Three steps forward, two steps back. Total clichĂ© but the truth nonetheless. Another one is that life isnât easier sober, but absolutely itâs better. Or at least we have the possibility to make life better when weâre sober. Yes, life is totally unfair. Still itâs up to me and you to make the best of it. Glad youâre here sharing Steak. One day at a time.

At least youâre back on the wagon. Now you have experienced firsthand that pink clods are fatal. Next time youâll know to be more careful when you are in one or just left one.
By taking responsibility. I donât know if you are in control of your body, but I think you do. So you drank voluntarily. No one forced you, so thatâs not an excuse not to take responsibility.
Welcome to life. Thatâs what life is, itâs ups and downs.
Good luck with getting your consecutive days back, youâve got this

You can. Just got to want to
Ty for your sage advice.
Day 4
Stayed up all night last night with the plan of trying to fix my sleeping patterns. Iâve never been someone who could stay up for several days, even loaded with caffeine, so I took a two hour nap to get me through the rest of today. Needless to say, Iâm exhausted and all I really want is some quality time with my bed.
The only thing that is pulling me out of this and just focusing on making it through until 6pm, is the fact that my catâs behavior has been changing recently in ways that clearly outline possible serious health problems. Iâm in the middle of simultaneously selling a piece of rental property and refinancing my residence (which has been incredibly stressfulâmore than it should have been normally), so at the moment money is a little tight until the property is sold at the end of the month. Iâd planned to take her into the vet at the beginning of of next month, but I donât think Iâm going to be able to wait. To be fair, the cat is 18 years old, so sheâs outlived a lot of house cats, but that doesnât mean Iâm ready to let her go. Sheâs had relatively good health until this year.
My ex lover has offered to pay part of the cost of any medical tests, but Iâm kind of loathe to accept the offer because itâs not their cat and weâre not together anymore so it just doesnât seem right to accept that offer. Besides, that part of me ego that doesnât want to accept help from anyone is saying, âI can put this on credit.â Either way, the cat needs to go to the vet.

Hi @jenajen
We in recovery are very sensitive people. Our sensitivity stands alone with no help from our addictive substance inside us. As time goes by and we get stronger in our sobriety, the sensitivity will begin to fade and we become the real person we are meant to be.
I feel your pain but it will pass. Stay the course. There are many on these pages who have withstood this challenge and now are glorious and free. Soon you would be too.

Still brooding about my relapse the other day, but at least Iâm clear minded. I did some cleaning and crafting this morning.
