Thank you @Singtone, @M-be-free49 and @Its_me_Stella! Yes I feel it healing me too just like you mentioned! Itā€™s been so dark for so long and itā€™s the darkness that they and I both share thatā€™s being brought to the light. Thank you so much for all of the support and kind words and thank you for sharing this path with me. :sunglasses::metal:t2::heart::heart::heart:

Are there programs where people can get kits at a reduced cost or free?

Happy and a bit proud. Still live happens one day at a time and I am grateful that I donā€™t have to ask myself the question, whatā€™s after this or that number. Just another day. I am tremendously grateful I took that decision some 1000 days ago.

They give them for free here at the health units, they will show you how to use it too. There are classes you can take if that would make you more comfortable.

I would not have a hard time learning how to use it, and donā€™t have anyone I would expect to have to use it on. Would like to have one just in case I did ever need it. Esp for one person who I am rarely around, but also just the random person who might need saving. I googled prices in US a month or so ago and they were expensive, although the price of life can not be measured in dollars. I will call around.

Congratulations! It is exciting and a wonderful achievement to celebrate even if it is just a good feeling in your heart! Big huge congrats!!! 1000 xoxo

Donā€™t be a bit proud, be immensely proud. 1,000 days is a phenomenal achievement that us mere mortals can only dream of.

Gratuliere 1000 times Franzi! Be very proud friend. I am. Of you. 1000 times one day at a time. Thatā€™s not a small thing like this Simca 1000 that my granddad owned. Ah the memories of fitting I have no idea how many boys in there for some party. But thatā€™s another story. This day is yours and you better celebrate!

  1. Breakfast. In a bit of a hurry as my spinning class starts in 45 minutes. Itā€™s a bit early for the weekend but still happy I booked it as it is no weather for outdoor activities. Still have to get there though. Well. Iā€™m sober and clean. Iā€™m living life. Iā€™m with my peeps here who give me inspiration and love each and every day. Have a s good a weekend as you all can friends. Clean and sober. Love from my place.

@Brittb12 omg so pleased you ok, how frightening for you.
@anon74766472 huge numbers congrats on your 1000 days

Another sober day done, and the zip wire complete. It was so high and fast. Still do not know how i let myself get harnassed up. Was going at 90 mph over a quarry. It was surreal but felt exhilarated after, when my legs came backā€¦ another first :blush:
We went to the pub again, love being with my friends but just dont like pubs, we did not have a meal, so it was just coffee and soda for me, i just wanted to go bedā€¦ you see people change when drinking and its hard when you not on that level. Was relieved to get back to hotel room and read my bookā€¦ but a wonderful day.

Have a good day all

Iā€™m glad your OK and thanks for taking the time to remind us of our reality. You were very lucky, make sure to take some time out for yourself as Iā€™ve had friends go into shock a while after the adrenaline runs out.
