yaaaaaay how are u getting on?I struggle from all the same. I’m doing great on the weed part, but I really struggle with the alcohol, and haven’t begun with the cigarettes… Just wanted to let you know your forum post hit close to home; you aren’t alone but even as you struggle, you were an inspiration to me. I’m starting over too… almost 3 days clean on the alcohol. #KeepingStrongTogether

Checking in at 9 days 14minutes! Getting on with study! What an amazing distraction. I finally found something in my heart that is more valuable to me than being high. Having a buzz. I hated seeing myself chasing after substances so severely. I Thank God everyday for another sober day because if I wasn’t able to gain the insight, knowledge and passion to take my life seriously, id be a junky or meth head by now.(Don’t mean that to sound derogatory i just dont know what else to call it). I would have drowned in my anxiety and PTSD. I couldnt stop focussing on the past or the future constantly and somehow a switch has flicked for me naturally and spiritually where i take every moment, in its own right, very seriously. Getting priorities straight, getting serious about my life and living each moment in life as best I can. All the advice on Christian meditation and mindfulness has opened my heart to the possibility of real change. I am so hopeful for the first time in so long. I’m not afraid of being sober anymore, infact i value it more than anything! I cant be who I want to be dumbed down and foggy all the time. It’s like I’ve put life glasses on. I encourage everyone to really search deep down for what really matters to you. And use that as a stepping stone. A pillar. A foundation for every decision you make in every moment. Why? Because you are worth it. You are valuable. You have something to offer. And you are brave enough to give it a go. So keep trying. Keep going. You owe it to your sober self! 
God bless everyones efforts. Amen! 🕇
@Mandy_Lopez - its nice to hear things like this. Makes me feel sad for people’s struggles, but completely helps me stay strong because I know we are all struggling and not alone. Feeling alone can be so detremental. So thank you for being a stone in my pillar!

Checking in at 10days 16hours 36minutes! So my best best best friend of 10 years came to visit on a suprise visit last night. One day in town for work and she came to spend the night. I was instantly excited screaming from the roof tops to see her. She knows all of my past. Every bit. Has been the one person in the dirt with me all the way. And we had a glimmer of wanting to sink back into our old ways of smoking drinking and drugs. We even got packed up for an adventure for old times sake. Thought about ciggies…opted no. Then went on a mish to an old drug house…they didn’t exist anymore (luckily) but we decided we disnt need to go hunting for it cause we were already enjoying our time together…and sober for once. Then we spoke about going for a drink instead at the pub, and literally got to the corner and turned right to go home instead of left to the pub. Then we got home, around 10pm and sat talking until about 4am about all sorts…SOBER And it totally suprised me that we were 100% encouraging one another to pursue future prospects rather than the substances that infested our entire friendship. It was an amazing night. And while we got super close to making the wrong call, we made ALOT more good decisions last night. Thank God for that little intervention prevention but im so proud we had it in us to carry that through the night! Yay for sobriety and all the amazing support God has allowed through this forum especially! Amen! 🕇
