How timely a thread this is! I quit alcohol and cocaine exactly one year ago, July 26, 2014, and I've never felt better. I'm going out more, eating less, have more energy, getting interested in new things, etc. Of course, now that my "buffers" to the world are gone, it's interesting that my Asperger's symptoms have increased somewhat. As alcohol was a social lubricant I find I can't hang out in crowds like I used to, at least not by myself anyway. Noises just seem louder and I am more easily distracted by lights and sounds. Since I steadily drank alcohol for 35 years you can technically say this is my first time living as a sober adult. Very new territory for me.
Well congratulations then! 1 year sober.
