I lost my closest friend a few months ago to alcoholism. I'm just reeling from the pain, seeing the hurt from his family, and getting along in this world without him.

I see these posts and I want you to know how much your loved ones appreciate and depend on you, even if you dont realize it.

Alcohol will kill you. Do this for your family/friends, and do it for yourself.

Hopefully this comment is appropriate.

Absolutely appropriate. Thank you for the support and encouraging words.

I will not be drinking today. But I wanted a drink last night, but when I remembered the reason I stopped drinking, all urges were gone. Looking forward for my new milestones.

This is the longest streak I've had this year - 5days and going

Blue is not drinking btw. I even met some friends and drank AF and coke.

Hell yeah my dude! I'm a daily tracker too! What app are you using for that?

I've been using Cutback Coach or Sunnyside, whatever it is now, for like 2 years, but I never liked how they started the weeks.

Loop habit tracker. It's pretty simple.
