Day 30 is here! Been here before, kinda the point where I usually stop being committed to not drinking. Feels different this time. Mindset has changed from thinking I can manage and maintain control (which is a big fat lie) to- sobriety is a lifestyle I embrace. ā€œNo thank you, I donā€™t drink.ā€

Hmm my drinking pattern god worse and worseā€¦ if I didnā€™t quit then I would be in a much deeper place.
And I moved out of my parents house where I had all those drinking memories.
My gf and I moved in together and I made a fresh start. And this community helped a lot too!

What is your story?

True, only if we are making the mistake. But, to learn from others is another powerful tool used within all walks of life. Another powerful moment is when we teach others. Then the knowledge becomes part of us.

Day 29, reconciling with my smoking cigarette habit. I truly wanted to discard both drinking and smoking to make a clean slate on better self care. That ended in disaster. But, I am still taking those baby stepsā€¦ I guess I still need my pacifier. Some day, though, I wonā€™t need that even. Being kind to myself.
