If Your Suffering From an Addiction Should You Feel Proud of 15 Days Sober?

Question by cutelagayguy: If your suffering from an addiction should you feel proud of 15 days sober?
Or is it a little too soon for celebration ? When do you get to say “I’m finally free of drugs and alcohol?”

Best answer:

Answer by Jon
wow 15 days is great!

I wouldn’t say that your “finally free” until like 2 months though, cuz if you say it now you’ll feel easier about starting back. Wait a few months to think of yourself as clean.

Good luck

Answer by Rico
Any day that you stay clean from illicit drugs of any kind is a reason to feel proud.

I’m not sure of any other drugs, but they say that after 12 weeks of not smoking or using nicotine replacement you can call yourself a ‘non smoker’
