Day 327. Absolutely treating myself today. Large very veggie with âsausageâ, cheese bread, a brownie, and a cookie from Donatos. Got some Reeseâs cups for later. Watching action flicks all dayâŚwas up until 3:30 this morning creating a new 28 week workout program. Math is dumb, I just want to lift. Hahaha.
Have a strong day!!!

Evening check in⌠So last night I decided on and plotted a long bike ride. Then after a not so great night rest decided to do just a short one. Then on my bike I felt so good again I did the long one after all. Nothing as changeable as man. Or maybe the weather, as I rode through summer warmth, chilly fog and rain today. My dedication to being sober and clean is not open for change though. One day at a time. Have a good one all. Love from Noord-Holland.

Iâm tired of the constant drinking thoughts I wish I could have a day where it wasnât part of my life. itâs either good I didnât drink today or bad I did and why wonât I stop. its endless. Try this try that do this do that all day long.

Just made it to day 60 sober about an hour ago. Felt crappy today, but I dropped my son off at his friend this afternoon and when I got back I watched â28 daysâ which made me feel better. Also had a date with my friends Ben & Jerry (that vegan peanutbutter & cookies is just 
).
Two steps forward, one step back⌠Today was my step back, so Iâm pretty sure tomorrow will be better. 
Duh⌠itâs my 60 days clean & sober anniversary! Mighty proud of myself.

I thought âgood I didnât drink todayâ hundreds of times I guess. I think it is starting to fade little bit. I takes time. And in itself itâs a good positive thought I think. A positive. My life might suck but at least I didnât drink. Something like that. I am an addict. My DOC occupy part of my mind. It does fade though. Slowly. It takes time Paul. One day at a time done lots of times in succession.

Made it to day 12 the more I watch tv shows with alcohol in them, the better I feel about my decision to stop drinking. Even scenes where a character is drunk, I feel sick looking at the portrayal of it because I remember feeling that way and hated it.

I do that too! Some of the old COP shows are the same.

Iâm so sorry youâre struggling and had a relapse with self harm. I know how hard the zero contact thing is. I had to do it with my Stbx when we separated and it was impossible. I would only make it a few days at first. I used to write to him and then delete it just to get it out, and I also wrote letters to him in my journal that I never sent. It helped slightly, but obviously itâs not the same. Sending love and prayers xo

Thank you! Iâm so grateful sheâs even willing. Iâm super lucky. Iâve had long periods of being a really shitty mom, but they did always know they were loved. I guess better late than never. I just wish I could go back in time and save them from the pain of a drunk mom

Day 4 stone cold sober. Did my first checkin with a temp AA sponsor. Listened to the holistic psychologist Dr. Nicola on you tube. Her explanation of the ability to self regulate gave me a few tools to use when my brain wants to hijack my world. Conscious awareness, deep belly breathing, journaling, and noticing body sensations. I cant take anything for granted.
