Sorry you are hurting so much, but by all means post away. I don’t get tired of reading your posts. Hang in there and hopefully the hurt subsides soon.

Still here doing my best. Really I feel that I could be doing a whole lot more but this covid lockdown really stopped a lot of things that were enabling me to be of service like going into the treatment center I got sober at and doing A.A panels but at least we have zoom meetings. I hope everyone has a blessed sober day.

Like horseshoes and hand grenades, it’s probably pretty close to 10 months. Hahaha

Checking in on day 11 with an emotional hangover.
I had a pretty good weekend camping and made it through without any booze. I did however open up to my significant other about a lot of things that I have been bottling up inside. Because I had been bottling for so long I sort of realeased all at once, and it wasn’t the prettiest. But, I think honesty and communication are more important than keeping the status quo, and that is new for me. I know that I wouldn’t have been able to start this conversation if I had still been drinking, so I guess that’s a win. I am feeling vulnerable, insecure, and exhausted, but also relieved to get it all off my chest.

Day 53 today… I have been really happy. Like, I don’t want this quarantine to end. I love this slow paced life. I have never felt more in touch with nature. My health and spirituality have improved and strangely, I am LESS lonely and depressed. I am wayyy more connected to the people around me and even my family that lives far away. Im no longer in the rat race of driving all over creation, racing against time, being amongst loads of people but feeling so alone and bad about my life and about myself. So as this quarantine lifts I am going to keep this new me. This new routine. Collecting rocks, finding bunnies, feeding horses carrots, hatching baby eggs, running, biking, reading, playing, baking, sobriety and kombucha making. We are on our fourth gallon of kombucha. Its bomb. I wish this happiness for everyone. I made it myself. :blossom: signing off… Happy sober day!

Today is Day 70…
I see so many people with 100’s of days and some with years!
If I make it to 100 days sober that would be an amazing accomplishment for me.
Hope everyone has a great start to the week.

Just had a really good Zoom Meeting with my CR group. Haven’t seen them since this virus shit. Didn’t quite realize just how much I had been missing the face to face with the guys. I mean this place is good and I love it here. But its great being able to talk again with the guys I’ve opened up with over the past years.
Hope everyone is ok and feeling as good as I right now.
Much love :v::pray:

I have dreams like this. I wake up in a panic wondering who’s mad at me, do I have my phone and wallet? :woman_facepalming:t3: Then I realize it was just a bad dream & I’m SO relieved to be sober!

I think these bad thoughts/memories are worthy of acknowledgement but best not to dwell and ruin our day. Happy you got past it and went about your day :+1:t3::blush:
