Yea I go to meetings and text/call friends in the program, have readings and books, and of course checking in on here. It’s a mental thing. I’m really proud of myself but I’m also shocked at 2 days of cravings near 90 days. I sometimes drink yummy sodas to help the sugar cravings although I’m more into teas and sparkling waters. Thank you!!!

That heart is sending love, not liking the content of the post.
I don’t know what to say really. I know I care about you and your journey and a lot of people here do. I admire your strength and openness. I have seen you reach out and help others. You belong here. Of course you are worthy of happiness, worthy of recovery. You absolutely should not let the substance take over.
Did something happen to trigger this? Please share with us more if it will help.

9 months today! Im quiet stoked about it! Although i havent been going to the forums zooms much lately you guys still mean the world to me and i lurk the forum on a daily basis to get insights on about anything.
So thank you all! I would have never been able yo achieve this without the help from the forum and the NA programm.
No longer will i have to live in this spiritual prison i used to be in. Life is alot of work and im sure it will remain like this. But its so much better then it used to be!
Hope you all have a great sober day! You got this!

It does get easier, for me anyway. I think you’re doing awesome, your body and mind are on their own time table as far as getting back to your original settings, 
I recently moved and one day I was sweaty and exhausted and a thought of a cold one passed through my mind but it was more of a habit thought than an urge. I acknowledged it and moved along.
Stick around, you are doing it!

Just a quick check in on day 92.
I made it through the bank holiday weekend. Temptations were strong yesterday and I nearly convinced myself to get back on the pop. A quick look at my sober counter and it soon passed.
I hope everyone had a great weekend

@anon27760155 Danni dear. Has something happened? Where is that BS coming from? Addiction might have made you act like those words you say but the Danni I know is empathetic, caring and genuine. The Danni I know it’s not a cunt.
Fuck addiction, fuck alcohol, fuck drugs, fuck gremlins!!!
Always here, just a phone call away.

Fuck Danni, don’t use no matter what please!!! You are none of those things just like so many others have said. I agree that you sound like you’re stuck inside your head. We don’t go to the attic without an adult, please call someone here. You have so many people here including me that love and respect you so fucking much! You still have my WhatsApp number, I’m here for you too. Sending strength and love your way, you can do this!!!

Bro the same thing happens to me even though I’m on meds as well. I’ve realized now that they do come in waves and they will go away. I just went through it recently and reached out on the mental health thread and got a lot of support. I’ve always gotten a lot of support there over this past year. Stay strong and make sure to give yourself compassion. This thing is bigger then us and we just need to go with the flow. What part of California are you coming to? I’m in San Diego, maybe we could grab some coffee while you’re out here. Have a great day Chris, stay strong

Checking in at the end of day 239.
Haven’t checked in for a few days. Been reading, though. My alcoholic voice has seen an opportunity and has been talking to me today, so I’m back to checking in.
Have a great sober day, wherever you are.
Goodnight.
