Day 859
Feeling pretty good this morning. Iāve been struggling with back pain a lot recently and although itās still around I feel a bit looser today. Fingers crossed itās moving in the right direction.
Iāve also managed to shift most of the lock down weight Iāve put on. Not a huge amount, 5/6 kilos, but I have felt it both mentally and physically. And found it difficult the lose. As someone that has always had problems with weight/body image itās significant. So weighing in sub 70kg felt great.
Have a good day folks

@adeygaga49 congratulations with your half a year mark Adrienne! 
Welcome back @Kmcc123 
Day 1016 
Still thinking about the situation yesterday with my eldest son (drank this much that he ended up in hospital with alcohol intoxication).
I talked about it with some friends and I heared lotās of stories about other kids/adults who ended their party in a hospital like my eldest did.
Iām an addict. I had my share of black outs, bruises, trowing up, etc but never had to go to a hospital. How much do you have to drink for that? Ore how fast? Ore do I think to simple?
And what surprised me as well is how normal lotās of people think about this.
I had a conversation with my 3 kids about it (18, 20 and 21). The all have one ore more friends who has had the hospital experience. Even one who has had her stomache pumped out.
My son needed a intravenous drip. The downside of that (in my opinion) is that he had not much of an hangover the next day 
I really hope he has learned. Fingers crossed 
I hope there comes a big bill from use of ambulance and hospital to give him a strong reminderā¦
I canāt do more then giving him a good example and sharing my thoughts with him.
Today Iām sober

- Coffee. My long weekend is here. It just started, still in my bed, with an old fashioned pang of anxiousness, seeing before me some tasks Iāve been putting of -oldfashionedly- for too long. Now recognizing the feeling of cramping up, feeling the knot in my stomach tightening, and remembering how Iāve dealt with this stuff for decades. Which is by procrastinating even more, pushing away the anxiousness, learning to forget and avoid and distract by doing other stuff like drugging and boozing, or reading or watching tv or internet or porn, instead of actually facing up to what I have to face.
Going to change that right now and going to actually do some stuff instead of pushing it to the back of my mind. So off I go. Have a good day all. Sober and clean. Love from a cool cloudy Amsterdam.
@Fnkychic Hope the doc can help you with some relief JF. Back pain is the worst.

Drink and drugs are not the problem, You are the problem and these are your solution. There is another solution. Good morning

Thank you for your kind words. I hope your back appointment later goes well and that you find some relief also.
Iāve had issues with my neck/right shoulder for years, but Iāve done something to my lumbar this time. Iām stretching well throughout the day and lying flat on a hard floor which helps. Iām hoping Iāve just torn something (it does feel muscular) and that it will heal on itās own

@Misokatsu thanks for your understanding!!! Yes! For me is one of the greatest things I can offer, I dedicate time to think about a particular person or situation and speak about it with Jesus. Day 7. I feel grateful

Hello friends. Checking in on day 20. Having coffee and listening to a bunch of crows arguing with one another outside. I had a weird dream about rats last night. There were, like, five rats living in my room and I was trying to figure out how to get rid of them. I ended up getting some rat poison, but then I started feeling really guilty for killing the poor rat. I was happy to wake up to a rat-free room

Hey all, checking in on day 382 alcohol free.
Iām reading a book on optimism, written by the guys who created the Life is Good T-shirt company and there was a great concept that I wanted to share with you guys; itās focused on being grateful.
The basic idea is to live your life with the phrase āget toā always in mind. For exampleā¦Instead of saying or thinking I āhave toā go to work. You think I āget toā go to work because there are people who would do anything for a job.
The principle can really apply to anything. I āget toā go shop for food in a well stocked grocery store instead of I āhave toā go get groceries.
Iām sure you guys get the idea. Anyway, Iāve been trying to live with that mindset for a few days now and it really does make a difference. Just wanted to share with you guys.
Today I get to be sober for another beautiful day where I wonāt miss a thing.
Have a great one guys
