@LovelyLya, nice to see you again. You’re always welcome here.
And I’m checking in at day 64. I had a good day yesterday. I kept good custody of my eyes and mind. I got a lot of help and I appreciate everyone that gave me support yesterday. Thank you.

But they aren’t seeing the real you. My suggestion is to let go of caring about what other people think. They aren’t living your life. They aren’t suffering from your addiction like you are. You have to believe that you are worth getting sober for and you have to want it no matter the cost for it to really “stick”. Yes, it matters what people think to an extent but what others think can’t dictate our actions. Because when we live that way we’re not living authentic lives. You’re living a lie of what you perceive others want from you. That’s no way to live. And it may be feeding your addiction. Maybe you think you can’t be happy go lucky without the drugs? I don’t know. But do this for you because you are worth it and worth fighting for. The people who truly love and care for you will stick with you. Those who don’t? Well you probably don’t need them in your life anymore.

Checking in on Day 31…
This is officially the longest I’ve gone without alcohol since a near death experience over 26 years ago involving copious amounts of alcohol, an indoor pool and a covered outdoor pool. Dove into the indoor pool at a hotel and swam underwater to the outside section of pool only to discover it was covered due to winter 
. Total darkness and managed to somehow find my way back inside as I was blacking out for good. My wife at the time was 8 months pregnant with our first child.
I stopped for 7 months after that scare but gradually convinced myself I could moderately drink again. Quit dozens of times over the years for a week or two after bad hangovers but never made it a full month so I’m pretty damn proud of myself today.
Thanks to you all for your support!

Day 53. It’s been a rough few days due to several issues flying at me all at once. I am staying secure in my sobriety and using my network and AA meetings to help cope. Have a good day, all!

660, hanging in there. Weird year so far. I’m going to stay in my lane, try to be more responsible for my state of mind and just continue on with my sobriety.

Today is my daughter’s school play of Jack and the Bean Stalk. My husband’s parents will come. I still harbor resentment that they told me I wasn’t making enough effort with my children (and that was before my drinking got bad, it is probably an excuse, but I really do feel that was one thing that really pushed me into feeling really alone in this country), but it was years ago, so have to let it go. There is also a pay-as-you-go yoga class I might try.
