Exam finnished, a week before due date. Know my weekend begins
Day 104 clean and sober today. I graduated the treatment program Iām in and Iām moving into my new place today!!! Thank you everyone for being such an amazing support group, love you guys have a awesome day!!!
I hope you get good news today. Iāll be thinking of you.
Day 17 here. Itās Thursday and I have to go to the periodontist. Final check up for a gum graft I had in June. I was drinking like a fish but somehow it still healed up the way it was supposed to. Iām grateful for that. After that just heading to work, but at least we get coffee brought in today! itās looking chilly outside today. I guess summer is officially over! Change of season to accompany changes in myself. Fall is my favorite! Everyone have a blessed and sober day!
@Lilemm, I quit smoking and drinking 9 days ago. I was smoking a pack a day and drank on average a half box of wine a day. Smoking is tough to quit. I went away to CO to get away from my house, and that has helped. Just have to be determined not to start up again when I get back home on Sunday. Thinking of you and you got this!
So Iām on day 54 of no substances and no booze. Drug test tomorrow so no way am I fucking up this counter!!!
Relapsed on my SA, I had 6 years recovery I let it bite me in my ass! So day 4 still got my hoodie pulled over my head and avoiding any interaction with people.
Iām angry with myself but in so many other ways happy that I havenāt just ran back to my old coping ways, being numb, going in myself will not break these addictions.
So taking accountability and the shame is raw but least Iām not telling myself its okay while I shove something down me to fake it!
No pain inflicted on myself, just kind words and encouraging myself to carry on!
I canāt hate myself anymore I donāt see self harm nor suicide as the key to unlocking my flaws! Fuck me I deserve a life even when I fuck up
Love yourself
Thankyou @M-be-free49 for thinking of me. Iām day 42 today. ! Life has been so busy lately and Iāve had a few days off social media. Iām trying to build my business and do recovery as well as look after my daughter and dog ! I often wonder how I even had spare time to do drugs !!! Iām so grateful to have some time to myself today im having a day in bed watching crappy tv and eating chocolate! I canāt remember the last time I had a day doing nothing. Sending lots of love to my ts family x
Hi @Serenity33 I totally am into them too. Theyāre so spot on itās really crazy. Have a great day!
Oh good for you - a day all to Nat! It sounds amazing and well deserved. Enjoy! Iāll stay outta your way
Whatās H. A. L. T. mean?
Hungry
Angry
Lonely
Tired
Four things that can cause cravings, especially when combined. Whenever we are craving, itās good to analyse why. Often one or more of these is involved. Knowing that, we can act to take action to counter them while not acting on our craves of course!
Oh ok thank you. Iāll keep my eyes out for those in myself.
Congrats on the graduation!
Hoping that youāll get good news from the oncologist.
Yeah they really areā¦ just before I decided to get into recovery for the last time please god I was seeing angel numbers everywhereā¦ I donāt think it was coincidence I feel like the angels wer guiding me to make the right desicionā¦ I tried at the start of the year and after a short while I convinced myself that I was ok and that I could drink occasionallyā¦ what a big lie that turned out to beā¦ fingers crossed now this time I understand that me + alcohol does not workā¦ I am determined and I know what is good for me this timeā¦ good job on your 104 days thatās amazingā¦ and good luck in your new homeā¦
I know this feeling all to well. Iām so sorry youāre there. Glad you made appointments to get help and recognize it for what it is. Hoping the dark cloud passes sooner than later for you.
Day 379
This week has been a mental battle for me. Cravings. Thoughts. Anxiety. All coming at me every day. Iāve been pouring out myself to others and have not taken time to get myself filled back up. I donāt even know what that would look like to be honest. If I had a whole day to do whatever I wanted I donāt even know what Iād do. But I feel like I need a break. So maybe Iāll figure out how to do that this weekend. Thankful to be sober and for this forum. Stay strong people.
