Hey lady, stay with us. Keep posting on here as often as you need to. Sometimes I find a hot shower helps me snap out of it.

Damn girl 
that’s amazing how strong you just were. I’m in awe. The whole damn world is bat shit crazy and we’ve never been through anything remotely like this. These times are going to really be a test on people’s sobriety. Definitely check in again. I believe in you, we all do

So cool Mike!!! That is precious. You both will remember this for a long time.
Adorable Mike. You are crafty despite what you said in your post a few days ago. 
Day 523. Knocked off some stuff I had been putting off, then gave myself a bit of a break. I wish I didn’t feel guilty taking the break, but I think overall it was a decent plan for the day.

My timer reset somehow? Then I realized it had a 1 on the Months!!! Saw a few people with bikes on here. My son rides BMX. We ordered a bike online for me to cruise around with him today. Should be here in a few days. He’s more excited than I am to get it!!! I’ll post some pics after we build it.

Having a sweet tooth at the beginning of sobriaty is normal @Clarity. Chocolat is still my plan B when I have cravings even after 18 months sober. But the wordt period was my first 3 months or so. After that it balanced out and I lost all my extra pounds on the way 
Still drinking my coffee though

Marie, I’m sorry you have to deal with this. Alcohol is stupid, addiction is stupid and we all know how hard it it to turn your back to it.
This is all you need to start, A tiny light in the dark. It can grow day by day. Almost 90 days and they are not gone! You learned a lot in those 3 months and so you can use that to do it again! I was sober for 5 years. Before I got that far I relapsed 3 times. Every time around the 3 months mark just like you. It learned me I needed to get pass that 90 days and needed all help I coult get. Then it kind of clicked in and I was sober for 5 years.
And to tell you my whole story:
When I was sober for 5 years and 3 months it was my birthday. I concidered after that long sober I could try moderate drinking.
Well I could not.
Another learning experience.
So I quit again.
Relapsed after 3 months, and got right back to it.
And now back on track.
What I would like to say is: yes you can do it again. Maybe you relapse again, who knows. But keep trying, it will click in eventually. You will learn something from your relapse. I’m not saying that a relapse is part of recovery. Some people just went dry and never relapse. But when you do, try to learn something from it and make yourself stronger by it to avoid a new one.
If I can, so do you Marie. I believe in you

Have a Nice one everybody, @Conor689908 , how you’re holding up over there with no competitions anywhere ?
Somewhere for me its also de-stressing or so becouse with e erything shutted down or closed you just have to take it easy and down a notch.
At first the boredom kind a triggerd me but now that i just submitted myself in what i still can do instead of what i cant it is starting to settle and it works i guess.
How is the situation there now?
Be good everyone and stay healthy

You made me smile, thank you for that Joost!
I lived in Katwijk for half a year a long time ago, did I ever mentioned that? I was a trainee and lived and worked in “Overduin”.
That little town is still special to me
