This, give her time. Focus on you and your sobriaty. If your relation is ment to be it will heal.
Be the best you you can be, a sober one
Hope you are going to think diffrently about that, we are here for you. Sorry you don’t feel like it. I believe in you. Hope you believe in you too!
- Coffee. Last day of my holidays and going to enjoy it. Sober and clean. Getting ready for a ride. After that meet with my bestie and go to the same area in town we were yesterday, new development in the harbour, nice and quiet. @Girlinterrupted I’ll never get tired of you even if you get tired of this part of yourself Beth. I think life is better clean and sober for all of us or we wouldn’t be here and I will keep saying that. That’s one but two is you got a place in my heart friend and I want you to be well and as happy as possible. Hugs.
Goodmorning ore goodnight TS buddies 🙋
Day 566
My mental state is definitely better then a week ago. Happy with that!
Looking forward to enjoy the sunny day they say it would be today: 20 celcius (68 fahrenheit).
Spring is finally there!!
We can’t go out, so we are going to chill in our garden. My husband is building a garden house to chill in. We called it “Buts place” after our cat.
But you and me know it’s “my” place now!!
Have a sunny sunday all of you! I’ll will sent you some sun too!!
Checking in on a nice round number with the admission of some sobriety doubt creeping back in yesterday.
Some pictures popped up on Facebook memories of a pub crawl we did 9 years ago. One of the friends involved died a while back and I guess his family hadn’t seen the photos for a while so it got commented on a bit. It made me think about how confident and self assured I used to be. I was a bit overweight but not particularly self conscious about it. Anxiety and depression not a massive thing dominating my life. I just used to not give a fuck and drinking and drug taking are intrinsically linked to that in my (albeit limited) memory of that time.
I know it wasn’t all good - there were lots of shitty things that went with that lifestyle. I know the reasons I don’t drink and I believe in them. But I still have this little pang, of wishing for that hedonistic, carefree me.
I know what I really need to do right now is get out of my own head, let go of my perceptions of what things used to be like and any expectations about what they should be like. The sky is blue, the sun is shining and there is much to be grateful for
95 days sober
Thank you. I honestly look forward to your daily check ins and photos. @SoberWalker and @Mno I just need to find my way back to that person that cared about her sobriety. The whole drama of the world shutting down is a lot, not just for me obviously , but it’s like can I catch an effing break??? If I didn’t have brokers counting on me I would throw my hands in the air and just get a regular job. Oh I don’t know, as a computer or electrical engineer. What my degrees are in. Why am I doing what I’m doing? Oh that’s right, my men. I put my desires aside for my husbands. Good news is that even if I’m not exactly sober at the moment (not currently under the influence) I have made some drastic changes. I have learned how to say no which is huge for me.
It is huge!
Your desires first now. And when the pandemic is gone and your life is more stabil think about: do I want to do this job for the rest of my life?
If the answer is no, you know what to do.
Huge congrats Siand! 700 is huge and enormous and terrific and beautiful. Yes about the past. None of us is going back to that. One we go. Have a good day friend. Sober and clean. Love.
Congratulations Siand!!
days!! You rock!!
Enjoy this special day!!
Thank you, really, thank you! I know I want to be a business owner and help others achieve their goals. So that’s what I am. However, I’ve technically wasted a few degrees. The guys that work for me are very special. My operations manager worked for me for 9 years when I was VP of a payroll company. She’s my everything. She randomly got sick 4 years ago. Long story short, the illness turned her into a quadruple amputee. Slowed her down? No way. This woman is the most incredible ray of sunshine. If she can make it through this with a smile on her damn face, I can make it through anything. I love her and respect her with all that I am.
Morning my lovely jubblies checking in to day 133 bit board but aren’t we all, trying my best to keep active mentally and physically that’s the best I can do tbh.have a blessed day
Day 6 on April 5th 2020,Feb 5th 2020 is the day I decided to stay sober,I’ve had 1 day of drinking alcohol since then,my head is good today and I am soo grateful that I am not hungover and witnessing the circumstances of Now,be present,be true,and allow other people their own presence and their own truth,. the truth will prevail.…this song came to mind, hope the powers that be on TS will just allow it…it’s a cool song.
Day 106
Today was a hard day. Feeling unappreciated and unheard. Not drinking or binging, so reverted to third and final unhealthy coping strategy, sh. Have two welts on the side of my head from hitting it. I sometimes get weird headaches, and wonder if I will give myself a stroke one day.
I hope you feel better
And be gental! !
Anything on you mind besides a headake???
Just feel exhausted and shivery now.
Thanks for asking☺.
Its 5am here
Im warming up to a cup of esspresso
Exosted is good. It means ya kept busy
Its also good for sleep
What did u do to keep busy today?
Pinched from Facebook. Applies to non-pandemic times too. Perpetual productivity is no good for us as individuals, our communities or our planet.
ive mastured the skill of doing nothing
God grant me the serenity
