Hey everyone,

I loved the little quote down the bottom so I included it aswell.

I’m about 10 hours away from a full week. It’s been a rough week but it’s had some beautiful moments.

Todays reading was about the maintenance side of sobriety; it helped me realise the last couple days have been harder because I started feeling good, and stopped working at it as much as possible. I was clingy to the early days and I fought hard. I’m still fighting hard but it will only become more difficult than it has to be if I dont push into sobriety 100% . I find it’s the one time being all or nothing comes in handy. And I’m all in for my sobriety.

I’ve been attending meetings but they have been intense. Socially, even outside NA, I think I’ve been giving way too much away. I’ve been trying to keep busy, which really helps, but at the same time I am running full steam ahead into EVERYTHING and I can feel my motivation declining and i am feeling a it burnt out.

I just need to keep fighting. I’m working on day 7 and Just For Today I will do the right thing over and over again, until…well until nothing. I will keep doing the next right thing.

There is beauty in failure. I have failed 1000 times, and thanks to all the love and support on this forum, as well as the program, I am able to fight for another day. The beauty isnt in the outcome, but in a journey of loyalty to self improvement. Its found in not settling for less than who I am. I cant figure out who that is when I’m using. Sitting with myself is torture. I am feeling an immense amount of discomfort, but itll pass and I am grateful for the little moments of joy I do get to experience.

Well done for another sober day lovelies.

Morning team,

Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaay I’m so excited! I made it to a week again. I’m working on day 8 and I am soooooo excited. I didnt want to future trip, so I didnt wanna get too excited before hand but now that I have passed 7 I AM STOOOOOOOOOKED. Now to work on day 8!

I had a great sleep slept like a log! I woke up tired but I am starting to get some more energy, making my way through my coffee and weetabix :blush:.

Today I will hopefully get to hang out with a friend again, then a meeting, then seeing my mum. Throughout the day I have some study to do. And chores to get the house sorted.

I am feeling mentally good today. But still cautious about the potential triggers. I cant let mg guard down, but I feel like it’s okay to be excited about getting this far.

Today will be a good day! I love you all.

:heart_eyes::heart_eyes: Agreed!! How are things with you?

What job are you aiming for? How exciting!

Things are okay. Am writing poetry on insta loving that.

It’s a trainers position to train people which are distanced from the job market.

Here I come day 10.

Stacey, dont let your heartache steal your victory. Dont let the decisions of other people make you feel like less of a person. Dont let how you feel about yourself decide anything about your sobriety. You made it this far by doing the next right thing. The opinions of others change nothing. You deserve to live a clean and happy life and that is your focus right now. If the people you love cant see that, that’s on them. It’s okay to say no. It’s okay to share your feelings. You are not awful and selfish for wanting to do what’s right. Try to be kind to yourself today and let’s get to day 10 together.

Love from Stacey.
