How it feels to be One Year SOBER

[@chrisfernon689]

Just finished 100 days alcohol-free. I just saw your 100 day video. Now i have just saw your 1 year video to give me insight to my future. Thank you for sharing 😊

Perfect! Exactly what I was hoping for when I made these. Keep it going my friend!

Really enjoyed your video mate. Congratulations on achieving your goals! 4 months into my sobriety journey. Lots of what you’re talking about is resonating with me. Safe to say it’s a shared experience. If you’re looking for the ultimate dopamine hit I’d suggest going for a run followed by a sea dip, ideally first thing in the morning. Guarantee you’ll feel amazing all day and beyond 👍🏻

Hey mate, really appreciate the comment. Feel like I made this channel for people like you so I can be relatable and say that it's worth it! My best mornings are exercise followed by cold plunge, bit of a trek to the sea though ha! Keep it up and keep me posted.

Well done my friend I’m 9 months now it’s so good how things seem to be continuing to get better in life, obviously we have to put the work in but it’s a great feeling, well done on the year!

Thank you and congrats on 9 months, that month was when I decided to bin it forever. Chatted to someone who has just crossed 3 years and he said it continues to get better :).

I'm nearly at 10 months and I am very similar to you but 54 years old. I keep telling people I'm doing a 12 month challenge but deep and part of me is saying I realise now that even two pints in one sitting seems a lot to me. I've not got a money mind and always focused on my health, not a daily or weekly drinker either. My thing is when a planned event with say my Son comes along a feel I should have a drink even if it's just a few sips. I'm sure you continue to live a decent life with alcohol in your life but know your life is better without. I do feel more positive when I say to myself I don't want to drink again and recently found out I may be autistic so I'm also finding out a lot about myself so if you can offer any advice it would be appreciated. Next up, Iron Man 😃👍

Hey Phil, the uncertainty of 'will I won't I' go back to alcohol was just a mental strain and decided to quit made me feel free. It also gave me much more conviction in conversations about it and made that part easier. I did not believe I could have one or two drinks and enjoy it so quitting is the best way forward for my circumstances.

Also, good luck with Ironman, I bottled that one for now to concentrate on running. Massive respect for this.

@@sober-diary Thanks Mate, It's only a thought with the ironman but thanks, I certainly consider myself a non drinker now. I have done 4 sessions of BJJ too, no way I would have done that in my old mindset. Peace out brother 🙏
