Good job passing on that free drink!
Been there and done thatā¦I feel your pain. A lot of things are harder to navigate now that we donāt have the crutch of alcohol to lean on. Now we feel every feeling. And as for the social mediaā¦ I donāt have any social media for that reason (besides TS, if you count that as social media).
I hope you have a better day tomorrow. Remember every day that we stay sober is a good day no matter what
Tis a fine name indeed, for your stationary steed.
Day 92.
But what is a day without curve balls, stressors, demands, and untouched to do list items? All are simply fodder for the practice of staying sober! Am I right?
Kind of a tough day for a few reasons I was starting to post about, but then realized my thoughts are still half-baked (raw?) or half-composted, and Iām not sure which. Iāll try to put the thoughts to bed and myself too, and hope my mind is bit clearer in the morning. At least Iām no longer trying to sip the worldās problems away, so thatās good. Besides, it turns out it didnāt do much to helpā¦
Seems like itās been a tough day for lots on hereā¦
@Jennajen Stay strong. Eyes on the prize - of waking up tomorrow, trigger in the pastā¦
@RosaCanDo All I can offer is a hug and my hope that it gets better.
@Dragonflygirl82 Like I said to Rosaā¦
@Mno Such a good outlook! Even after one of those days, your glass is still half full. Of tea. Hugs. I hope the sun shines as brightly tomorrow.
@anon89207786 Yay yay yay! I think you are our āyayā of the day! So happy for you.
Gānight all. Big love
Heās a fucking embarrassment.
@M-be-free49 @Nordique
Thanks so much for the thoughtful words. Much appreciated. Iāve been a highly sensitive creature my whole life and working on new coping strategies is hard but worth it.
No social media (other than TS, if that counts) for me either. Nothing against it for those who can make it work. I prefer to put the kettle on and either answer the door or pick up the phone
@RosaCanDo - waterās hot if you want to join us for tea!
This chapter of my life is called āParadigm Shiftā.
Had to Google this, tell us how it works out for you, all the best.
Blessings and sobriety!
Day 50 checking in! Good excuse for pizza. Good night all!
Good morning all.xoxochecking in on day 68 clean AND WAIT FOR ITā¦1WEEK SMOKE FREE BEEN A MIXTUTE OF TOUGHNESS AND CLARITY AND CALMNESS.have a blessed dayā:kissing_heart:
Itās called āJonathanās Sacrificeā but itāll be Dutch
I can completely relate! I keep slipping back into āeverything must get done nowā mode and this time Iām struggling to get out. Feeling super unsettled and anxious.
I hope you get that breather soon and this passes soon for both of us
Congrats!!
You donāt have to be āstrongā all the time. Thatās a tough standard to live up to. Itās okay to take a minute to breathe. Itās okay to have a breakdown. Itās okay to be human.
Checking in on day 3. Stressful workday ahead. But I know I can do it because I wake up with no hangover. Feeling fresh from the gym last night. Getting the day started with some coffee and water. Wishing you all a beautiful sober Wednesday
I will try next time I eat pizza. But yes I can imagine this happens to me. Everything falls onto my lap before I can actually put it in my mouth
Day 31.
Kids are at after school club today, because I thought I needed time to do the exam I sent in yesterday. All my classes this week are canceled because of technical issues. So it looks like Iām having the entire day off.
Hopefully drama free
Wishing yāall an amazing day.
Have a wonderful day , sending positive vibes and energy whatever you decide to do
