4 week sober here. I want to tell you guys who suffer from alcoholism, that you can do it. In this 4 weeks i did more productive things than in the last 2 years. My life started to take on a good path, and things finally start to be better. My health (especially my mental health, digestive system and cardiovascular system) is much-much better even in such a short time of soberness. The withdrawals are horrible hell, but if you force yourself to go through it somehow and remain sober, things start to change after 2 weeks. My life was sitting in front of the computer with beers and vodka and nothing else, now i study, exercise,and eat healthy almost every day. All i want to say is you can do it and if you put work into it, you can fix your life.
