Thomas, all of my relapses happen when I am happy. I think to myself one or two will kick my happiness up to 15 from 10. However it always results in disappointment, relapse, blackouts, etc. I now know I have to be most on alert when I am having a really good day.

Whatās up Conor? Get it out. You restart if you had a lapse. You always have one more in the tank!!! Not reaching out was my mistake.

I love this!!! And I also like hearing your opinion. I am glad you are discovering more about yourself even if it is through something somewhat negative. Keep going strong and finding your voice!!!

Shoot, you were doing so well.
I had the same reset 2 weeks ago.
It sucks but all you can do is dust yourself off, learn from it, and get right back at it.
After my recent weekend bender I felt horrible for about a week. Didnāt know if I wanted try again, etc. I am so glad I did b/c I feel so much better sober. I love being sober.
Good luck, I am pulling for you!!!

Yesterday was a challenge. Opened the cabinet and saw a bottle of captain (left from company). Haunted me until I asked my wife to dump it. Iām good, just havenāt had a craving like that in a few weeks.

It sounds like your meeting at the camp didnāt go as well as you planned. Sorry to hear this. Placing expectations on others is always a big let down in the end for me. Iāve learned to expect nothing to avoid disappointments. Itās hard to do, especially when it comes to people in recovery. I think we tend to put those with long sobriety to a higher standard. Good for you, getting through another day sober!!

Day 313. If youāre guessing I worked out today, youād be correct. Got that knocked out, got the lawn taken care of, laundry going, and finished this:
The protests and riots have had me a little on edge the past two days. We live pretty close to where everything is going down, and I just keep hoping thereās a resolution to it all, before more people end up dying. I think weāve had two deaths so far, and a third shooting victim thatās critical but stable for now.
Have a strong day!!!

Day 118. Got a nice jog in, been chillen on the bike rides and trying to take it a lil easier. I have really bad tennis elbow right now and have just been exhausted. So today I got my jog in and read the doctors opinion in my a.a book, it sucks because at 4 months sober I still canāt comprehend what Iām readingā¦even if I read it out loud,I hear every little thing, cars going by and birds chirping so I canāt focus. So I tried noise cancelled headphones and I still canāt focus on what Iām reading. Itās been a big problem since I was a kid, my a.d.d really makes it hard. I started bills story as well. Hopefully when I start working the steps Iāll be able to do it

Keep pushing Connor. Like me man. We have to remember we will have bad days. But we canāt forget the bad days we had in are addiction, even the good days in addiction canāt compare to the bad days sober man. Keep fighting friend
