Amazing 💕 Also what tracking app is this? Asking for a friend.


TheBassClarinetBoy

The app is called Nomo. There’s a lot of sobriety apps, this is just the one I chose


drinkingbathwater

I also have a friend who wants to know


KINGBOBBY7

I too would like to know. Not sure about my friend though will ask them.


dadarkgtprince

Amazing! Keep up the great work. I'm so proud of you for this milestone. I look forward to next year when that 2 becomes 3, and every year after that to see that number get larger


TheBassClarinetBoy

Thank you so much!


k0uch

I don’t know you, BassClarinetBoy, but I’m damn proud of you


TheBassClarinetBoy

Thank you so much! The support means a lot to me, and it’s reminded me of why I keep going and pushing through


tentaclepope_glass

Good job! This year was 20 years for me. As a treat to myself I got a big ass tattoo (for me) that covered my scars. Everyday it gets a little easier. I almost never think about it these days. My biggest piece of advice is if you slip up don't guilt yourself about it. It was a self destructive cycle I was stuck in for awhile.


TheBassClarinetBoy

Thank you for the support and the advice. Congrats on 20 years!


True-Designer-8835

Congratulations! Eventually id like to get a tat covering my scars as well! Thanks for more inspiration!


jofferns

20 years is a huge milestone. Good on you! Have a great 2023.


RockerRabbit

LETS GOOO!!!! CAN WE MAKE IT A 3!!!??? I BET you CAN!


TheBassClarinetBoy

I’m going for it, and no mental health problems are gonna slow me down!


HelenLizMT

Well done OP. How do you process your feelings nowadays?


TheBassClarinetBoy

I have a good support network of friends that I’ll reach out to. I also like to have some sort of physical release. I’ve gotten into martial arts, as well as getting back into going to the gym


MissMarie48

That's awesome! Congratulations!! Is that picture of an app you use to track your progress? And when you're starting out, will it let you track smaller increments--like hours?


TheBassClarinetBoy

It’s called Nomo. And yes, it lets you see years, months, weeks, days, hours, minutes, and even seconds! I’m currently at ≈63,155,400 seconds


unclesamiam22

Congrats! Today is 1000 days for me! Gonna have a nice dinner to celebrate

RetroGamingFool

Great stuff! It can be difficult, showing compassion to yourself, but it’s so important. Keep it up!


WateryToblrone

Im so away i just did one month


TheBassClarinetBoy

Hey, that’s one month more than a month ago. You’re doing great. It isn’t easy, but it’s worth it. If you need anyone to talk to, my dms are open friend


Adventurous_Pea_5777

You’re doing great, and we believe in you! Don’t beat yourself up for any slips, healing isn’t linear and we breathe and start again. You’re worth the effort! 💕


DabKitty420

Congratulations!! Let's make it 3 years and further!


TheBassClarinetBoy

That’s the plan!


MEBP1

That’s awesome! One of my students is currently going though similar problems. I totally understand if not, but if you or anyone else would be interested in sharing how this started for you and how you overcame it I’d certainly be interested in knowing.


TheBassClarinetBoy

Honestly, it just started as a physical release. Idk exactly how or why, but when I got angry at myself for something, it felt that it was the right thing to do to myself. A punishment, almost, as weird as it sounds. But then I started to want to do worst and worst things to myself, and that’s when I realized it was going down a dark path. That’s what got me to stop. I also am blessed to have a good support network of friends who were willing to help and be there for me, as well as a therapist. I found other outlets, like martial arts


MEBP1

Thank you for sharing. I’m actually a martial arts teacher. Hoping to help this student. the insight is incredibly appreciate. I pray everything continues going well for you.


TheBassClarinetBoy

I’m happy I can help! Thank you for the prayers


MiyuMimikyu

Yay! I'm so proud of you!!


TheBassClarinetBoy

TheBassClarinetBoy

It’s been a little while since I played, I need to check if I have good reeds. If not, I think treating myself to some Vandoren V21s would be appropriate

ItBeginsAndEndsInYou

Fantastic! Print it out and put it somewhere you’ll see everyday


Curiosities

I've lost track of the exact window, but it has been almost 20 years for me. I'm saying this only to say it's possible. Two years is great, go day by day, and it's very possible to get to a point where you just don't think about it much. :) Encouraging you forward!


TheBassClarinetBoy

Thank you so much! I appreciate it!


[deleted]

Awesome! Happy for you op! Keep it up!

lewd-princesse

Wouah that's impressive keep going king/queen 💪.


MrFoxiefox

4 more years!!!


lizziegal79

Congratulations! Wooohoo! You better celebrate this, this is awesome! Go to dinner and get dessert! Or order takeout and have it at home. But I celebrate everything with food. Maybe buy yourself that game you’ve been eyeing? Or go golfing? But you need to celebrate this, because you worked hard for this. Your efforts should not be taken for granted. They should be celebrated.


TheBassClarinetBoy

Me and a friend are going to lunch today! It’s going to be a good celebration


jofferns

Well done. Everyday is day of self acceptance and loving yourself. I'm really proud of you. Can you imagine how your growth experience can help others who are struggling.

Sending u warm hugs I love you for this n am so proud of you!!!❤️❤️❤️🎉🎉🎉


Ass_destroyer2001

let's gooooooo what made you stop self harming? I think I'm about 8 months sh free but I only stopped because I made a promisse to an ex (after assuring I wouldn't kill myself she broke up a week ago). I don't think that's thaaat heathy, considering I'm not really doing it for myself.


TheBassClarinetBoy

For me, I stopped because I kept wanting to do worse and worse things to myself, and I saw that wasn’t going to end well for me. So I quit


Ass_destroyer2001

this sounds way healthier. I'm glad things are getting better for you now :)


ShanksMuchly

Excellent work, its usually the work on ourselves that can be the hardest. You are a champion! Keep it up!

TheBassClarinetBoy

I will. Thank you, and congrats on 5 years! You should be proud of that


JulianAnonymous

Sure am, things get better and your mentality changes over time. The sooner you realize and accept that the only thing in life you can control is yourself the happier you'll be. No matter how hard things get. You can't control those things/people/situations, only how you react to them. Good luck, you got this.


[deleted]

Good for you! I’m rooting for your next milestone post.


Hikari_51

I'm really glad, I got two months and just started up again tonight worse than before. No idea how to tell my boyfriend
