Tanhk you @Dolse71 Paul. It’s 7 days for me this is not such a great achievement because I know I can get further. But every day counts

Everyday day is an achievement, I got the alcohol sorted, I hope, but still can’t do a day with no weed.

4 months sober today!
Feeling optimistic and determined to succeed.
Although things may be difficult, picking up that first drink will not solve a thing. It will only add to the difficulties and make things far worse.
“I have a past but I don’t live there anymore.”
Sending hugs and strength to those who need it today.

15.45 Days… Another full day of CE (continuing education). I actually enjoy it. I love the opportunity to network with other commercial brokers as well. It’s so beneficial. Not much to report other than missing being home. I should make it home about 7:30 tonight.

9 Day sobriety here.
Today I think I will go the Starbucks to do my homework for school. I am on a happy trip with all the trauma/addiction work I have done internally and being validated for it. I also may just need to rest because it’s tiresome so listening to my body. I am using all my self regulation tools. The bunnies are out! My floors are swept. Everything is calm and peaceful here.

@Mooije feeling pretty solid about it. Talked it over with my therapist last night. I have plans with friends for Friday night (coffee & discussion) and am making a plan for Saturday to keep me busy. Setting goals I want to accomplish. Also have a friend on standby that I can reach out to in real life here should the need arise. Sunday will be spent with my oldest daughter. Plus of course I’ll be here checking in. Saturday night is my most vulnerable time so I’m considering finding a meeting for the first time. Thanks for asking!

Day 12 and struggling. it’s almost like the physical symptoms of withdrawal are so normal to me that I can get through that because I know it ends. Now almost done with week 2 is where I start to have trouble. I want to take something and really I don’t know why. I feel good, great actually but for some reason I think a pill would make me feel even better. I know it will just start the whole thing over again and I feel good about how many days I have. I’m trying to get busy with the kids and the morning routine but I am super distracted by my cravings. Enough about me have a fabulous sober day all

Checking in. Day 28. Good morning from Texas! About to walk my dog before getting ready for work. I really don’t want to go to work today but at least it’s Wednesday! I’m making a plan for the weekend when I will be alone a good bit of time. Going to put some accountability in place and try to find a meeting Saturday. I’ll have to catch up on the thread later this morning. Time to exercise!

Checking in, day 53!
Busy work day ahead. Yesterday I took a 1/2 day off due to having to go to my sons IEP meeting at school. All went well, then took him to swimming, homework, dinner, etc. A sober normal evening. It is nice.
I feel like I’m waiting for something…but what? I guess this is just anxiety 
. I have to keep telling myself that there is nothing to feel this way about. Just breathe.
