I have really struggled with this too this week not being able to drink and annoyed at ones who can ! But just play it forward . Thatā€™s what I have done , I know one beer wouldnā€™t be enough and before you know it Iā€™d be hammering bottles of vodka at 10am and I do not want to go back to that. Going out for a nice lunch today and Iā€™m gonna focus on the food , have a nice AF beer in the sun so I donā€™t feel left out and then a nice walk to burn it all off . These are our choices for a better life and it is better ! Keep strong

It is safe unless you fall of course. Like life I guess. Donā€™t ask me, when climbing indoors people always try to talk me into exercising falling. I am tooo scared to let me fall into the rope. It happens though. Last time remember it was like slow motion, I felt my hands letting go, no fucking way out. I am still here. Rope had me and adrenaline as well. :joy::stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

Hey Julie.
I get what you mean. When I first quit drinking I was so so freaking pissed off that I couldnā€™t drink like a normie. I was angry all the time. I got out and did a lot of angry power walking sometimes twice a day. I never ever ever had just one drink in my life. Probably never ever had just 2 either. Not sure where you are in your sobriety but Iā€™m so not angry about that anymore. Iā€™m really enjoying the clear head the good nights sleep and no hangovers. I love it. Keep up the good work.
:pray:t2::heart:

I think Schittā€™s Creek is medicine for so many situations. Your set up looks lovely. Think how amazing you will feel after a sober birthday. A huge deal :muscle:

I did this as well last year. I knew what I was doing but I still did it anywayā€¦ I think I used the excuse ā€œIā€™m turning 40- canā€™t deal etcā€ or some BS excuse to get onā€¦ Ended up in hospital 3 times in 4 daysā€¦ Stayed clean 11 months from then onā€¦almost death keeps you clean. Till your not again :thinking::grimacing:ā€¦ Still clean so happy days this year :v: and thank you, love my warm n cozy cave I call home :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye::heartpulse:

Good Morning. I have not posted in the past couple of days. I meant to post my 30 day mark, just a few days behind LOL. Have a great weekend and be safe.

Saw this quote the other day:

"Sometimes life shuffles us around and throws things out of order, but in the end, we always return to who we once were :100::
