I got sober at 33 and thought too much of my life had passed by but after a couple weeks and meeting others aged 50-70 getting sober I quickly realized how lucky I was to get sober at my age and how much potential life I still might have...made it 5 years this July and looking forward to 10+

I’m the same age, with more relapses and detoxes than I can count on my hands. I had never thought about it that way, but it’s a great perspective. I’m at day 93 today, feeling sturdy as fuck.

Congrats on your sobriety! 5 years is a huge feat and I’m sure it feels amazing! ☺️✊🏼

Congrats on 93 days, stay strong and when you're feeling weak remember how strong you were to get this far and reach out for help!
