You know rosa i think that just shows the growth that you have had in recovery… Your being honest and not shying away from your beer testing and stopped it. Thats a choice a huge one, that your not ignoring your mind nor your body anymore.
If you were to tell me you had a shit day and picked the juice id say press that reset because when we use its normally to avoid that emotion we dont want to deal with.
As many have said its your journey of recovery… There is no set of rules… Only guidance

Day 22. Anxiety, depression and loneliness. Toxic combination.
I have decided to let go of cigarettes. Announcing it here makes it semi-official. Let me see if I can give up a pack a day habit cold turkey 
Apart from that I need to get my life together. It’s pretty messed up right now. I was following the wrong dream.

- Coffee. Work. Had a lovely day yesterday. Being out and about with my bestie and her daughter, visiting an event, just like the old days. Thinking now how crazy it was I always needed alcohol on a day like this. On any day really. Never again. Sober and clean is what I am and life is much much better this way. have as good a week as you all can my friends. Clean and sober. Love from Amsterdam and the Keukenhof flower exhibit.
@RosaCanDo You do you lady. You own you. You know what’s best. Hugs.
@manishc I’m all for quitting smoking. And it can be done CT. Just be careful with your life friend.
@gmeeb 274 is awesome Brooke! Huge congrats!

Day 4.
Got out of bed at 2.30pm. Tossed and turned with the sweats and bad anxiety. I’m OK with 2.30pm. Today. I’m at peace with where I am at this point in time. I have no desire or urge to use so that’s good. I struggle to read this phone screen for longer than a few minutes. My eyes are jumbling words up. I have to really focus to type this. Its strange… Anyhoo im up, the sun is shining, the lake is in autumn so I’m going to shower and put gym clothes on and go for an afternoon stroll around the lake. It will be my first one in this autumn. It will be pretty. All the leaves 
fall is my favorite season

Day 133, feeling good!
The sun is out today which keeps doing wonders to me when its there.
Had a very busy but nice weekend with family and friends. Im starting to adopt more to the Bart who doesnt do drink and other substances anymore. I notice people around me have that too which somewhat eases my mind when im around them.
Saw friends saturday night that where absolutely wasted, made me feel glad i did not have to go there anymore, and waking up the next morning without any sign of a hangover confirmed that feeling.
Happy to have found this place and NA, you people rock and i wouldnt be able to do it without you.
Have a great day people!
