Youāre right, Paul. Weāve all changed for the better, including you. We no longer look for the solution at the bottom of a bottle or drug. Weāre learning how to live life on lifeās terms and I think weāve all done a great job doing so. Each one of us has been handed multiple shit sandwiches along the way and weāre still sober. Win win!! Love you my friend.

Day 65! Continued today to reduce coffee consumption. I did a half a cup and then switched to tea. Iāve gone through tea only phases in my life before and Iām leaning towards that right now. This week I am feeling less anxiety and stress. Iām not sure whatās helping exactly because Iāve been doing many things to relate to it, but maybe itās just a combination of everything: daily yoga, guided meditations, dream journaling, box breathing, less caffeine, adaptagens, other supplements to help with hormonal stressesā¦and not drinking of course. Iāve also been trying to work more consciously with negative thoughts ā identifying and reorienting my mind when they arise. Sometimes it seems futile but I do think itās actually helping. Hope everyone is well.

We will rise above
I see so much hope on this thred
Also a bit just pushing through
I saw someone talking about their addict thoughts
It was interesting for me to understand this
Maybe itāll help me if I can understand these addictive thoughts as what they are which is indeed, my addict thoughts

This weekend I planned to go to the pool up the canyon but couldnāt because Octoberfest was happening. Was with my good friend. She and I have a real relationship (I mean we hang out sober all the time) but drank heavily together for years before she had kids.
She wanted to stay and have a few beers so I was her DD and didnāt drink. It was interesting to not have a craving to drink. Didnāt even hesitate, just said no. Also, watching drunk people slurring, stumbling, loud culver etc. really good for me to see.
I always thought drinking was ācoolā or fun or playful. Itās notā¦ā¦ itās pretty stinky, sloppy and gross. Iām soooooooo happy Iām sober. To wake up with a clear head and no anxiety after a night out.
Definitely not going to be around drinking all the time, I know cravings are just around the corner. Iām just grateful for an afternoon of perspective.

Long dayā¦ Iāve been taking naltrexone for the last 10 days and it makes me tired and irritable. If itās not better by the end of the week Iām going to stop. Last thing I need is to be more annoyed by life while trying to parent and work and be sober. Itās supposed to help me NOT drink for fuckās sake!
26 days done.
