Day 489 clean and sober today. Had horrible dreams about Faith last night and her boyfriend, guess it’s a way of processing that it’s over. Some of you might remember when I was brand new here about the concert tickets thing? Where I just gave her the tickets because I wasn’t a jerk? Well after all this time she texted me saying she doesn’t mean to bring up any pain by contacting me but if I could send her information on the tickets again. Apparently she can’t find them. It was very painful to get that text so I just immediately blocked her. I’m still not over her and I need to protect my energy and my heart. Asking if you guys can send me some positive energy today I’m really kinda f**ked up at the moment. Have a great day everyone, love you guys 
Well done 
Congratulations on your 10 days!
Keep up the good work. One day at a time we can do this! 
Quick check in. . .
@Dazercat its always harder on the pawrents than the fur babies. That will be quite the reunion. Hope you have a fantastic time in TX. I’m sure you will!
@claire-lo always love seeing those shoes pop up. Congrats on 18 months and thanks so much for your contributions.
@anon53116147 hope you are on the mend, buddy. Something needs to change and hope you can figure that out sooner rather than later. Rooting for you.
I hit 7 months on 10/10. My life has done a complete 180 in a positive way. Dealing the a breast cancer scare with biopsy tomorrow and more info next week. Been on pins and needles since last Tuesday, but I’m in good hands and the wait is almost over. I’m beyond grateful this didn’t happen last year. Love to all my TS peeps!
Sending positive energy your way!! Good for you for blocking her, it may not be my place to say but you’ve spent plenty of time and energy on her and now you have bigger and better things you can focus on 
Sending strength and good vibes!
@SoberSenze Congrats on 10 Days! Double Digits! WooHoo!
@anon53116147 Mike, The power is within you. We are all on your side. Get back at it.
@Charlie_C I can’t tell you how proud I am to see you living life on sober terms. I did not like the one and only cruise I went on, but you’re making me want to go on another one. 
Day 4. Listening to the high school band practice. It brings back memories of cold desert mornings, doing what I love to do, dance and dance and dance. Same moves, over and over. Do it again. Do it again. Do it again. Do it, until you can do it in your sleep. That’s what sobriety and a sober life is all about. Keep working it, until it becomes part of you, becomes you.
I’d like to bring back an oldie but a goodie from the one and only @Yoda-Stevie, I still think of it every.single.time. I get it the shower. Every time. It counts for every situation that starts out less-than-comfortable.
Have a great day.
Lol, I can hear band practice most mornings as I live by the high school. I love it!
Yep, I have two high schools within two miles of me and a baseball stadium. I get all kinds of free entertainment.
Eh, maybe she has a case of severe codependency? Who knows! You’ll sort it out somehow, I’m sure.
And make better lady choices now that you’re sober 
Hey Rob,
this will pass. Good on you that you’re here to get it off your chest! I remember the concert tickets and you did the right thing by blocking her. If she lost them, it’s 100% her problem. No need to concern yourself about it.
Have a day, whether it’s nice or naughty, it’s still a day you get to live bc you’re clean and sober! 
Thanks @Nordique I wasn’t sure if blocking her was right but it definitely was. Like you said, no more wasting energy. Have an awesome day bro!
Thank you so much @Olivia, it’s really good for me to get the validation that I did do the right thing! Have an amazing day!
Man she’s ballsy; yeah keep her blocked, Rob. You’re done with that toxic shit.
Right on Donna thank you!!
Thanks 
feels good and the first time since joining TS
Checking in with two weeks in this mindset reset and doing great. I am really pleased that I’m feeling and doing better and am so grateful, but I’m also starting to feel even just a little bit proud of myself for recognizing that I wasn’t in the place I wanted to be, not in the frame of mind I wanted and seeing red flags BEFORE I spiraled and went off the deep end, whether that would manifest as depression or drinking again or both. The work is paying off. I’m also so super grateful that I haven’t had a migraine in a couple weeks, as well! I was averaging 1-3 headache days a week before then, so the combination of a change in migraine meds, some different supplements, better sleep, and maybe acupuncture seem to be working for me (knock on wood). I have to wonder whether there is a psychological component as I’m feeling much less stressed. Its gotta be helping prevent migraines…or helping keep the headaches from developing into something more serious. I still get pressure and tension headaches that are mild by comparison and caused mostly by the changing weather and certain activities, but they’re manageable. It’s still early days, but I’m hopeful!
Sending love, amigos. 
Congratulations 
Congratulations on your 7 months Lee. 
Thank you for continued support on here. You keep me going. I’ll be praying for complete healing for you. I’m so glad your here and dealing with this on your terms. Life’s terms.
Congratulations
