day 3 is cool, I’ll pray for you but be vigilante and aware, you’ve been here before so look out for the signs, mind your thoughts and I wish you well.

be grateful for your health and your sober days. TBH that much money would probably kill people like us, it would only be a matter of time before the party began. plus it won’t buy him anymore than 2 toilet rolls right now.

Just wanted to check in and try to keep in contact with everyone here. Last night I messed up once again. I’m so done with this. I dont know why my damn brain is wired the way it is. Its exhausting and it frustrates me. I keep apologizing to my loved ones for my actions… but without change it’s pointless to apologize. I want to be a better person. I deserve a better life and the people around me deserve a better person to be around. I’m so sad and regretful. I just needed to express myself n reach out

You’re doing fine lady; it’s you navigating your own road to sobriety. It took me more than a few tries but being here is the place to be, we help each other along when we fall.:kissing_heart:

So one thing I notice is you check in one day and then stop for several days. I believe its a huge trigger for you. Since the day I have joined this forum, I’m on every single day. It helps me, bc were all sober. I’m pretty sure i would be doin the same thing as you if I didn’t get on everyday. I write my story everyday and check in daily, Im not saying you have to, but i really think you would benefit from. You have to become as obsessed with sobriety as you are with drugs . Otherwise it won’t happen. You have made it past ten days before you can do it again girl. I almost got coke last night, I almost justified it bc I wasn’t going to be drinking, and for me I can stop coke no problem. But it’s filling a void that I need to attend it won’t make anything better, and literally I hate twitching out, I studder and get paranoid off coke. And it last me like maybe 40 minutes its not worth it

Ur absolutely right Mike. I want that… to be obsessed with my recovery. I want to be healthier and not feeling the way I do. Ur very observant tho lol bcuz yes I definitly do that (check in and then not check in for days). I know I can do this recovery thing. By the way, I am so very proud of you Mike for getting through your cravings the other day. It’s really inspiring for me to see that… to see that not giving in can be done :slight_smile:

Oh I really relate to this post Mel. I know there are threads and threads of codependency on here, but it’s really hard to get a bigger understanding of this aspect within myself. I woke up feeling like I needed to just be in managing mode, so this was a breath of fresh air.

Day 76.54

Checking-in today. I skipped yesterday since I had a ton of stuff to do.
Went for a 6 mile walk this morning to only see 3-4 people (2 of which crossed the street when they saw me coming). Even more unnerving are all the people wearing masks in the grocery store. This stuff is starting to freak my shit. I had strong cravings yesterday as a result. Trying to keep things sane in these weird times. Still no paper products or hand sanitizer.

Hopefully all of you are holding up okay.
