Checking in daily to maintain focus #17

Think that could be a good idea, will look into it and see if there are any near me. Thanks :blush:

Day 15 each day gets a bit better… it’s still early days of being single and I’m trying to love myself and heal from a relationship of 5 years it’s painful but I need to let go … I can’t keep going back to someone who doesn’t see any good in me and someone who will always be a using weather it drink drugs or weed … some days I just want to go back but I know deep down that I deserve to be free and put myself first for once my relationship was another addiction for me … I don’t normally post about my break up but today i need support… I’m so greatful to be in recovery I’m so greatful i have you people who are like family to me … happy Friday to you all x

Day 697. Had a date night with my boyfriend last night. We go once a year to one of the fanciest restaurants in town - their food is outstanding and the atmosphere is wonderful - the night was really great, it was our 6th year going there. We get dressed up really nice and it’s just a special night. We’ve been bike riding a lot too which I love. I started really getting into it because of quarantine and it’s now one of my favorite activities. We bike at least 4 times a week, 10 to 15 miles. The photo is from our bike ride two days ago. Photography is also one of my hobbies and I’ve been neglecting it. I even played the guitar and sang for the first time in weeks. My boyfriend is still not drinking - going on 7 months. We talked about it last night and he said this was the first summer he hasn’t drank since he was 14 (so, 36 years!!). I was worried about when his gigs started again that he was going to drink since he’s a full time musician. Although, he never drank in the house, he would tear it up at his gigs. But since COVID and he was out of work, so he stopped drinking with no issue. He doesn’t have a problem but has definitely been a heavy drinker his whole life. When I quit he really backed off but for the past 7 months, he stopped all together and as of right now doesn’t have the desire to start up again which makes me deliriously happy. Things are just better when you can be on the same page with your partner and it feels great. He’s incredibly supportive with my schooling and everything I want to do and I just feel really lucky to have him. I’m feeling great about myself, getting back into hobbies I let fall by the wayside and I feel like I’m in a really good headspace.

Day 4. Feeling pretty good today, complete opposite to how i was feeling at the start of the week.

Despite the relapse last weekend i’ve had almost 7 weeks sober and i don’t think i’ve ever felt this healthy. Ran 5k yesterday and did it in the fastest time that i have done in about a year. Don’t even know how that happened haha, but it did.

It’s a bank holiday weekend in England and i’ve got lots of activities lined up and it feels good to know i’ll be sober, present and in control.
