Lol thank you @Clarity and @anon60334405 for the support. Yeah I was a little shocked to get the message from admin about my meme being flagged but it does make sense as it was funny but could have triggered some people and I would never want to do that to anyone here. Have a great day today!!!
Day 4 of my return. Didn’t sleep great last night, but didn’t have to take any sleep aids either. So should be feeling clearer today!
Have a great day!
Happy 140 days lil sis you’re KICKING ASS!!! and Happy anniversary @Lisa07 that’s so awesome!!!
Happy One Year Sober!!!
Sleep is always good, when you just don’t know what to do, Do nothing it’s better than the alternative.
@Hidden Great big congratulations on your one year of sobriety Chris. That is Amazing. I hope you are very proud of yourself. Great work
Super job @Penguin on your 90 days. Getting that first 90 under your belt is the best feeling. You got this lady.
Those are some great numbers there @anon12657779 so cool
And Happy Anniversary @Lisa07. I hope you have a great day without any shit looming.
And everyone else out there great job fighting the good fight. It really is worth it.
Keeps me going having a daily mantra, people like us need discipline or a steady routine. We soon forget who and what we are if we stop working on ourselves.
I hope your doctor’s appointment goes well. Total honesty I find is the best way, having been economical with the truth in the past myself, and make sure he/she understands where you are coming from and what you want. I am over 5 months sober and still have frequent strange dreams. I dreamed I used brown last night. I have never done heroin in my life!
Thank you so much for that reminder @anon12657779. You’re right, it’s only for that moment and it’s how I react. I can let it ruin my entire day or I can choose to move on and make the rest of my day better.
I didnt see it. However, while I probably would have found it funny, that shows an abundance of empathy for others on here…something that sometimes is lacking on here. That is something to be respected.
Checking in sober, Day 315 (45 Weeks!!). Happy Tuesday!
Congrats, @Penguin on 90 Days!!
Kudos to you too, @Soll, on 3 Months Way to go!!
And Chris - super Congrats on Year Big accomplishment, one with a lot of hard work and trying challenges behind it through which you persevered!!! And in 2020 of all times to accomplish this
Thank you for your reply! Our stories seem to be similar, I’m looking foward to my sober 30s (after my 20s were pretty much a drunken blur ). I plan on looking for therapy once I moved, but for now, depression is much more managable sober and I’m grateful for that. I’m glad you’re doing well, also be proud of yourself
Thank you @Figgie for your reply, it means a lot to me!. My younger self would think I’m getting old and boring, I like your perspective much better! Always enjoy reading your posts!
Also thank you @Nordique and @Dazercat
@Dolse71 haha thanks, that made me smile. Going to have a happy feet - danceparty in my kitchen later!
We weren’t down very deep at all, maybe 15 metres or so. The group (as I recall) had about 8 people.
The big “pointy” ones are sharks, yes.
The more “rounded” and grumpy looking ones are (I think) groupers.
Actually, hurling while underwater isn’t really a problem, so long as you hold onto your regulator.
I’ve had coughing fits underwater, and it’s the same thing. Blasting stuff OUTWARD isn’t a problem, it’s just that you have to make sure that the regulator is still in your mouth when you suck back in… otherwise, there will be a problem.
I’ve put up some other diving videos, too, and yes, I’m VERY much looking forward to my next dive. I’m hoping to go to the Red Sea in January, but it depends if I can get a flight (EasyJet has cancelled everything).
Day 71: Happy to see some big accomplishments here today! Quick check in and off to try and be useful, still shaking off a bad night/morning of pain and bad dreams and it’s almost noon. Working on the kindness toward self today. Hang in there, gang!
Absolutely love your perspective and analogy. It is so amazing how both expectations (hopefully lack thereof) and reactions can make or break a day.
was thinking about you today as I was eating steamed brocoli! (that was your dish right?) glad to see you back here, awake and already counting up the numbers again!
You hang in there too! Sorry you had a rough night/morning
