Awesome! I agree that at least big aware of what you consume is a big step in the right direction. I do but always not consume it lol but at least I know what it is

Another day sober and getting things done. With all this extra energy I can’t stop cleaning the house. Usually I plan or put off when I clean. The counters were dirty grimy. I just cleaned them right then and there. I noticed the toilet was dirty before bed. I just went and cleaned it before bed. Well I had to clean the sink and mirror too. What’s happening to me?
Good 
y’all.
Made it another day.

Thank you for being here and your insights. They were meaningful to me.

Just finished day 19… tomorrow is my birthday and I will be spending it with people that care about me (and my cats) so that’s a good thing. I have continued to lose weight from the lack of calories from alcohol. There are still 12 days until payday and I still have plenty of money in my account, despite having been out to eat 6-8 times this month (not at all normal for me). I am beginning to think I underestimated my “daily spend” because I was in denial about it. I am hopeful that I can put this newfound money to good use—mainly paying off debt—instead of wasting it on frivolities.

Checking in. It’s a good day to be sober. MLK day in the US, a day for the courage to change what we can change, for the better, both in ourselves and in the world around us.

That is such a sad and instructive story, @Jane.c. I bet many of us can relate to using substances for pain medication and then it gets out of hand. I get flare ups of back pain especially when I’m not doing enough yoga, and I’ve definitely used alcohol to self medicate, with predictably negative results. I just got a little coin to carry around to remind me about this, to help talk to the voice that says “have a drink if it hurts”. My coin says “Pain is necessary, suffering is optional.” I can be separate from my pain. I am sorry about your friend.
