Whoever recommended La Croix water as a tip for cravings is the bomb! I can’t remember who on here told me this but I went today and got some so far I love it! It basically gives me that same warm rush as alcohol but of course none of the drunk mess part. This place has been a GOD send!

Day 12.
6am.
11 degrees.
Today is my proper day one of OTP class. I feel like its the first day of school. I even woke up naturally at 6am with no alarm 
I want to go to office works ( staples for all my u.s friends 
) and buy all the school supply stuff and pens and note books etc lol ! I havnt been this excited in I dont know how long. I think there are about ten people in my class. I feel that’s a good amount. I may even make a new friend there , who knows! I’m just excited to be able to shower and dress and put abit of make up on and actually have some where to go. I have a purpose !! I’ve been waiting for such a long time for something meaningful to do…I think they also assist with employment to some degree once the course in finished in four months. So I’m very excited to see what’s going to evole from here on… Today is a good day

Day 241: Totally blew by 240 days! 8 months is technically tomorrow by the date. Having a rough day today with a migraine, but I’m not getting them as often, which is great. Going to take it easy and stay off the screens for a while.

Checking in on day 21. Feeling better today. Took a walk in the sunshine and felt content (leaving the house is key!).
Finally started to take up some of the 49202 projects in my appartement and mounted the bike on the wall (I moved in 2 months ago and there is still sooo much to do). Trotting along, hope everyone has a fantastic day!
@Tomek I hope you find a good therapist asap! I had the same experince. Nobody takes new patients, except you’re willing to pay extra or have private insurance. It’s frustrating, but I haven’t given up hope yet.
@RosaCanDo 8 months tomorrow 
get the icecream ready!

It’s like the first day back to school! This is going to be great for you, @apes2020! I did a 4 week OTP, and it was tremendously beneficial to be around other people. The pandemic and isolation was just awful for me, and going to OTP made that clear. So excited for you and this journey!

This does sound a bit unfair though in the long run it might be doing you a huge favour and keeping you away from temptation. Great sober days BTW. 
I will be praying for your friend with all my heart. That is so scary. Also, I am over here celebrating that your new meds are working so well, that is awesome!!

I had something similar happen to me in July last year it was my sister’s wedding I know how you feel, just accept that even though you wanted to be there it wasn’t your choice and don’t blame yourself for others actions

Day 311.
Work and life are serving me up buffet-sized helpings today, this week. Blech. But it’s okay, because I haven’t ordered the bottomless-wine-glass to go with it! My mom’s been discharged, which is great, and I’ll head out of town on the weekend (masked to the gills) to go see her for the week and work from there.
Not only sobriety, but just so many things are best served by taking them one day at a time… We did today, fine friends. It’s not too much to take on tomorrow too. What do you say…?
G’night, sweet sober dreams to all. 
@Beforemy30s congrats on 3 weeks! and you too @Penguin!
@MrsOdh sending you and your Pa and fam all my best wishes!
