Great to see you Kevin, welcome back.
Blessings and sobriety!
Checking in on day 27. It’s great to be in this community. Still doing the live experiment. Its not so exciting this time, quite repetitive. But it reminds me every time I do it why i have to do it. Wishing everyone a great day
That photo looks so peaceful and tranquil
Thank you, I like making pictures, especially with my new phone. The pictutes look so much better with it, glad I bought it.
Thank you all for the
Starting over again. Cant understand why I drank. So stupid, where was my head? Feeling really bad with my self , disapointet.
All you can do is start over. As you are. Be proud for being sober today. Next time when you’re craving please check in here before giving in. Maybe we can talk you out of it. It’s what we’re here for. Success.
Thank you! I Just dont understand how it could happen, it happend Just so quik. I know how bad I Will feel when I drink, all the pain I get in my body, and still I drank. Its really like they say: you only ha e to say No to one drink.
This really show me that I cant have Just one drink. That one drink always become one bottle, two bottles or more.
Just have to keep going forward and dont drink.
Day 815
I have walked around my local park hundreds of times during lockdown, to the point that I grew to hate it. The boredom combined with the bad weather stopped me bothering all together. Only recently have I been going again and today, with the sun trying to break out and the cygnets about, life felt a bit brighter than it has in a while.
This I ask my self. What can I do different. I dont know why I drank, I know what drinking do to me and still I drank. I was doing so good, almost 20 days, feeling so good!
- My weekend is here! The weather is not looking too bad. I’m on the hunt for a new bike. Not that I really need it but it’s my kind of retail therapy. I can get one more or less for free from my employer once every three years. And now’s the time and I can use this type of sturdy yet light urban cruiser I’m looking at.
Getting back in the rhythm of work seems to have lifted my spirits. I obviously need some structure in my life. I’m also glad to be going back to therapy group Thursday. Need to work on myself and my relationships a bit more. Which is only possible because I’m sober and clean. One day at a time. Have as good a day as you all can friends. Clean and sober. Love from my balcony where my herbs are happy to catch the morning sun.
@KevinesKay Glad to see you back Kevin! Hoping your new insights will help you on your road.
@M-be-free49 & @Singtone Sobriety is giving me a chance to discover myself and my place in the word and all that encompasses. It’s such a great journey.
@apes2020 Go see a PT asap friend! Success.
When the horrors of drinking fade, it is easier to fall for the lies "it wasn’t that bad’ “I can control it now” etc. In the beginning I needed to do sobriety activities everyday, could be meetings or podcasts, I did Annie Grace alcohol experiment, 30 days of videos, homework, for free.
9m 7d
My main uni will be going online from tomorrow, it was a sudden decision apparently. I am looking forward to not commuting but the increase in screen time is not good.
My husband had his 2nd covid shot and had a fever. At one point he asked me what time it was, and I pointed out there was a clock on the wall, and he said, “but I feel bad”, too bad to turn your head to look at a clock?! Man flu has a new variant it seems.
Just an other check in after I resett my counter this morning. Feeling really Sad today for my relapse.
Don’t beat yourself up. I was there many times where you are now. And people said here that I had to learn from the relapses. At first I didn’t get it, but now I think I do. I know now that I have to share my thoughts and feelings more often with my beloved ones. In my first month, I must avoid certain places and friends etc. I feel stronger and more confident than ever and I’ll try to let all the judgements from others and about myself out of the door. Being ashamed or self hate doesn’t bring you anywhere. Be gentle to yourself, I think you too deserve that.
Hey everyone, checking in on day 338. Nothing new to report here, just actively working towards my 1 year mark and making sure I don’t get complacent and mess up.
Have a great one guys
Day 340 clean and sober today. I hope everyone has a great day today, love you guys!!!
I can completely relate to this and I just ride it out until it loses its power. Sometimes it’s for weeks on end but it does shift a bit. Depression is a bitch for real. I’m here if you ever want to talk.
Thank you. Im trying not to, but today its really hard not to. Feeling so bad with my self and the decision to drink yesterday. Pain in my body. I dont ever want to feel this again.
