I’ve might have worded it wrong on saying the one addiction, i meant it as a question to myself on just keeping my addictive brain away from one addiction not multiple and if it has come across any other way thats not my intention.

3days of no sleep makes me want to give in

Continued tic attacks today makes me want a substance
Doing a training day and actively been disengaged because my brain found it boring makes want to self sabatoage, go finding something to get a buzz off and if i just lapse on pmo all will be good as ive had the relief.

But thank you for what you have written, totally accept to much pressure on myself and other outside factors are never gonna help me, its one of those days where i desire to be in a bed trying not adult


And for me these inputs i put
 I look back and go yeah i got though that day ill get through this one.
Stil doesnt curve the urge

Its a battle and im learning instead of using x

Never against anything.

Day 219: Hanging in there, my period started and it is obvious now that hormone shifts trigger headache/migraine. Which is great to finally recognize as a pattern so I can adjust meds. Woke up with a migraine at 2 am and couldn’t sleep again till later this morning, but I’ve had a nap and am feeling much better. Next month I can plan ahead and take a preventive medication. Progress! I can take it easy the rest of the day. Sending sober vibes, amigos! :heartpulse:

Danni I don’t know who or what’s hurting you but I know for a fact that you are one of the most caring, brave, compassionate and loving people I have ever met. You are so strong and so genuinely real that I am blown away all the time by you and what you walk through clean and sober. I know it happens sometimes but when you’re hurt I hurt for you too. I know that many others here feel the same way too about you. Lots of love and prayers heading your way my friend, you are amazing!!! :sunglasses::metal:t2:

It’s been a long time since I posted here. I have been lurking, reading posts, wanting to reply or post myself but thought i was getting motivation from reading everyone’s posts. I had went 217 days free from alcohol doing just that.until I couldn’t
Monday I screwed up royally and drank a whole bottle of strawberry moscato. I had my brother and sister inlaw staying with us for a few days and they wanted to sit by the pool
she looks like a model in her bathing suit, while me
not so much
I just wanted out of reality for a while. Which drinking only gave me a headache and made me dizzy and lightheaded. No one knew i drank that day until i fessed up to my husband today and i will tell my daughter later today
she had been so proud of me not drinking for 7 months
:sleepy:. Back to day 1 and happy to be joining all of you on this journey.

@anon27760155 Love and strength sent your way
@littlemisschatterbox Awesome numbers and saying.
@Charlie_C Amazing job on 5 months. Keep kicking ass at kicking ass as you’re doing great.
@CapriciousCapricorn Do what works for you as only you can walk your journey. Your presence here has made myself, as well as many others I’m sure, feel welcome and a sense of belonging. I appreciate you & am inspired by your footsteps.

302 days. Feeling somewhat on edge today. Thinking it’s a great idea to go for a solo drive later and release the emotions I was unable to yesterday. I sat with a lot of uncomfortable feelings yesterday and still foresee much time needed to process. Don’t really have someone to talk them out with and will most likely unpack on my personal thread later. This getting through feelings isn’t easy but without my sobriety I would just be ignoring them and not making any progress.

Checking in, 4 months today!

I did a few seminars over the last weekend, one about mental health first aid, that was with exams and all, and it went well!

Then the other one about sexuality and sexual health, very interesting and got me processing for sure.

I hope you all have a wonderful sober day! :hugs::blossom::heart:

Glad you’re back Licorice. And you’re sober. No one will take the 7 months of sobriety from you. And you’re right back on track now. I hope that it will just has been one day and now you’re going for another 7 months and way beyond that. You being right here now gives me all hope it will be like that. One day at a time as it is for all of us. Success!
