Checking in daily to maintain focus #11

Day 5 here. Feeling good about that. Not trying to get too caught up in it though, one day at a time. I’m really trying to find a good balance between working on sobriety and obsessing over it to the point of relapsing again, idk if that makes sense to anyone. :unamused::thinking: For now I am sober, for today I will be sober. Stay healthy and safe folks. :+1::grin:

Day 353! Struggled a little because I went through my playlists and found one I made for listening to while using. It was like I was thrown back to a year ago sitting high alone in my apartment. Horrible feeling. Started craving but went for a drive to my dad’s and talked for a while. Grateful I can open up to my family!

@ForGetMeNot. It’s gotta be tough isolating from the ones you love. I admire your strength through these tough times. You’re a hero out there fighting on the frontlines daily. Thank you for your service!! :heart:

Day 127
Yesterday my daughter played outside for a short time in the late afternoon without a hat. I thought it would be ok, but no, headache and vomiting last night. 100% back to normal this morning, so that is good. Have moved so much closer to equator, but my ‘common sense’ is still East Midlands UK, where playing outside in April would be more worried about needing a coat than a hat.

Haven’t checked in for a few days. I am midway through day 116. It’s been a good few days, but I have been having some cravings. I thrive on routine, and having the gym closed, my work closed, and not being able to spend time with friends has really been wearing on me. Drinking will not make my situation better, so I am not going to do it, but I am struggling with the lack of structure in my life right now.

Nothing wrong with taking a “me” day James. Do what you need to take care of yourself. You’re worth it. :blush: Hugs. :hugs:

Day 47 almost done. Also got invite to a Zoom meeting in the early a.m. Haven’t had the option to attend any of the AA meeting in my area since I joined the Forum so I’m really looking forward to it. There is a small group only 1 block away from me that meets every Wednesday and Friday. Hopefully this could be the start to something good.

7M 2D / My girl just told me something that made me feel really proud of myself. Sometimes I feel like I’m radiating positivity from my body. I notice how it effects people and today it just blew my mind. It’s only been 7 fucking months. That’s fucking unbelievable…
