Day 393
Iā€™ve spent 10 days doing nothing! I think I over exerted myself or something, idk. A lot of stress from the move and then we did travel to 5 states in 6 weeks so I guess some down time was needed. Iā€™ve just lost all momentum. I know how to get it back. It all starts with yoga in the morning.
We have wayyyy too much stuff it is paralyzing. I need to donate a ton of stuff but my daughters dad is a hoarder so I have to do it while he is at work. :grimacing: He starts his job Monday on the other side of town and we are currently sharing a car so we shall see how this goes.
Missing my gym membership!!

You know you can have a perfect world around you but until you put your own demons to rest nothing will be enoughā€¦

You have a dislike for yourself
Your not comfortable being just you
Who do you actually talk things through with

You canā€™t do this all alone.

431 days. Recently posted on my personal thread that I was a victim of othersā€™ choices. Am starting to question my role in this. Finding myself in an uncomfortable living situation, AGAIN, but have chosen to stay and ride it out. Is my choice to stay and ā€œdealā€ with it an attempt to live life on lifeā€™s terms? Or is my choice abusive to myself? I have often struggled with putting myself first yet frequently am accused of making it all about me. I committed to myself not to make any changes or decisions until I feel balanced. Is my commitment blurring my vision of whatā€™s adding to my imbalance? I have a doctorā€™s appointment Tuesday and am still waiting for an appointment with my addictions counselor. I wonā€™t drink because I donā€™t drink but fuck would I like to ā€œescapeā€ for a while.

I know tomorrow will be my biggest test yet, going into an environment with lots of alcohol and I might come under some pressure.

I can do it but wish me luck anywayšŸ™

Thatā€™s a lot at the same time dear Danni. Iā€™m so proud of you for how far youā€™ve come since you choose to turn your life around. You follow your heart. You keep doing your own thing. Iā€™m sure things will work out. And keep going on the non smoking front, day three is awesome! Never again friend. Hugs. Love.

Good luck!! One of the best feelings in the world is making it through one of those situations sober! It makes you feel like you have leveled up in life. I hope you make it through so you can know what I am talking about!! :+1::+1:

If your missing something go find it , are wise words. Its the answer to most things in life really. Put in the work to make things happen etc.

It all comes down to the action we take. Having faith and prayer is great, I meditate on my prayers so to speak, but I donā€™t just sit and wait for my HP to make all the good come to me and the bad to melt away etcā€¦ I put in the work.

I listen to where my intuition guides me and I take the daily small steps towards create things in my life and eliminating what I dont want in my life.

Mike, you cant just pray and think that a HP will fix things. You have to do the work.

I donā€™t think the higher power is going to do the work. Im saying im praying and struggling to do the work. Im just coming here and venting bc itā€™s better then holding it in, if I speak it then I only have to deal with half of it. Iā€™m doing the best I can and unfortunately canā€™t really do any better then that. When I was sober for the 15 months it was very easy to say all the same stuff you guys say. And weā€™ll now Iā€™m struggling with it, Im just having a hard time and working it the best I can.
