Congratulations on 41 days. In my early recovery I did meetings after work. It got me not thinking about using long enough to make it another day. Some people don’t like meetings… I can only tell you what worked for me. I also had a network of people I could hang out with that was on the same journey. Just know that drinking today isn’t worth it! You’ve already made huge changes in your life and it only gets better.
Thank you guys
Do you listen to podcasts? If so, have a listen to this. If not, have a listen to this…
Not sure if links work in here.
Day 19 for me today. Had a bit of a wobble yesterday because I had some great news, which had me thirsty for a celebratory glass, or seven. So happy I managed to talk myself down. Now I can revel in my good news and feel great about my sobriety. Even better.
Have a great sober weekend everyone. 60 full hours with no black spots, no feeling lousy, no hangovers, no anxiety and loads of energy for the most important people in our lives.
Where’s the cake?
I’m here, I’m alive and I’m sober.
Day 145
Again, I do have a lot to report but no energy doing it.
There’s a meeting at the child psychiatric hospital in about 2 weeks, and that was the earliest appointment they had. Now they’ve gone from, ofc we’re doing a new evaluation, to: Well just adjust the meds, lower one does, raising another. And yet none of the helps.
Last we heard from Social services was that they don’t have a clue in what to do,but they’ll be back in touch maybe next week.
Meanwhile we’re all here, the chaos is increasing and the light in the tunnel seems to be gone.
It keeps snowing, and I’m just done with all this.
For the first time since I started I skipped class yesterday, I don’t have the energy or focus to be there. It’s obligatory today, so I don’t have a choice but attending. I still can’t bring myself to actually try or bring out any kind of enthusiasm for doing it at all. I just want to sleep until summer, or get drunk and forget about it.
I won’t do it, but the feeling is definitely there.
Not a really uplifting post, but I guess it was a long time any of my posts where.
Anyway Happy Friday everyone.
@M-be-free49 What a lovely post to wake up to!! Thank you
I had hoped my sheer enjoyment of ‘pretty’ number strings would have worn off by now. Nope. Still weird.
28 days sober today my lovely beloved told me she is proud if me this morning and I’m proud too, it wud be easy to slip in this lockdown and I’m staying strong. Peace and love xx
I’m still here & still going strong. Starting day 6! This is a very big deal for me…I never make it past 3 days. I feel really good & I feel confidence that was never there every other time I’ve “quit”
Day 151
Slept in this morning ffs. Woke for alarms etc. but back to sleep I went
Work from home atm so no panicking to get out the door🙂
Loads of coffee to get me started.
Nothing really else going on but still good to check in.
Hope you all have a great day/evening
Today is day 26 for me
Stay strong!!! Friday is a difficult day for a lot of people. Do what you have to do to kick its ass and make it a sober one!
Day 174…
So I’m stressing as I want to buy a new bed and sofa for this place but don’t know how I get rid of my old stuff, so a day of researching is on the cards for the day!
I’ve renewed my work contract as doubt I can really go travelling any time soon…
Sooo feeling a tad blue however I looked at my counter and seen how far off I am from 180 days, what a difference, it feels odd in so many ways that I’m living my life clean!
The message I’d pass on for the day is I know that it seems hard, that you feel worth nothing but you are my dear friends, the day is yours make it count don’t let you addiction define you for another day!
Im proud of the people who have painted the way for us to recover, shown it can be done and also proud of the person who has decided today is the first day on their road to recovery!
Here we all have one common goal sobriety enjoy what it can give you, FREEDOM!

Day 354. Thanks for the love and support everyone, I ended up falling asleep. Honestly I don’t think god would let me drink if I tried.
My boss wasn’t to upset this morning, but I come in and be honest with her and she understands and sees that I am trying. I feel ok this morning, I’m going to get the vaccine in a little bit.
