The ad is still going strong. However, I don’t need a very big folder to organize all of the applications. 🤣 #mediumwriters https://t.co/ptAGIN8P1C

@tiredofdrinking I believe in you. Get back up, get going in the right direction. You CAN do this.

[Brooke Joy @brookejoy99]

@mustbmore Yes! Be proud. I’m sure day 3 will be an amazing day. Stay focused on where you’re heading, not what’s behind you. You’ve got this.

@recoveryisfirst Amazing! Keep fighting. You’re worth it and they’re worth it.

I write to stay sober. I stay sober to write. What are you doing to stay sober today? 💕#soberlife #RecoveryPosse #WritingCommunity #medium https://t.co/l6QhZyjzI5

[Brooke Joy @brookejoy99]

@JSoberstone You’ve got this. One foot in front of the other. You’ve stayed sober before and you’ll do it again. Just don’t stop fighting.

@MeetingHeard This brought a flood of emotional memories for me. I used to get notes like that and texts with the same message. It’s painful, but wasn’t enough to make me quit. Today, I’m over a year sober and my child and I have the BEST relationship ever. It gets better, I promise. 💃🏼💕

@Hope_Resist I started sleeping well around month 4. However, even with 2-4 hours of crap sleep - the way I felt in the mornings still beat a hangover or waking up still wasted. 💕 Keep going. 16 days is amazing.

@neeramitra @Medium Great way to be of service. https://t.co/aXmsJpR7nP

@AbenaTalks @Medium @garyvee I think it’ll make for refreshing, raw, interesting reads.

[Brooke Joy @brookejoy99]

@YourRecoveryCon One foot in front of another. You got this! Keep your head up, we handle things the best we can with what we have in the moment. Just keep going!

@queenie4rmnola You need to tell him sternly “just wait until your father gets home” a few dozen times throughout the day. It works for tired moms everywhere.

[Brooke Joy @brookejoy99]

@LiftingHumanity I always try to think: “will proving them wrong accomplish anything productive, or just make me feel victorious for 8 seconds?” Then I know what to do next.

[Brooke Joy @brookejoy99]

@MetalDumpCan I’ll take your “good job” Gunner. I think most writers on Medium appreciate any and all engagement. All hail the mighty Algorithm.

[Brooke Joy @brookejoy99]

@YourRecoveryCon No. I think if we make ads illegal that’ll only make it cooler to young rebels. What would be next, banning it in restaurants? Alcohol can be very dangerous, but so are many other things - like Oreos and fast cars. We can’t expect the world to change because we have to.

[Brooke Joy @brookejoy99]

@JSoberstone 👏🏻👏🏻That is awesome. Congratulations on your freedom.
