![]() Gabby P. Says: When I get really frustrated and I think I'm not "getting well" fast enough I remember what I heard when I first came around, "You didn't get sick in a day and you won't get well in a day either." It helps me remember that recovery is a process, despite the fact that I hate that word! Anything worth keeping needs to be earned and I think that is true with sobriety. I feel that if my higher power led me on this path and saved my life as long as I continue on it I will recover one day at a time.

Beverly Says: I have been clean and sober for over a year. What an experience. Life is good. I still chose to continue in my out patient rehab. Recovery is a day to day process and on my mind constantly throughout my day. When life's situations become uncertain or complicated, I just remember the phrase "Keep it Simple." Sounds too easy and of course, it is not. This small phrase with such powerful meaning has helped me through many obstacles of everyday life.

Fagan Says: Reading these Thoughts of the Day everyday has made a real impact on my life. I didn't know anything about alcoholism and its destructive nature. The ramifications have carved and scarred a major highway through our lives. Understanding what is really going on with my ex-husband and his addictions has made all the difference.

Jennifer A. Says: Making my sobriety the most important thing in my life has changed everything for me. It has brought about a change in attitude that is noticed by all who know me. AA has truly helped me be happy, joyous, and free.

David G. Says: I have been receiving your emails for a little over 2 yrs. That's how I choose to start my day. I go online every day before work, and on my day off, and read your Thoughts of the Day. It helps me to stay grateful for my life now, by reminding me of the gruesome reality of my previous life.

Shaun Says: To me being an alcoholic is like being in an empty silo with no way to grip the sides. Then when I finally admitted to my self that I had a problem I found that I could hold onto the sides and edge my way out of this great abyss. Once out of the silo I climbed down to the ground, and started one day at a time moving away from this prison, and gradually it disappeared into the distance. Every day I know that I am getting further and further away from that silo. I have been sober now for 14 years.

Ron C. Says: Before AA I judged everything and everyone. Now I am learning to not even judge myself. I was harder on myself than anyone else. Now I simply look at my behavior, and if it is not recovery behavior, I modify it.

Jean F. Says: Something I hear a lot in meetings that helps me with patience during my growing is first, "I came... then I came to... then I came to believe."

Rebecca J. Says: With the start of a new year, I am excited knowing I am starting out clean and sober. I am new in the program with right under 6 months of sober time, and I am so very thankful for every day of it, I look forward to the new strength I am building each and every day.

Clarice P. Says: I'm a very grateful member of Al-Anon. I am most grateful for AA and Al-Anon! My son, an addict-alcoholic, will celebrate 12 years straight and sober this year. This is a miracle!

Elissa G. Says: When I first came into the rooms, some said I would be brainwashed. It was suggested that at that point in time my brain needed a good washing. My way got me there. It was time to listen, take direction, and try a way that helped countless others like me.

Jack P. Says: Our book, "Alcoholics Anonymous," says not everyone who drinks alcoholically is an alcoholic. If you can successfully control your drinking, the chances are you're probably not an alcoholic. If however, you find that your drinking is uncontrollable, then you might just be an alcoholic. Only you can decide.
