Hang in there!! Think of the bad and negative things your addiction had brought you.
Sobriety is a blessing that will pay off! In my 100 days I’ve had quite a few bad moments were I almost gave in to my cravings and almost picked up my self destructive routine. But no!! This time (3rd try for me) I will make it no matter how hard it gets.
I faced my reasons for my drinkning patterns and I’m working on fixing them.
Remember that this takes time my friend.
I’m here to support you. We all are!
Have a good sober weekend!
Day 6 check in✌🏻HAPPY FRIDAY
I was thinking of you too BTW Conor. Especially when I passed here on my way to the sports store to get some bike stuff. Looks far away now, but we might visit together here one time, you never know… Hope you’re better today friend.
Great job. You are strong! Proud of you
Thanks for asking! I’m okay. Hangin’ in there. Still sober.
Well done sir, you did it!
You used your toolbox!! That’s recovery!!
Happy for you!!
And a warm welcome for you Claire 🙋
123 days. Feeling like I need to drink today. Not gonna happen
Day 269. Uh, same as it ever is, killing the workouts, eating sensibly, staying positive. PRd my front squat this morning. Went from 135# to 200#, so that’s huge and awesome.
Lamb of God released a NA beer (their singer is sober). Anywho, reading the comments on the story about how “not metal” sobriety is and shit like that really touched a nerve with me. I know it’s just internet trolls, but I have seen and heard firsthand at shows, people saying this kind of shit…and it’s just infuriating. Oh well. Rolling up on nine months soon, and could give a damn about someone else’s views on my sobriety.
Have a strong day!!!
Thanks so much.
Day 47 checking in friends😊
Pour it in the sink like Conor says. Really good therapeutic thing to do. The inner voice will scream and wail and cry. You’ll be better for it. You can do this. Screw the voice. And sorry but why keep beer in your trunk?
So over the past 5 to 6 years ive been trying to get sober and ive relapsed multiple times . The only positive about it is that the first time i i relapsed it last for a long 8 months this past relapse (of about 8 relapses ) has only lasted 1 weeks . I body and mind have given up i hate everything about myself today and need help . Im new to this app and im gonna really try to post daily to see if it helps . Im the guys that hates talking at meeting and sits there with everything bottled up until i blow a fuse . So this format of typing your feelings may work better for me and ill eventually when meetings start again actually be able to use meeting more successfully.so today is day 1 again
Sorry mate you have had it rough. So glad you’re better now, you didn’t give up and you were supported here
Welcome Paul! Sounds like a good plan to me friend. Indeed for me this is a great format and way for sharing about addiction and life. Helped me enormously. Hope to see you here often and hope it can be helpful for you too. Success!
Hi Paul, and welcome! It’s a great place to vent, talk or ask questions. Don’t give up, even though you feel like crap today. You have the strength to do it again and 3 little reminders there everyday!
I agree with the others… I would dump the beer… way to early in sobriety to have it around. Stay strong!
This is a great place with amazing people. Welcome, glad you’re here.
