One of my windows had to be replaced yesterday and I don’t really like having people over in my home who I’m not familiar with, especially with the Corona virus going on. Then I blocked a “friend” who made some sexist joke. A few days before he did the same so I told him (the first time) it wasn’t funny nor helping and I didn’t appreciate it at all. So after he pulled that again yesterday I blocked him and he started harassing me on every social medium I’m on, so I just blocked him everywhere. He started calling and kept calling so I blocked his phone number too, made me feel really uncomfortable but if people start disrespecting me they just need to leave. Then I joined another meeting which was very triggering, so afterwards I regretted joining that one. Made a call and spoke to my best friend and then I was finally able to let go of everything that had happened.
I’m okay now and today is a fresh start! Gonna bake myself a cake today. Gonna enjoy the weather and spend some time with my son. No worries. Life is good.
Checking in sober, Day 109. Woke up at 5:30 am on a Saturday, couldn’t sleep. Struggling with how to deal with justifiable anger.
I keep telling myself it is ‘perceived’ justifiable anger, there is another side, just let it go. But the other person is lying about what happened. Further, they are spreading those lies on Facebook to make me look worse while conveniently leaving out their misdeeds…
I went for a long bike ride yesterday, and felt better for it, and I’ve reached out to friends for advice and support. But still slept poorly, woke up tense, and am at a lost for how to get past this. Gonna hit the 8 am AA meeting on zoom.
Sorry for the venting. Have a strong day, TS friends!
Thanks for sharing. Sorry that happened to you. Some people can just be jerks. Its real sad when that happens. Glad you’re better now. Congratulations on day 9!! That’s great!!! Hope you and your son have a good time today!
Day 12. Yesterday was a little difficult. I definitely craved alcohol and wanted to drink. I reached out to some friends and family and they reminded me that I don’t really want that and that I would regret it. Ended up drinking sparkling water out of a wine glass instead.
Hi I hit 8 months today. Currently writing in my 6th step and struggling a bit. Not so much with the step but with the process, eh, so ya, …with the step… Its fine though. Im not about to give it all up. Im working on it one day at a time. It is insightful and humbling.
Anyways, today we are gonna record some new songs so I have that to look forward to, but unfortunatly that means I will miss out on the zoom meeting You cant have it all, Kjell.
Netjes kerel!
Ik ben ook erg blij dat ik deze app gevonden heb en dankbaar voor de support van iedereen hier.
Ben het met je eens v.w.b. het beeld aspect. De eerste keer moest ik steeds alle schermen af om te zoeken naar degene die aan het woord was. Lekker chaotisch maar alles went (behalve een vent haha)!
Mooie dag!
Hi everyone. Day 8 and doing fine in lockdown as realised my stresses are so much lower - not working much and not juggling all my childrens needs and being a taxi and not having any time and being exhausted!! When lock down is over I hope I will have put in place a new mindset and because I hopefully will wake up sober I wont be as stressed anyway. Thanks for listening and I send everyone my love xxx
Day 98
as of day 101 not to get ahead of myself they will not allow cell phones, laptops at treatment so in case I get busy packing and all that good stuff. Stay strong people I will be back. Sending out &
