Checking in at the end of day 50.
50 full days, including 7 full weekends. Incredible. It has taken ages to get here, but Iām loving the view.
Found out that a couple of close friends, who I have drank a lot with in the past and who drink every single day, are 7 days sober today. We had a chat about how great sobriety is about 10 days ago and they have bought in. I think that I feel about as happy about that as I do about my half century.
Have got a lot on in work but I am really enjoying it and hungry to get it done instead of avoiding it and just getting out of my head.
Life is so much better now.
Have a great sober day, wherever you are.
Goodnight.
Checking in. 50 days no alcohol, no cigarettes. Kind of unbelievable. But here I am!
Have a great Monday everyone!
Quick check in on day 253ā¦super busy at the moment but Iāll catch up with everyone elseās posts later today. Have a great one everybody.
Great job Natasha on your 50 days!! No booze AND no butts !!
I bet that really does feel unbelievable. You better believe it! It must feel great!
Your worth every bit of it.
Congratulations on your 50 days Tony
Thatās HUGE! It sure does feel good donāt it? So cool about your friends too. Keep coming back. Your worth it
Sobriety is not an anchor. Itās a pair of wings.
Wooohooo is right!! Great work on your 100 days!! I am glad you had a good weekend.
Oh sweetheart! Thank you for posting. Iām sorry itās so tough for you right now. We are here for you, we care, we wish to see you live, stay sober and find freedom and peace. I do believe processing things will eventually being those things to you. You are sweet, precious, irreplaceable and wonderful. Never ever doubt that.
I have been so busy, and have missed sooo many milestones and dont think I could possibly catch up. That being said, it doesnt change how amazed I am by each person on TS. Your stories, successes, pains, excitment, and the personal tests you all face give me so much courage and strength everyday. You are all so beautiful! Day 50 today for me. I am so amazed and fucking PROUD to post that today.
Big love to you all!
Day 168: Working on a sour mood this morning. Itās a strange way to wake up from a restful sleep, or maybe it wasnāt as restful and thatās the culprit? I find myself getting irritated by little things and then mostly just irritated at myself. I think Iām feeling stagnant. Probably could do with some reading to occupy my mind today.
Checking in on day 409.
Monday. Had a okay workday. But overall a pretty below okay day. Talked negative to myself. About myself. Had cravings. And now because of the house I still share with my ex Iām forced to talk to her about the new electric bill that came in. EVERY TIME I see her name or chat with her my heart starts beating real fast.
She is every reason TO drink for me. The shit she did to me I canāt even begin to type it all. I am so glad I went through the breakup sober but man right now I need my sobriety and recovery more than ever.
Also Iām super stoked about the sale of that stupid house. In a few months we can sign the last few documents and sheās sold.
Se there is a light at the end of this break up tunnel.
I still amaze myself and my therapist every time I see her with my ability to stay sober on my own with all the break up stuff that has happened.
My recovery in general is from my alcohol addiction and the toxic and abusive relationship I had with my ex.
But heyā¦ life is better now.
Today is a good day to be sober!!
Thanks for reading my crap and have a great monday!
Aw Rosa, I feel like I just went through the same thing. I hope your day gets better! Im sending you some love todayā¦ Hope it helps a bit!
Trigger Warning
Day 255 clean and sober today. Not doing so great today, lots of suicidal thoughts yesterday and through the night. I know enough that if they get worse I will check myself into a crisis house to get better. Love you guys
Hey Rob,
thank you for being honest. Itās a brave step to reach out for help. Idk the source of your negative spiral but whatever it is, your life on this planet matters more. You are a valuable member of this forum. I hope you have people who can help around you in real life too. Sending you good vibes and a friendly hug
yessss!! Great job on getting to 100 days.
Checking in sober. With major back pain. Looks like Iāll be laid up in bed today. I didnāt do anything!! Actually I was getting up out of my chair to go to my chiropractor appointment I do every other week and OUCH! my back spasmed. How fortunate I was heading to my chiropractor. Looks like Iāll be seeing him a lot in the next few days.
At least Iām sober and have no desire to drink the pain away. Although a muscle relaxer could be nice . But I donāt have any doctors that prescribe things like that for me. Never have.
Itās a great day to be sober folks.
So sorry to hear this Rob. I will keep you in my prayers. 255 days is a pretty great number of days to be sober. Be careful.
Iām proud of you rob. Always feel free to message me if u ever need to bro.
Oh no! I hope your back gets better rather sooner than later. My thoughts are with you
