Celebrate Milestones!

We are all in recovery. 7 cups is all about empowering us to overcome. Some groups have celebrations for a month of sobriety. I think we should have the same for any kind of victory we've achieved. No accomplishment is too small to share. If you you are socially anxious and you made it through a shopping trip at the mall, then post it here! If you broke up with someone and are now feeling like your normal self again, then post it here. If you struggle with an addiction, and you've been clean a day, a week, a month, or a year, then post it here.

We need to celebrate our victories! Remember, it is okay to relapse - that is part of the journey - the key is to just take a step in the right direction.

We are all in this together! Let's celebrate with one another to highlight milestones passed :)

Today, despite my anxiety and depression, I got myself out of the house and went to the Day of the Dead festival all by myself. I really enjoyed my time there. I didn't even think of the fact that I was there alone.

I've been away from alcohol for a whole week now. It hasn't been easy, I've wanted to give in so many times, but I'm sticking with it

I started keeping a journal today. The first one in years. I have resisted starting one... But after writing in it tonight I feel lighter and able to rest.
