180 days today. Some family matters have made me very anxious an stressed out this moring.
I don’t handle arguments and fights very well. I hate them.
Congratulations on the half year mate.
Thank you!
Day 14 and feeling so positive and happy I’ve had a few clients to do this morning and have the afternoon to myself so I’m going to see my grandsons I love it when me kids and grandsons are all together I’ve struggled so much the past 6 months and really turned a corner this past week. I’m loving my ca meetings and getting so much out of being connected to recovery again. I hope everyone is keeping safe and wishing you all a blessed day x
Day 10.
Back to work.Stay Safe and Sober
- I’m stepping away for a while. I will stay sober
I hope your doing good. Good luck during your absence. Always feel free to come back. I hope to see you around again
Good luck. Use all the tools you have achieved in sobriety. You can do this, no doubt about it
That’s a little concerning, Mike. I always enjoy your post so come back soon.
Happy Monday, everyone! Checking in, Day 181. Hope everyone is doing well - have a safe week!!!
Congratulations Charlie, I came in just to celebrate your day 30 with you-so happy for and proud or you!! Love watching your numbers tick up, keep them coming my friend!
I can associate with this so much. I know exactly what you mean. I don’t know when to great people, I can barely empathise with people, I react “odd”, I don’t know how to name what I feel.
I think you do feel, but struggle naming it. I thought I didn’t feel either and then my therapist punched me and asked me if I felt it.
If you put in the work you can change. I’ve always been an introvert due to my autism, but over the last months that has been changing, becuase I worked on it. I think for you it will be harder than for me, since I am still a kid, but you can change
Day 10 sober. Connecting with others is helping me a lot after the isolation of the past months
You chose sobriety. Take pride in that
Great job!
Sober for 26 days. Going for a walk and count the baby deer.
Day 758* alcohol free
Gyms open! Just got my first lift in after 4 months, the longest I’ve been out of the gym in almost a decade. Longest before this was a month when I hurt my back. I’ve just been running all this time…necessary but booooring. I lost 6-7 pounds during the last 4 months of pandemic. I had the diet in place to minimize muscle loss, but obviously some still happens.
Felt good but unnatural, body needs to reacclimate, definitely need to slowly ease back in to avoid injury. Figure 3-4 weeks working my way back up, just out of caution. Definitely a bit of strength lost.
Even going light, I get the sense that leg day tomorrow is gonna be a bloodbath, and I’ll love every minute of it.
One day, 9 hours and 45 minutes! Feeling better already!
Day 27. I was so close to giving in and drinking on the 4th. Before heading to a neighbors for the festivities, I decided that I would just drink…in moderation. Then I thought I’d just stay home and miss out on the celebration. But what did happen was that I put my big girl panties on and enjoyed the party and fireworks without alcohol. And I am proud of myself!!! Enjoyed the weekend sober and hangover free. Time was appreciated not wasted.
