8 Months. I wish I was more excited but I’m not feeling it mentally. It’s probably just due to all the stress in my life. I’m so over working from home and can’t wait for life to get back to normal. I seem to work harder from home than I do in the office. I miss socializing with coworkers to break up the day. They’re saying maybe July we’ll go back which seems so far away. Atleast I’m clean and sober. If I was still using, this lockdown woud have turned me into a lazy, lying, useless person.

Even if u don’t feel it, super congrats! Working from home IS harder, for me too at least, and the lack of camaraderie is isolating. Nearly at the end of May, so July will be here before u know it.

765, haven’t checked in for a while, as I’ve been really busy. But I definitely feel like I should find some connection whenever possible.
I’m really happy I got past some romanticizing thoughts of alcohol I was having lately. Someone close to me decided to end their sobriety and I couldn’t help but wonder what it would be like to drink with them “normally”. But that’s not me, maybe that’s him, maybe he can do it, but I can’t.
I think recognizing that those draws towards alcohol will happen now and then is key to staying strong during that pull. I knew it was just a phase… And it was and I’m on the other side again, sober. I’m really enjoying sobriety this second year (3rd year?)… Whatever it’s defined or undefined as, I’m finally starting to see that I just need to continue on this journey and truly let go of anything that holds me back.

Hi Laura, the NA/AA-meetings are really helpful to me. I would recommend you visit some (online, here in the Netherlands the physical meeting are slowly reopening as well), try to find a sponsor and work the program. Check in here daily. Move your body to get out of your head. Also journaling helps me to get clarity in my head. Meditate/pray and turn things over to your Higher Power. It ain’t gonna be easy but you can do it!

Checking in day 34.
I’m doing alright, still sober. I’ve been having some issues with the guy I’ve been dating for the past few days. I’m doubting literally anything and everything, don’t know if it’s just the chemical process going on in my head or if we just don’t match all that well after all. I just want to focus on my process right now. A relapse is the last thing I need at this or any given point.
Hope today will be better!
Have a good 24h, everyone!

Day 107. Quit chewing last night around 6 and made it untill this morning and bought a can, trying hold onto it so that if I feel really desperate I can have a quick chew. Also worried it might just be a easy way for me to make a excuse and through a dip in everytime I feel stressed. W.e baby steps, I’m starting to play the tape with chewing as well, I have to realize I’m gonna feel like shit for a lil bit. But if I can quit drinking I can quit chewing. Have a good day everyone

so so mate I’m going for another covid test today bc my last one was negative but I’ve been ill ever since. My doctor won’t give me any anti biotics bc they don’t cure covid so if my new result is also negative they hopefully will help me get better. Thank god I don’t drink and smoke or this would all be too much.
on the plus side I’ve not got a huge hole in my stomach 
. get well soon bud.
