    I’m a little late but I just wanted to say congrats! 4 years is huge. I’m coming up on 3 years myself and Ive been having thoughts considering going back. Then I remember the misery and it’s just not worth it. Keep fighting the good fight and I’ll be right there with you!

    Happy belated birthday! I relate with you on the finding any excuse to drink. When I finally gave it up, most of what I did ultimately served my need to consume alcohol. I had to reprogram my entire way of thinking too because it was my sole motivation for everything. Life is about more than that.



  • Congrats on the 3 weeks. That’s huge! It sounds like you want to change your life and have taken steps to do it. That is huge and I’m proud of you.

    The things you are feeling are normal and something I can relate to. Navigating a life that I built for myself that is surrounded by alcohol was and is one of the most challenging things I’ve ever done. I personally had to take a lot of my time and prioritize my sobriety before I was ready for social gatherings again. Your milage may vary. That said, once i did go to a party, I realized most people had no clue I wasn’t drinking. I was much more self conscious about the fact. I would bring NA beer with me or Seltzer and most people wouldn’t ask or care what I was drinking.

    Good luck on your journey and I hope you have a kick ass halloween!

    If an attacker compromises the page or does a man in the middle and injects a form that isn’t displayed, it can trick your password manager to auto fill your login information and then send it anywhere. But that’s just one vector and if an attacker has compromised the server, there are a number of attack vectors they could take.
