Day 530. I’m feeling very busy all of a sudden. I want to do more than I have time for. This is a very positive sign because the opposite is what happens when I’m depressed.

Day 23 , had a very frustrating hurtful confused day, I broke up with my girlfriend , having tech issues with computer , had to go to a funeral today. So frustrated I was yelling and cursing to myself loudly.
Usually these things wouldn’t bother me knowing that I have a drink waiting for the past 20 years , but this time the emotions were raw and I had to deal with them by taking a day off work and reminding myself that I’m ok repeatedly,
I’ve gotten over this storm , I was entertaining the thought of drinking the past 2 days . I’m terrified but today I won , I hope tomorrow can be a lil better

Absolutely. I try to rotate in yoga days for either endurance vinyasa flow or just stretch and meditation. I got a balance trainer and that thing is putting the hurt on my legs :leg:. One legged balance squats after weights is what did it lol. Gonna start jumping rope for cardio. Unfortunately Im not able to get out and ride a bike or surf which is what I really want to do. So i walk in circles in the back yard. Also picked up my guitar again.

Jeez. I feel ya. is there a way to get out of them? i’ve been working on a line like I can’t drink because of medication or health reasons or something to that effect. Stay strong and abstain. I guess if you had to have a cup of grape juice but it’s not good for recovery to be in “those kind” of rooms. Reach out if you ever need too. We got this.

Sorry you have to go trough rough times Sucram.
I wish you strenght today at the funeral.
It helps to make a plan on front what you are going to do when home afterwards so you can distract yourself and maybe find some relaxation.
Take care 🙋

Day 580 :coffee:
It seems like Covid will be around in the Netherlands for a long time. A test showed that only 3% of the Dutch people has immunity cells in their blood. I hope there is a vaccin soon.
But the curve is flatten and there are less people dying each day, but still much to many :pensive:
I’m trying to enjoy the little things in life like this sunset for example:


It was during a walk yesterday evening.
I wish everyone a great sober saturday :facepunch:

I know it won’t last forever (at least I hope not!). But at first I thought we will have a “normal” life next summer. But now I don’t. Yesterday I would have left for Spain with my daughter. But my holiday is cancelled and all I have is a voucher I can use within a year. But who says I can go next year?
It’s a minor thing in this crazy world, but that I was thinking of when typing my check in.
