Tell them you expect a reimbursement, lol.

382 days sober today. Makes me so happy. I am thankful for this, so very thankful to be sober! I remember when I was drinking and those terrible days and weeks following would make me so anxious and scared and sad. Hangovers brought with them a deep sadness that I couldn’t escape. So thankful I don’t have to go through that anymore.

- Coffee. Work. Beautiful day. Not much to say. Happy I got out yesterday. Rather take a long nap right now. Such is life. At least I’m sober and clean. Have a good day all. Love.

Congratulations Kevin!
days! 
- Decisions have been made in my county/school district. So that’s good. I’m on auto pilot. I have so much going on under the surface, my mind is scattered and I’m having trouble being present. I’m giving myself permission (←that word was just autocorrected to persimmon and that makes me smile
lol) to be all over the place. Trying to control it and failing, or worrying about it, won’t do me any good. I guess that’s the silver lining…accepting I’m flustered and overwhelmed. That helps.
Anywho, this below seemed thought-provoking and wanted to share
Also, check out these cute persimmons

Week 5 Sobriety. Been sleeping very heavy last few weeks and feel exhausted when I wake up for 30mins.
A bit of research tells me this can be normal in recovery. I’m eating clean and exercising daily
I have no urge to break sobriety

302 Days. I got everything over to social security and now I wait. The 15 pages turned into 25. They mentioned a second set of forms to fill out and I’m thinking 2 pages not 10. Well, at least it’s done.
My alcoholic husband, who’s still drinking, thinks he’s an AA expert and proceeds to question why I haven’t completed the steps in all this time. It came across like I’m not truly sober without this. He asked why do I bother doing all the meetings if I’m not doing the entire program. I didn’t feel the need to explain myself. I wanted to say “I do so many meetings to avoid your drunk ass.” I’m not going to allow this continous badgering to hinder my success.

It’s your recovery, not his! Most “AA experts” I know, understand the idea of staying in one’s own lane. You do you.

Day 621. Been feeling like it’s hard to keep up with life. I’m lacking the confidence I can do it, the motivation to try, and the attitude to succeed. It’s taking a toll and I’m not really functioning adequately recently. It’s giving me doubts about going back to school. I know I can master the educational material and score well in my courses, but regulating myself and keeping up with regular everyday life things in an independent manner at the same time, that’s more of an open question.
Saw a new psychiatrist today (the eleventh one I’ve seen at this point, I believe 
). He specializes in addictions/dual diagnosis, though, which is a great bonus. He thinks I may be bipolar II, and wants me to start a new medication for it. I’m not sure I agree with the diagnosis. It explains some mysteries quite well, but I don’t think it is entirely an accurate description of what’s going on. But we’ll see, I’ll try his suggestions and we’ll talk again about it, if it’s not helping at that point we’ll take a different route.
I want a break from all this.
