Hi Ariel. So good to see you on here! It has been a very rough year so far for me. I lost my Mom in April. It was just devastating. Thank God I am sober and able to grieve in a healthy way. I’ve missed you!
I’ve missed you too! So sorry to hear about your mom, but did glad you are still sober and able to deal with those emotions.
76 days. just truckin along. Spent the morning doing some yard work and spent the afternoon driving around neighborhoods looking at houses and checking noise levels. finally started to put some wheels in motion for my move and it feels good to have a new vision on my outlook of life. Striving for the future I want by living in the moment. Such a beautiful concept.
Checking in on day 13 wonderful to wake up without any hangover
Day 186! Today was good! Went shopping which always makes me feel better
@Girlinterrupted
That is so great! With openness and honesty many amends can be made.
@CapriciousCapricorn
So sorry to hear that. I understand how disappointing it can be, but hopefully we can learn something from a slip that will help us more in the future.
Day 588. Deep breath before a busy Monday.
I’m so sorry to hear this. So hard when one person can affect us so negatively and so confusing why we continue to let it happen. Hope you find the strength to keep moving forward. Taking that power away from someone is as hard as staying sober and unfortunately takes as much, if not more, work. I can relate all too well. Sending some strength your way.
210 Days: Doing a lot of soul searching and trying to figure out exactly who I am and what my “happy” truly is. Definitely glad I’m sober, but I’ve got a lot of work to do.
Strength and success today James. Keep breathing.
Checking in on day 9. Wishing you all a happy sober Monday. Here it’s rainy. Fitting to Monday…
Great to read your post beth !!!
@plodding… keep banking them.
@CapriciousCapricorn , i send you a virtual blanket to get you warm. Dont forget to look into the glass person you feel like nog. Isnt it in glass we can see the vision of our true self.
And yes, it might not always be what you want it to be but i think if you look hard enough jou will see the right things. Beïng voulnarabel or fragile does not in and wat mean that your weak.
You spoke out and allready have a few answers. Proud at the guts you have sharing.
For me just another day in paradise…i really am getting homesick and bored at this point but on the other side really nervous by the thaught going back home… ( my refridgerator seems to be my biggest enemy, i recolect me leaving a salade in it and then the dust of 8 weeks beïng away.)
Going to get some support , i think that is the best way not to get overwhelmed by what i rencontre.
Be safe all of you
678 days alcohol free. Happy monday
you know I love you like a brother from another mother but I’ve been sober loads of times and if it ever went away I wouldn’t find myself on day one all the time. I was 18 months sober once and still thought I could have one.
Dank je wel!
Day 3 Sober check in.Feelng better this morning I hope everyone has a good Sober day!!
If you have cravings, think about the quite possibly horrible future you will experience if you don’t stop drinking and think of the joys that sobriety will bring you.
Day 133.switched up to vipassana meditation I think I’m gonna stick with this. Was able to get a 6 mile jog in Saturday which is my best run so far. Then went and did some stuff with my girls, I bought a tow behind stroller for my bike so they can come with me on some rides. My buddy called me Saturday and for what? You geussed it, to help weed whack… Like my mind doesn’t know how to handle it, deep down I want to tell him no fuck off… But when I spoke it came out yeah man I can probably help. Whelp happy Monday
