Day 207
Checking in, not much going on here. I really simplified my life. Maybe oversimplifyed. I need some friends. I think its hitting me because my daughters birthday is coming up and I have nobody to even invite to a party. She is such a social butterfly, I feel I am letting her down. Traveling has kept me busy. But now I am home and feeling the loneliness creeping up. I guess its a pandemic, a lot of people must be in the same boat. I guess I can start to make an effort to work on it.

Morning friends :slight_smile: checking in on another day :slight_smile: feeling much better today but I know I can’t get complacent in recovery bcuz even good days create the urge to use. I had a good sleep. Woke up feeling refreshed. Just sitting here drinking coffee right now & scrolling through TS. Hubby gets money today so im feeling abit anxious about having an urge to use. Not going to feed the trigger. Just do what I can to distract and stay positive and move through it one baby step at a time. Have a great day everyone!

@Weldershawn7 congrats on a month :tada:

190 days no alcohol.
158 days no cocaine.

Another low day. Have spent it in bed. No walk. I’ve just had a take-away delivery so that’s not good either. Maybe tomorrow I’ll snap out of this spiral :pray:t2:

@Mno I’m excited for you and your upcoming mini-vacation. I hope you have 5 days of doing whatever makes you happy.
@anon60334405 Keep doing you cuz you’re doing amazing. The old you and these old friends are better left behind.
@anon27760155 Danni your smile and post made my morning. It’s awesome seeing the transformation you are able to feel and see.
@Clarity You are definitely not alone in these feelings. The pandemic and it’s restrictions are impacting so many people on so many levels. Hugs girl and prayers for peaceful times.

245 days and my official 8 months. Part of me doesn’t even feel like celebrating today but I know I need to do something to recognize this milestone and celebrate myself. Getting to this point hasn’t been easy and I am super proud of myself. I have faced the rollercoaster of emotions head on and remained sober. There are still a lot of relationship skeletons I am needing to address but I’m doing it. I’m able to be alone and not feel lonely. I am learning to see others’ actions as theirs and responding less from a defensive stance. I may have a long way to go but need to acknowledge how far I’ve come. Again a big shout out to my TS family for being here. Not too sure how often my words help you guys but you’re definitely a big help to me and I thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Meth free for 122 days, hit a bit of a wall yesterday. But in my search for useful resources I found another forum specifically aimed at giving up meth, which gave me another outlet, and I feel better today.

In case anyone else is looking for forums to help quitting meth it’s the aptly named ‘stop speeding’ community on reddit.

Wishing you all well

I felt like that this last week, i’ve been forcing myself to go on long walks and call a few good eggs on my walk. Makes such a difference. Hope you snap out of it soon

Day 94. Feeling really at ease and in a determined and strong state of mind. A close fellow backslith in alcohol usage today. The only thing I can do is point him the way to find help and fellows.

On the other side. Today was beautiful. I got to talk to my 3 year old son today for the first time since June 2020 because of my heavy cocaine relapse during that time. So grateful that now after 3 months of sobriety I’m finally back in touch :heart:

Have a great day everyone.
