Day 1. Tough night waking up covered with sweat and by having lots of nightmares but at least waking up sober. Yesterday was a day with some strong cravings but…I did not have a drink.
Really thinking of joining online meeting. I am just too anxious and shy at the moment.
I thought I am not going to learn anything new on TS but I actually do ever day. You guys give me some strength.
It will be better day today…I hope.
Even if you go on Zoom, you can mute and keep your video off. You can also call in to most meetings and some are call in only. You can be an observer. No one is going to call you out or put you on the spot. Even just listening is very helpful to me.
Congrats on the biggest day, Day One! For without it, you can’t keep tacking more on. 
Day 28 for me. New to the group. I’ve been going it alone so far. Today wasn’t terrible. It’s Fridays I’m mostly afraid of… One day at a time, I guess.
Welcome to the forum! It’s a great place with great people! Glad you are here!
Day 22 
Today was pretty good. Yesterday was SO hard. I feel like I’m on a bit of a roller coaster right now. But… Still going to bed sober tonight. And I’m proud of myself. Right now, that’s all that matters
Day 164 , didnt check in for at least 3 weeks…
Still going strong though…
Happy day to everyone…
Day 153! Today was also pretty bad, I think I’m in kind of a slump right now. Hopefully have some good stuff coming tomorrow so that should be better
ok-ish 
stuggling with insomnia due to the pain. get only like 5 to 6 hours in a week at the moment. So only job then is to not take my emotions and thoughts serious and not cave in… today is going to be hard I feel. Over last 2 weeks could keep myself busy with working in the house but now I am just to angry by exhaustion. Have 4 earplugs in and over that a Snow headband with cotton balls and noise canceling headphones and still manage to hear birds and want to shoot them… this is no joke and give an example of how on edge my nervous system apparently is. hahahah
9 months sober today. I’m so grateful. I am working on my issues, my life for the first time in a long time has palpable shape and a sense of direction, albeit humble and still in early growing stages. And the biggest deal for me: I am gaining a kind of self-love and self-acceptance. And a trust that life is possible. I wish everyone on this journey as many blessings as I have so wonderfully been given. XF
Angry beards… i’d say wack them tweeting mofo’s 
I can relate to where you comming from but hang in there siz, go go gadget scarecrow-mode then and try to be Nice to yourself, get something you really enjoy for just you and s.o. if needed.
My day started good, i might be going home this week if home-care can place me… so thats a big win. 
Hope you guys ate allready…
Have a Nice one ya’ll

I know and I’m on the same page as you. If it opens doors to some good therapy programs I’m fine with the diagnosis. Indeed it’s just a label. Thinking about it myself I might be actually leaning more towards something like Asperger… This institute is supposed to be excellent at diagnosing. So I’m hopeful together we’ll come up with some useful stuff for me to help me grow a bit. In the past I rejected it so strongly because it was such a big stigma in my head. The tantrum throwing self harming self destructive hate you one day idolise you the next one failure of a human being BPD stereotype. That wasn’t me! Let’s drink and smoke and snort and swallow some more and forget about it for another couple of years…
oh yeah!!! Hope your well mate.
Day 3 check in.Struggling with guilt and shame this morning. the day gets better.
That awesome! So proud of you!! Congrats 
Beautiful numbers, excellent work Mike! Huge congrats. I love to follow your journey. You’re doing fantastic friend.
