Yes, drinking makes life so much more difficult!! I just think back to our relationship and the only times I could really stand to be around him were when I was drinking or doing drugs and now that I am sober… I am realizing this isnt healthy for me. Thank you for your response.

Just wanted to check in throughout my day. Finished work early so im heading home. Have been thinking about my recovery and what else I can do to help gain some clean time. I have a bunch of crystals/rocks and home that I thought about using with my recovery. Not sure if anyone is into this but does anyone know what crystal is useful for addictions?

Day 389. Grocery run done, dishes done, pup got a bath…and spent two hours on the phone with Verizon for a very simple issue. I ended up learning the hold music on guitar, so not a total waste?
Back ordered official Black Sabbath BLM shirt finally arrived!
Have a strong day!!!

You’re not mean. You’re human. You asked him to do one thing. Which he refused to do. Your relationship has been strained for some time now right? You don’t need therapy you need a way out of this relationship. Well don’t take my word for it because of course I don’t really know you but the way you have been describing your relationship makes me think you do. If he brings out all the worst in you he might not be the right guy to be with right. And indeed drinking wouldn’t help. It would just be a very temporary flight into oblivion. You can do this Pdebs.

I have no idea about the crystals but I just ordered a bunch off amazon hoping they will do something… 
And some sage. I know sage gets rid of the negative energy so I am about to sage my whole house.

Day 90 today!!! => (90 days until 6 months)
Good evening all! Today is day 90 since my last relapse. I’ve been very busy with personal stuff, but I am actively working my sobriety. I am fully committed and looking forward to celebrating 6 months sober on 11/13/2020.
I don’t check in much, but try to read up periodically. Hopefully everyone is doing well and racking up days!!!
Take care everyone and stay sober!!!
Sober is fantastic!!!

Day 8, and annoyed as hell. There is so much drama with AA women the gossip and pettiness is sssooo fucking annoying. It’s so hard to want to stay sober when your in the middle of it. Like I’m a newcomer so they say but I decided to set boundaries so others won’t feel uncomfortable and instead I get ignored

I need to get out there. My daughter’s been asking bc we go at least once a year but I wasn’t sure with the COVID stuff. I like the sea lion show.

yes!!! I am getting my doctorate in acupuncture and my classmates and I talk a lot about healing crystals. People think it’s wacky but I really do believe in them! There are crystals for clearing negative energy, for opening up the heart space which, for reducing anxiety and calming the mind etc. The addiction comes in with finding the root cause of why you drink. So having crystals that target the emotions that cause you to drink can be helpful

life is meant to give second chances. I’m so grateful for mine. Life can be magical or miserable you get to decide. This weekend I actually lived life like I haven’t in a long time. It’s nice being able to reconnect with the family.
