This is a great idea. I wish I had it back when I quit smoking!

I did purchase an absolutely gigantic package of these, though:

I imagine the Three Post Rule works well for any kind of craving. I will try to remember that next time the alcohol cravings return!

Day 48

The day flew by and home by 17.30 to cook dinner , going to get back to my affirmations, meditations, podcasts, gym etc as i know from past this is when i can get complacent…

Feeling good today, just washed dishes and now doing some housework but so needed!

Have a sober day all and happy Labor day in the US :pray:

Whats up man? You getting some riding in today?

Haha no sorry for that confusion. It was a pic from last summer… no bike this summer, had to focus on some other stuff first. But definitely next summer I will be on a bike again. You ride quad? Or dirt scooter?

I hear that, was riding alot till my last relapse. Need to back to it, plays a big role in my sobriety. YZ250X.

Damn, beautiful bike bro. 2016?

2017, around 65 hours.

Hi everyone, just a quick message to check in… All is well over here, just the usual work and all the rest. I’m glad NOT to be in quarantine, anyway, that would be a pain in the butt. I’m at 26 days now, so I’ll be at a month of sobriety by the end of the week. I’m looking forward to it !
In any event, tomorrow is going to be a busy day, so I should get to bed.
I hope that you are all having a happy and sober day.
Goodnight, all.

Checking in day 39. Had a really frustrating day at work. Before I would have let it fester and got angry and then got drunk to get rid of the feelings. But… today I just shrugged it off and decided to deal with their nonsense anither time if it comes up again. They aren’t worth my emotional reaction and they really aren’t worth my hard earned sobriety. Another sober day achieved and another morning tomorrow without a hangover and feelings of self loathing.
Hope everyone is doing ok and congratulations to everyone checking in. :muscle:

I read something today about how our feelings are all signals and neurotransmissions in our brain that try to make sense of our environment but sometimes the signals get mixed up. I’m probably not explaining it well but maybe its just a faulty signal? The book is called “Memoirs of an Addicted Brain”. There’s a fair bit of neuroscience in it from a neuroscientist who is an ex addict but its helping me understand why I sometimes feel the way I do.

Just went to another aa meeting. It really does help listening to other alcoholics.

I shared a bit too but still finding my feet again on the sharing part but most importantly I did. If any new people were wondering you don’t have to and listening will help you.

I’m not really a religious person but definitely can recommend them to anyone that is struggling.

Hope I bloody sleep tonight :joy:
