60 days AF today, longest stretch in 40 years.

54m, Just wanted to shout out to my internet friends on SD that today I am 60 days AF. Holy shit. Can hardly believe it.

The last 10 days or so things have started to settle down a bit. Been through anxiety, panic attacks, crippling depression, fatigue, excitement, hope, calmness and fear. All bouncing around with no consistent rhyme or reason.

Have lost 25 pounds, heartburn is virtually gone, lost the puffy face and bloat, been walking for exercise and spending more time in the sun.

Reading a bunch of quit lit and listening to sober podcasts. Learning a ton about alcohol and the poison that it is. TBH the more I learn the less I crave the shit.

Letting the past be, focussing on the present, and looking forward to the future.

So grateful to each and every one of you for being willing to share your experiences and stories. This sub has kept me going on this journey.

Thank you Thank you!

and... IWNF\*\*\*\*\*\*DWYT!
