Day 5 feeling really low and frightened but not sure what I’m frightened about I’m greatful I have no cravings I’m determined to stay clean i just wish I’d stop feeling so empty and alone in my struggles. I could sit for hours on my sofa doing nothing but I no it’s no good for me but as i sit by myself I feel safe in my own world. Happy Friday to you all x

Meditations are still going good last night was the first time I’ve skipped one. But yeah for sure it’s time to start switching up the social media thing.

Yeah I’m still going down and lift everyday on my lunch break. Still jogging, but like the bike/hikes are like what set my foundation at first with sober, so now that I’m not doing them as much I’m feeling guilty. I’m prob gonna get one in tomorrow even if it does rain just to get my head off it lol.

I’m afraid it’s passed that already. I should have left this job a couple of years ago. But fear of change, inertia, procrastination, and indeed not taking responsibility for my actions made me hang around. I love the people I work for but I need change. My heart isn’t in it enough no more. My mistakes stem from that I think. In a way it almost seems I made these mistakes on purpose unconsciously, to force my own hand, or to have this decision to move forced upon me. It’s not pretty. I need some serious work in that respect. And yes Jan, the only one that can do something about that is me myself. @MrsOdh Thanks Sophia

I hear you Natalie, but have no words of wisdom. I DO sit for hours on my sofa doing nothing. Still.
As long as I’m sober, I’m not going to beat myself up over it, and it’s something my new therapist is going to work on with me.
Take care, and do whatever it takes to stay sober.

264 today. Sometimes it feels like a lifetime and that’s ok. I started school again and feel overwhelmed sometimes but I keep telling myself that with alcohol it would be worse.

Brave thing to speak out.
That for starters,
Are you ok now? And what do you think you need or what can help you @ this point now?
Shout out or pm if needed. I know all to well how that shit Works and playes your mind the days after.
Go for it ! Nothing great comes easy… no shame, just reflect and learn from the experiences you had and have now so in anyway there is a up side also if it delivers new insights

What a wonderful inspiring share
It really hits home for me.
Someone on here said “romanticizing” one time to me when I was picturing the bottle of wine I was going to pick out for my 60 birthday on my 20th day sober. I didn’t. But I still romanticize about a nice bottle of wine. Thank God I keep thinking of the reality that it always always leads to the next bottle of wine. And a night cap. It never stops at just one. never
Then trying to drive home. Then the hangover. Then repeat.
I am so thankful I finally got tired of my shit too.
