Wow, sounds super busy. Nice to see you back and congratulations on the wedding!
72 days here my sober buddies…I have to admit tho the demon drink is whispering in my ear and I dont know why sometimes I listen, I then ask my wife if she wants to drink and if she said yes I’d feel inhad the go ahead to. I will stop doing that tho eventhough her answer was no and we talked it out she knows why I ask and we get there and I dont drink and I feel better that I didnt.
I dreamed that i drank and i was gutted when I woke up I thought i had and was expecting a hangover the related when i didnt have one was immense. I call my demon Bathsheba after the demon witch in the film the conjuring and she is perfect for me cos she is evil and disgusting and takes lives abs that’s what drink is to me. So I’m telling her to piss off back to hell and I’m winning. 72 days and I would like the rest of my life numbers on top of that. Peace out friends

Day 172. I haven’t been here in a while but wanted to check in because I am seriously worried about what’s going to happen in this election. Haven’t slept much tonight. Up again now. Probably won’t make it back to sleep but can’t keep reading the election results. I’m not going to drink tomorrow but these are trying times.

I live in the UK and and have no idea about politics in the USA but I get the impression a lot of you are worried about the election but can you explain to me why bc you’ve survived a term with Trump so how much worse can it actually get. That’s not a statement that’s a question.

Day 11. I’m feeling great other than the fact I may have broken my toe this morning. 
No matter what I will stay sober today. I’m feeling too good to stop now. The last couple resets were only after a couple of days of relapse so the physical withdrawal was nothing at all. I feel like mentally I am finally there. I got my new little job and my first payday was yesterday. Normally I’m just dying to figure out how many pills I can get while still leaving just enough for groceries and then I would have nothing left. Not this time, It just seems really dumb to take money I’ve earned and put it in someone else’s pocket so I can slowly kill myself. I am done, I am starting to see so many changes with the more sober days I get. Mentally, physically and emotionally I’m feeling great and I don’t want to ruin it. Have a wonderful sober Wednesday TS folks!!!

I don’t want to speak on behalf of others, I don’t live in the US, but I lived in Hungary (I know there is a difference) and left the country mainly because of political reasons. Believe me, it can always get worse. If a political regime is toxic, it can poison your everyday life and there is a difference between living in it for 4 or for 8 years.

@Misokatsu thank you very much for sharing your story, I cannot imagine how hard it could be living this through as a child. You are very wise to be able to see things now as you do. I hope one day I will be able to come to terms with it as well. Your story helped me to see it from a different perspective.
@M-be-free49 thank you for this quote and your kind words! Metaphors like this really help to understand situations, mine and others’ as well.

Day 275. Thank you everyone for all the amazing support and kind words. They seriously help keep me driving. I am so super proud of all of you as well and wouldn’t my journey to be with any other amazing ppl.
Today was a ok lift session, we did more reps yesterday on bench, and today was Rowe’s. Welly shoulders and neck muscles are obviously really sore, so during my Rowe’s I felt my neck cramp up. It kind of hurts,going to find a softball and massage out my shoulder blades. Hope it helps have a awesome day everyone

Day 58: Approaching two months is kind of mind boggling. I’m grateful that sobriety is giving me some clarity to manage the tumult we are in politically and socially, and that I’m really turned off by drinking right now. Hubby was clearly shaken by watching the results coming in with me last night and said something to the effect that he had to drink to tolerate it. So glad I didn’t feel that way. Mother Nature has shined on us and we are expecting unseasonably warm and sunny days through the weekend, and it feels like a blessing. I plan to take a long walk by myself today to find a meditative space.
