Whether you are recovering from past mistakes and bad habits, an addiction, an eating disorder, grief or heartbreak, or anything else, post your small victories in getting over the past.

I’ll start:
I have interests and hobbies now, like Spanish, animals, and coloring.

I can be in a situation where I am completely alone, in complete privacy, where no one who usually snoops on me would "catch" me, and I could completely get away with it - and I still have absolutely no desire to start drinking again.
It's no longer just because of the recriminations, the humiliations around others. I don't drink anymore because I don't want to. :)
