I just finished day 32. Many of my friends stayed up until midnight last night so they could have a drink and still say they made it through Dry January. I was worried that I’d give in at midnight too, so I went to bed. I am happy I made the choice I did, ans I hope I can continue to stay strong for another minute, hour, day, and month.

day 92 and day 52 had the craziest and most realistic drinking and smoking dream I’ve ever had. Even while I was having it my brain was telling me this is bad, this actually isn’t one of them dreams, this is real, I could taste it, feel it and smell it. When I finally woke up for real I had to lay there and check I’m not too hungover for work. That cigarette was beautiful. :joy: :joy: :joy: :joy: :joy:.

Checking in on day 14. 2 weeks clean :muscle::muscle::muscle:

My recovery begin 1,5 year ago, but I keep relapsing. I have a jar full of white badges from NA and CA. I never wanted to work on the 12 steps because I don’t want to share my trauma’s with someone else. What I’ve learned is that fellows with a long cleantime have a sponsor, working the steps and doing service at the home group.
Today I go to my sponsor to talk about step 1 :slight_smile:

Day 503 :coffee:
Went out to a gem shop 1 hour driving away from here. But sat in the car sleeping the whole time. So feeling better but still not better :blush:
Tomorrow is my birthday and I found a beautiful stone as a birthday present:


In Dutch it’s called Coelestien or “Engelensteen” (stone of angels). In English I think you call it Celestite:

I like stones very much and I have many :heart:

14 days again good sign you keep going and keep returning to the tables.

Once we accept we need to do a little more then just not use we can find a new way of living!

Good idea to accept that it works if you work it :pray:t2: I’m at step, 4 going to discuss it next week… And it is a bunch of reflection and to sooth your mind… There is not much we don’t allready know.
Just time to learn to love ourselves a little. One step at a time. You’ll get there!
