Im really sorry you are going through such a difficult time. I don’t know much other what to say other than I’m holding you close in my thoughts.
I’m going to look into ACT that you and @Dutchie are talking about. Sounds interesting and helpful. I hope you some relief from your depression soon. Our minds can be such prisons.

I’ve never been a big day celebrator, as I’d rather focus on success than failure, but this is making me want to smack myself in the back of the head. So stupid, and so not worth it. Did it just lock in and solidify what I already knew, sure. But already knew.
I’m worried deeply about my brokers being able to continue on. Two of them have night jobs that they lost due to this virus. I don’t know how they are going to be able to pay their software fees, but at this point, I mean I could probably help for a few months, but business is at a standstill. Drinking ain’t going to fix that though 
I’m grateful to be sober today. Hopefully I can eat without violently vomiting like yesterday. My hopes are high as this belly of mine is flat out making an absolute racket. Dramatic little effer. Now I just have to get the will to get my lazy ass out of bed to feed it.

Thank you dear friend! I am glad I came right back. In the past I have typically taken off for a while, so whew. I guess progress is better than nothing.
We got this!!

Day 105. Yesterday was a bit of an emotional roller coaster. I know everything is going to be ok. It’s just I’m feeling overwhelmed with all this uncertainty. School is closed. That might be made permanent for the year and that sets off lots of lots of worry about the future of my career, finances etc as I’d need to take leave to be with my little human. Plus worries of my brother who is unwell after dad’s recent death. I know it will all work out, whatever happens. And so many are in such worse positions so I feel guilty voicing my worries but they’re still there. And very real. I’ll take it one day at a time. And breathe. And hold my boy tight. With all that’s going on, I’m loving the quiet in the world right now. it’s Mother Nature’s turn to breathe.
Just guzzled my coffee. Likely a quiet Saturday but hubby is home so I can catch up on some work from home stuff hopefully. Little man starting to go a bit stir crazy lol. Outdoor play today; it’s windy and -17°C (1°F) with windchill. Knock the dust off us!

Day 115. Last time I got over 100 days in a row I started getting complacent, thinking I’d proved I didn’t have a problem. It wasn’t a great response. I went back to drinking. This time, I’m committed to working on it even when I feel stronger. I don’t want to get hung up on the degree to which my drinking has been a problem in the past; sometimes it’s been relatively ok, sometimes it’s been really bad, and to make sure I don’t have a problem in the future, I need to stay away from alcohol. All I need to do is not drink today. The practice of learning to be present, to be accountable, to be brave and truthful and kind, feels like useful training for the current global crisis as well as for sobriety. Being better is a transferable skill.

Oh that’s a tough spot Salty. It’s hard when everything seems to be spinning out & you don’t know what impact it all will have. I think it’s normal to feel scared or at least nervous at these times. You don’t have to feel guilty about that.
Sounds like you’re enjoying the peace in nature at least. That’s a lovely feeling

Thanks Matt 
I also live pretty rural and am a tad introverted so there’s bonuses to all this if I look closely 
The whole isolation stuff doesn’t bother me, it’s more the impact of potential finances and also on my little man but we’re resilient beings!
