Awesome! Congratulations @RosaCanDo!!

75 days today. For the most part, cravings are gone and itās not really a daily struggle. I also understand that this could just be temporary and the cravings could come back full-force one day. But Iām enjoying it at the moment. The greatest struggle continues to be emotions, regrets, and self-forgiveness ⦠honestly overcoming these things has been much more difficult than staying away from alcohol. I heard this statement on a podcast: āyou canāt get healthy in the same environment you got sick.ā This seems to be extraordinarily true for me. To stop needing alcohol, you have to get out of the environments that drive you to drinking. Itās difficult and painful, but absolutely necessary.
Day 


Iām feeling better each day. I was able to work for 2 days, now I have to focus on getting all of my homework turned in by 11:59 tonight. After the physical trauma of having covid I am not tempted to start smoking againā¦at least not at the present. However, I am having a difficult time not resetting my porn timer. I have to chakra balance or pray the rosary or somethingā¦get my mind off of this.
Although, tbh, that has never actually worked in the past.
- Feeling physically better this morning. Was able to get a workout in, which always boosts my mood (Iāve gained so much weight since Covid hit
) . My kids are with their dad for the rest of the week and tonight the hubby and I have a dessert
date. I told him I need something to look forward to as Iām not really a fan of sit-in restaurants anymore. Takeout: yes, the waiting and poor customer service: no. Anywho. Hope everyone is doing and feeling well this sober Thursday
Day 20 complete. I stayed sober!
Iāve got social skills like Sheldon Cooper from Big Bang Theory.

But yeah cheese is nice, if itās dairy free.
Oh man, I agree that the emotions, regrets, and self forgiveness become harder than the drinking itself. Which is why we drank in the first place. But in dealing with these issues with a clear mind, we learn so much about ourselves.
Itās really incredible isnāt it? Its like we make leaps and bounds in our lives by choosing sobriety. You couldnāt have said it better about the environment being so important too. Great work on your 75 days!

OMFG! The number AND the $ savings. WOW.
Congratulations (and a special thank you for making me smile)! 


Great numbers! You should play lottery tonight!

So Happy for ya Rosa. Youāve worked so hard to get here. It keeps getting better.


Hiā¦Iām joining in againā¦done 24 hours and 3 online meetings.i think the meetings are gonna be really helpful.have been today!..detoxing. not fun⦠usual sweatsā¦not too anxious. Have a friend making sure Iām okay everyday which has been pivotal. Isolation is pretty pretty crap.
Feeling better today, 123 days down.
hello stranger, Iām not going to say good to see you bc I would rather you were out there living a sober life but if your not this is as good a place as any. I will say congrats on your day though, I know how hard it feels to get back into the swing of things. 
Well, having gotten a negative result on my Covid test, it looks as though I have a green light to go to Egypt on Sunday for some scuba diving in the Red Sea. Looking forward to what will hopefully be my first real holiday since February of 2000.
Goodnight all.
Thanks you!.
ā¦well I gotta do the rooms innit. Nothing else is working. Or ever works to keep me sober.
