Day 8.
Not much to say today. Still really want a beer. Still know that one multiplies into over a dozen in the blink of an eye.
Seeing a lot of communities online trying to pool resources and abilities to help others. I want to want to help, as well, but don’t seem to have the motivation or empathy to actually follow through. I know compassion bound with action can help lift one’s spirits, but that first small step still eludes me. I will continue to consider what I can do, and hopefully act on it soon.

it’s still early in your sobriety, take care of yourself for now. I’m sure the world will cope OK without you for today. Well done on 8 days.

I have been sober for 7 weeks…had a niggling voice about drinking…just my shadow self trying to make an appearance…i don’t crave to be honest,my first week sober was horrific,…onwards and upwards,.had a stressy morning ,then a good walk in the woods with all 3 kiddies,they are part of me 
…watched The Joker this evening with my eldest,not sure on that one,bit too close on some parts of the film for me, uncomfortable viewing if y know what I mean… still… looking forward to the next batman

Day 506. Good therapy session today, but only partial success knocking things off the to-do list. However, to be compassionate to myself I am trying to acknowledge that I did pretty okay for how I’ve been feeling, and it was more than strictly necessary. Also, I’m quitting coffee for a while and that’s been distracting.

You’re still working on important things and not giving up on yourself and I think that’s amazing! Continue to show yourself compassion and grace. You deserve it.

Hello everyone im new on here. And well since NA and AA r shut down right now i thought this might b a positive thing for me and maybe help others. I’m am an addict. 10+ yrs i am 5 days sober this time around. The longest i was sober for was 2 yrs… I recently just lost my husband in october. Its been so hard unbelievably hard but i think i finally realized i cant keep fucking up i actually need to do this and the right way this time. Im doing it for my husband atm but hopefully itll be for me eventually atleast i have a motivation. That’s the first step basically. Wanting it and having some kind of motivation. Well anyway hello to everyone if anyone wants to talk plz message me!

Day 555 
Another co worker sick so that’s two out of five. Having a majore problem now. This week is covered, but what about next week? Going to seek help in another stores, hoping they have someone who can give us a hand. I’m stressed and I do not like the feeling it gives me.
Going to dig up my meditation app and yesterday I stated writing in my diary again (last writing was from 3 years ago!). I have to find some air to breath again.
Link to free meditation app with loads of meditations and breathing exersizes, music, etc.
