Iām recognizing some trauma from my early teen years today. Watching some stupid show triggered it. Doing my best to just sit in the discomfort and let go.
I think this is a huge reason I started drinking in the first place in my early teens. Thinking about the things I went through as a 13 year old kid still brings up shameā¦.
Not repressing, not obsessing, just recognizing and letting go.
Grateful to be sober and have a place to check in. Thanks for being here.

Exactly. For me it means that thanks to the work I put in my recovery I still might fall in holes (dark thoughts and make the same mistakes) but it gets easier and I stay less time in these holes and eventually, maybe I have learned my lesson and take another road.
Edit: saying, I donāt understand, please precise is also a huge step. So ppl can explain differently, get to know each other better. Eg I love pictures and metaphors where your brain might not be wired like this, so communication might be hindered. So, giving feedback is a good thing.

Your right. I think Iām gonna give this a solid year on my career, I mean itās literally been about 3 months of doing this. Iām gonna practice harder and work for it harder, if I donāt get better in a years time then I will find something else. But I made 200 dollars off that tattoo today so to me that says Iām worth something.

Hell yeah man thatās so true. And now that I think about it, I joined a lifting forum when I first started lifting and posted videos and damn did I get the some criticism. Nobody seriously knows how to be humble and help ppl anymore. Which is kind of why I stick the self teaching, there is no drama then. I do miss my lifting, tomorrow I have anther tattoo and then Iām gonna go for a hike. Thanks for the pep talk bro

Day 92.
Sober tings ā¦
Today I had a pleasant surprise. I got a text from my bank telling me they had money to refund to me. I thought it was a scam at first because well why would the bank Want to randomly give me money without me first asking for it? 
Turns out, they do. And today I got refunded a few hundred dollars because apparently the universe its dishing out my manifesting orders
Ive been manic manifesting lately. And the synchronized moments of universal magic are showing uo everyday. And when these moments of alignment happen, the pure joy I feel Internally ripples through me and makes me smile so authentically I could cry. You know those moments of pure love joy and happiness that just happen out of no whereā¦thats why we are here on this earth, to experience love, joy, and happiness
It wasnāt the money In particular that made me excited, it was the way the universe orchestraded it to get it to Me how it did and at the moment and time that in didā¦
There is so much infinite magic in our human incarnations, be open to receiving it @Chiron

- Coffee. One more late shift ahead. Looking forward to my weekend after that which will be really free time as my therapy group is on summer break. Will still be working on my mental health though. ODAAT, sober and clean. Itās an essential part of my -and anybodyās- recovery. Recovery is about so much more than simply stopping using our DOC. have as good a day as you can all. Clean and sober. Love from Amsterdam.

3 days coming up today. Having my coffee again today, feels good drinking coffee and not wine in the morning. Had hard time fall asleep yesterday, lots of anxiety, so feeling tired today. Having some pains in my body, but feel pretty good, could be worse. Will not make big plans for the day, just take it easy and take the day as it come.
Good day to you all. Thank you

Ok doing good but when is it over? When do I get to feel like I have succeeded? I know it is ODAAT. and will probably always be. Just feeling a bit blue. Caught a cold, under quarantine. Had to get tested even though I am vaccinated. Canāt go to the gym. Have to work from home until I get a negative covid test. Everything was going so good and then this setback. Could be worse thoughā¦I could have picked up a bottle but not caving in. Stay strong peopleā¦we got this.

Day 73 AF
Yesterday I returned to work after 2 weeks off. I got seriously triggered when I was leaving work as the boss had put some beers in the fridge for the workers for the first time in months and it instantly took my thoughts to.a bad place. I was strong enough to close the fridge and go home but it was the first time in a couple of months that Iād had a serious urge.
