Have not had a drink in a week. Yay me. I am so absorbed in academic litterature in preparation for my Master Thesis. Feeling slightly anxious about the upcoming weekend though as it is a “free weekend”. Basically, no schoolwork allowed.
I might just have to occupy the weekend with other stuff…
Maybe knitting?

I get that alot in my head and I’m only on day 11. Like is this forever feels like how can that be. Do i really have a problem. I think of basketball season like how am i going to Get thru it. I feel great not drinking but i am worried that my mind will try to tell me it’s ok you have gone so long have a drink… I love this new person i feel i can become.by the way i will probably be on here nonstop during high school basketball time lol

Hey @anon12657779…thanks! The tickets and Airbnb have already been purchased. My 14-year-old step daughter is coming with me and my husband. We have not set very good examples in the past, she’s aware of how the festival life goes down, it will be her third time. So I am looking at this like a challenge to be of sound mind and show her the change and hey at least I will have another sober person with me. Which I didn’t even think of until I wrote this. Glad to hear you still enjoyed yourself, that does give me hope!

That’s cool. We’ve been to Glastonbury festival for the last 20 odd years. Used to go on our own then took our kids when we had to. That didn’t stop us drinking though.
We haven’t been for a couple of years now, but I had the chance to go and steward with a mate from the band I’m in this year.
My wife even gave me a pass, even though our wedding anniversary falls right on top of the weekend.( We got married in the morning and was onsite in the afternoon)
I chose not to go because I didn’t trust myself.
We were going through a rough patch at this time and I thought I don’t want to risk it. Shame, even though it would have been different without my family, especially my wife, I’ve always wanted to do it on my own.
Maybe next time.
Have fun and have a plan.

Day 78 today, eager, anxious, and also nervous to start work again. Its been fairly easy staying sober the past couple months due to not having any money to spend on drugs. Going back to work and earning money is going to be a huge trigger for me and I already know this. Any advice besides the usual have someone hold my money or put it into a non touchable account etc etc?
Much appreciated

Been a while since we had to say goodbye forever, and I’m really missing this guy. 13 years he was my bud.

Celebrating day 170. Missed a few more check in’s. Been having some cravings, but also having some great moments of clarity.
Hard to keep up with all the new threads. Maybe we’re getting a lot more newbies or I’m just getting busier. Or maybe a little of both.
Good to see everyone working at it. don’t give up. Its worth it!

Sorry for your loss x
Congratulations @Ish. What a great work. 60 days is awesome. I’m getting there one day hopefully.
@keiti also really great work. @KevinesKay you are just rocking the numbers here. Although you are having cravings you are well aware of them and know how to fight them.
@YodaStevie how sad. I am so sorry. 13 years is a long time! Thinking of you
I am checking in sober. Tonight I’m struggling. Trying to keep my mind busy
