Great how you put this!!! this is kinda the only thing I miss in my sobriety… also in this way a great way to see for mee it is not the alcohol or any other crutch we use. Thank you for sharing this. Have a sober day!
Hey, good to see you back!
I think it’s important for us all to remember that we don’t have to have anything profound to say. (Note to self!)
It’s just about being here and staying connected. That means we feel more able to reach out when things feel harder and able to be a positive face and story for when the going is smooth.
This is such a good way of describing it. I am taking this for my CBT notes!
As promised, a few night pics
It’s hard to tell, but the building on the left has lights on in the shape of a heart
Have a great day everyone!!
Gorgeous
Good morning. Checking in day 94. Went to bed early to catch up on sleep Lol
Slept good but woke up early too Done my praying and readings. Having coffee and banana.
I must admit when I posted the screen shot today my addict was screaming and crying screw this I quit another half pic Lol Small things tried to snap the pic on 00 03 03 00 03 03 missed it by a second Lmao more addict thinking again of course you missed by a second as i actually took the pic a second to soon. Irrelevant stuff in a vain attempt at perfectionism. Today I am grateful to sober and happy. Have a blessed day. & TS &
255 days nice. Best of luck with the interview. You got this showing up they say is half the battle, in today’s climate maybe more!!!

Morning, all. Checking in, Day 105 (today makes 15 weeks!) Started off the day with an early ride. Plan to do an AA meeting at noon on Zoom, then work more on Step 4. Have a strong, sober day!
Just entered my 5th month, day 153. It seems like yesterday when I stopped and today I feel I have forever to go. I’ll always be an alcoholic, I just won’t drink ever again. I don’t miss it at all.
You so have to!! And I shall head your way one day for a hike!!!

Beth, the night photos are stunning. What a beautiful view!!
Day 92.32
Feeling much more myself this morning. I rolled up that funk and threw it in the trash!!!
Had a great bike ride last night. Couldn’t sleep, but found a renewed sense of hope for the future (somewhere; I will take it). I feel good change coming and am rolling with the feeling. I think the nightly SMART meetings are helping. Busy day now that the work week is in full swing.
Wishing everyone luck and a strong & sober day!!!
Good for you! That looks fun and amazing!
Day 8 checking in. Mental health is a lot better today. Being sober feels darn good.
Hey man, thanks for checking in. I’m doing good back to myself,day 78 and at work today. I haven’t seen my friends in like a lil over two weeks and I hung out with them on this day so I’m thinking it may have been why I was triggered. I had no motivation yesterday but I sucked it up, did 5 miles on the treadmill, lifted and then did a 12 mile bike ride to get my head clear. Thank you again, I’m glad I can conciously think and get myself to where I need to be, I just hope I can always get myself to a safe place when shit like that happens bc I know it’s not gonna be the last time it happens
Day 535 and checking in, started walking yesterday to relive the stress of all this lockdown …so far so good (12000 steps )…looking forwards to hitting my 18 months in 12 days ( what a journey its been )…hope all of you are all good and remember guys one day at a time
@Girlinterrupted I lived in NY too! In the Bronx but in a first floor.
Enjoy now your beautiful apartment!
Day 3 sober here. And working in home
I have those same feelings often and sometimes they are justified, sometimes not. But, like you (and many of us!), wanting to please and ‘be liked’ is at the heart of it. Which I am pretty sure leads to learning to love and accept my self more …all of my self…including the less than loveable parts…which extends out to compassion for all…not just the self. As always, a work in progress. Be gentle with yourself.
