Checking in Daily to maintain focus #13

Thank you, I’m really happy for the things I’ve been fully present at the last weeks. Without being buzzy from drinking. And I defenitly needed to hear this today. I’ll keep working on it and focusing on enjoying the reality. I wish you a wonderful weekend :cherry_blossom:

That’s definitely a part of the problems. Most occasions is strongly associated with alcohol,not because I really did need a special occasion to drink but it was more justified when it was. But yes, being sober should definitely be something to celebrate, and I hope I can keep that up this time. Wishing you an amazing weekend :hibiscus:

23 up and down days of sobriety. Day by day feeling stronger but it comes very slow. Becoming sober alcoholic isn’t easy to achieve but it’s definitely worth it. further i am from my last drinking session less cravings and temptations I have.
Keep on track everyone.

Love this! Why can’t we celebrate without a cancer-causing, only tastes nice if we train ourselves, liquid?

@jjcarson92 Congratulations! Well done you, you deserve it! :grin::tada:

Today was a very eventful day.
I got out of bed at 6AM to study for the tests, which I had at 9AM. I did good on one of the tests and did decont on the other. When I went back home it was raining. I cycle fast and I’m used to a mountainbike, however, I was not on my mountainbike, but on my old bike with little grip. Very close to my home is a turn where the asphalt changes to bricks causing it to be very slippery when it rains. I discovered that when I went too fast in that turn and my bicycle slipt from underneath me causing me to get hurt pretty badly. Nothing broken, and I didn’t land on my head, but I did get some cuts and bruces.
So I had to call in sick for work. These events caused me to be pretty annoyed. Then my sister put something containing OH-molecules on my wound which stung like hell… She really enjoyed that. After a while she told me to put out the trash, which I find disgusting, and in a comedic series of events this caused water to drip into my buttcrack and me getting a cold shower from a tree. Really pissed me off at the time, I kinda wanted to destroy the bin…
For a while after that my sister made sarcastic comments, which I find hard to understand due to my autism. Annoyed me even more, so I took some alone time.
At 5PM my brother visited which was great, because he’s crazy in a fun way. But he is really energetic, so I decided to get some more alone time this afternoon, because i couldn’t handle all the impulses.

My nailbiting is getting better as you can see in the graph, I think TS might be the perfect solution to quit nailbiting.

@jjcarson92 5 months? Noice, keep the good work up :smiley:

No i still haven’t been going out. Partly due to my wife’s compromised immunity and also due to the crowds at the beach. That and it will take a couple weeks to see the impacts from all the protesting but I think we might be close to seeing a second wave as they start to lift restrictions due to public pressure. That and over half of everybody is an asswipe and they don’t wear masks. So going out doesn’t help my stress it actually increases it.

Day 45.

Restaurants are starting to open up here in California, so that’s brining on new challenges.

But, day 45 nonetheless.

I’m loving the climbing numbers from everyone and congratulations to everyone on day 1! The first is the most important one.

Sobriety really is the best gift we could give ourselves on any occasion and for any reason. I’m on day 320 Alcohol free and 11 days on my raw vegan challenge. I’m feeling spiritually grounded today. Can’t explain it but my body feels like it’s supposed feel this good and my mind feels like it’s supposed to be this clear. On a pink cloud and kinda high off life. I love these pink cloud days, they definitely make the rough ones worth experiencing, just for some contrast. I hope everyone’s making it through hysteria. :blossom:
