Day 214: Restless night. Maybe nap later…but glorious with the windows cracked and listening to soft rain last night. Now the birdies are waking up. I’m struggling with some thoughts of drinking. I’ve mentioned I relapsed last year at this time and it’s maddening to be having thoughts pop in now, whether it’s Spring fever or just the addiction creeping. I’m not drinking today. I have too much gratitude for what being sober has done for my life and well being. Time to get more active in my recovery, me thinks. Sending strong sober vibes, amigos.

@anon27760155 Congratulations on 250 days. Watching you move through and past life’s obstacles as you stack up the days is awesome. Keep doing YOU cuz you’re amazing.
@Dolse71 Nice to see you enter the 200 club. I’m proud of you Paul & grateful for your presence here.
@AyBee Awesome numbers. Seeing you inch up on 2 years is inspiring. Oh. . .can I have Patrick with my icecream???
@RosaCanDo Hope you can get at what’s behind those thoughts and squash them. You are doing fantastic Amiga and I know you’ve got this.
297 days. I was able to cool my jets yesterday and despite attempts to talk to the roommate no conversation took place. Instead I put my thoughts into words and sent him a text. Going forward he had better smarten up or he can ship out. My man and the girls are heading home today and I’m feeling giddy about it. I just want to wrap the 3 of them into my arms and not let go for a while. Not looking like it’s going to be a very nice day so plan to busy myself with some more cleaning. And a nap or even two! My sleep has been shit the past couple of nights but I think my mind is settling and a peaceful nap shouldn’t be a problem today. It was a great feeling yesterday to be all alone & not feel lonely. Sat in my camper and belted out tunes singing to my heart’s content. Music and singing can be such a savior for me and I’m so thankful to have this outlet.

That’s where I’m at too. We can do this…
One day. Possibly soon. Or not.
I’ll watch your lead

Checking in. I struggle with cravings and it’s not even evening yet. I know I shouldn’t question sobriety as the only right choice, because otherwise I’m lost. I have to think about it as an indisputable fact. Going to go outside in the afternoon and hopefully meet my friends in the weekend. And probably will spend a lot of time here.

Day 19. I did something crazy today. I stayed off my prescription meds. I am so tired of meds. I have been on different types of meds since I was a teen. I feel like shit now. I don’t want to depend on my meds anymore but the madness is too strong. I told my wife. She casually told me - “so go have them”. It’s become a part of our lives. I am trying to hold on as long as possible. No meds till I can do it.

Checking in day 258
Test came back negative. That was definitely an eye opener though that I need to to get this vaccine ASAP. I was feeling so strong and healthy before this and now I feel so unmotivated and weak.
But today is a new day. I haven’t done anything hardly for 7 days. I’ve got to pick myself back up. Two steps forward and one step back.
Congrats @Dolse71 for your 6 months 
Congrats @julied on 60 days
Congrats @OfTheNorth on 60 days as well, glad you’re here. 
All my sober pals, love you guys.

Speaking from someone who works in heathcare… pls check with your Dr. as some meds have a whiplash effect if you cold turkey stop them. You are doing so well and I hate to see it sabotaged by a med rebound!
