it had to happen to teach me that, and, so somebody I don't know "out there" will keep this thought with them, and it will save them from paying for one day or two, with doing years over.

You’re a tough one! Well done, you!

One day at a time. You are doing great!

You won that one, feel good for yourself.

I've got 14yrs. I wish I could tell you that after so many months it gets easier, but that would be a lie. I can tell you that some days, weeks, months, are way easier than others. I will also tell you this.....you deserve this. You deserve to be happy, healthy, loved, & respected in you sobriety. Don't let anyone tell you different. Don't let anyone make you feel less than because you're in recovery. I sometimes forget that I am worthy. Even after all this time. Keep on keeping on.

That's great - good job focusing. **here's the secret to life I've learned so far. Happiness has too many external variables that can affect yours. But JOY, doing things that bring you joy - playing video games, hugging your dog, any and everything that brings you joy at home is critical. Happiness can be upset easily, joy...the outside world melts away when you're filled with joy

Congratulations. Every day may be a battle, but every day can be a victory too. Remember your hard won victories, and when you are struggling remind yourself: that was a hard days fight too, and I won then, I have the strength and determination to get through today too.

each day at a time. they were so many day when i get home from work driving along the river i said to myself: i could take a bad turn and just get crash in the river and all will be done. but no. push it to another day for my kids.

Eric, that was a strong thing to do. I'm proud of you.

it gets easier , its slow at first but please stick with it , you're doing great

Take some solace in that you are inspiring others. Hang on to your persistence.

But you’re doin it👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 and you’ll keep doing it everyday.

[Pauline] nothing is worth it. Be good to yourself.

Cannabis have helped many people to quit drinking. Me included. Legislation is another thing but I value my health more than some law that breaks human right.

Good for you xx

The good thing is that you know that it's hard, but not impossible. ODAT.

This was quite clearly posted on Twitter in April. Stop falling over yourselves to tell him how great he's doing. He can't see any of it.

Hugs for you and knowing the struggle is real.

Keep up the good work. Cheering for you!!

Keep going. Good luck.

Well done man......

Yes but — YOU DIT IT!!!!!!!! a so proud of you

Stay strong. Hang in there. The state of being sober is fragile. One drink and it's gone. I do believe it gets better over time. All the best to you.

I'm 2 and a half years sober 👍 100% sober. It is hard. I struggle with Borderline Personality.. And in a severe sense. Not picking up a self destructive tool is some hard work living with emotional pain and dysphoria.

Good for you for fighting the good fight!

Every day is a struggle. But just remember that the more days you are sober, the closer you get to beating those impulses and cravings.

You are very brave

One day at a time is a hard row. Congratulations on sticking to it!

Good for you 👍

I'm so proud of you.

One day at a time. And you figured it out. Keep trying.

You sir are a Hero I mean that, you will be fighting a war for the rest or your life. I wish my dad had your fortitude, he died choking on his own vomit at age 53. Keep up the fight!

Relying on pills is not the way to overcome alcoholism.

Well done. Keep fighting

I quit drugs 4-1/2 years ago. Drinking is still a struggle. Excellent work!

I use to drink every six months or so before pandemic, but thanks for lockdowns and living alone I've managed to drink everyday, I wake-up everyday and first thing in my mind is to go to liquor store and grab a bottle of whisky. I've never been like this and now I can't control myself, lost quite a lot of weight and desire to do any physical activity, I use to cycle at-least 20 miles everyday now I'm lost. But I do know that there is hope, I wish there was professional help available but I think I'm on my own.

Every day I don’t let depression win is a victory

You did your best, that's all you can ever do!

You did it though. :)

And just for today, I don't have to drink!

Yay!!

It is really hard but you're doing great! Keep on going finding strength to win, you deserve it!

Sometimes, you have to hold on and wait the day out. Go to bed, get up panned do it all again. You did good. Keep it up, and most importantly, know you deserve to be sober, and happy.

One day, one hour, one minute at a time. So proud for you!

You deserve the fight! Every minute of everyday

You are amazing! Keep up the good work. One day at a time
