I’m so sorry. Sending all the love and strength I can muster
Sending you lots of love.
Thank you Carolyn
congratulations
Check in nothing really to say just having the up and down happy & sad kinda day
Checking in sober and sleepy. Full day today and definitely feeling the weekend approaching. Usually dreary weather for several days will get me down, but I haven’t felt that this week, so I am pleased there. No desire to drink today and I hope that remains the case tomorrow. I’m using a new workbook for healing that is digger deeper and going to try a different type of meeting Saturday so we shall see. I am looking forward to it as I find that learning all of the different approaches to something we can, be it addiction, spirituality, improving health, parenting, and so on, we find the truth for ourselves in the collective.
Wishing peaceful night or day for all!!
Congratulations on 10 days!!
There are good and bad days in sobriety… I often go to bed early too on the tough ones.
Day 28, started rough but doing better tonight. Starting outpatient rehab next Tuesday. My sponsor told me she loves me today and it wasn’t even weird. I am so grateful for the people I’ve met while trying to get sober.
You’ve got this. They say the bored, lost and needy feeling goes away eventually.
Day 31 and counting!!!
Morning everyone ! 8 months sober today for me . I’ve hardly been on here this last 2 weeks as I’ve had a mentally busy time at work and have been exhausted by the time I’ve got home. Plus I’m looking at getting my own house with my partner and moving out of rented accommodation which is something I didn’t think we would be able to do financially but we had some great news that we could do, exciting times .
8 months is a good solid number I like that , I still work on it when I can , reading books still on quitting but mainly on how to build a new life which is then the other side of quitting- what do you then do with your time ??
But in the whole I’m really good , still give alcohol some thoughts but I’m confident that I would never take the time to go into the shop and buy a bottle of anything no matter how hard things get sometimes .
Hope everyone is well - spent the last hour reading through the threads and some amazing numbers and stories. Happy Friday
Nice to see you checking in Julie. Congratulations on your 8 months of freedom.
Good luck getting a new home.
Way to go Caroline.
Haha.
Just the chuckle I needed to end my day on thank you.
checking in for today.
yesterday i was frustrated and annoyed all day. I just must accepted that these days will come and go. But that’s wen the cravings kick in.
I had a good sleep so now I’m fine.
Yesterday I suddenly received a bottle of wine from an acquaintance. Taken from his holiday in Greece.
I don’t really know what to do with it, of course I’m not going to drink it. But a bottle of wine in my house is not a good idea.
Have a nice day my friends!
stay sober!
285 Days
Yes it’s Friday, week sped by, but looking forward to some relax time.
@Desire2ChangeToday so sorry to read this awful news my thoughts and prayers are with your mum and your family at this difficult time
@Charlie_C your holiday sounds perfect enjoy every moment
@Deadman wow great numbers
@Julied congratulations on 8 months sounds like exciting times are ahead for you💯
Wishing you all a Happy, strong Friday
A random act of kindness gift to a stranger or a gift to a friend or acquaintance…? or down the drain should it tempt you and make you crave more…
Congratulations!
Day 423
A little tired today, I put my bicycle parking ticket in the station wicket and got beeped at while there was a queue of tutting business people behind me, and had AV issues at work. Hope to relax a little this weekend.
Down the drain doesn’t feel right because it was a gift. I think I will give it to a friend he knows I struggle with my addiction no questions asked.
Day 17 checking in joined a meeting starts tomorrow nite time to start putting in some service feeling good will be having a productive weekend by cleaning the house going to gym and doing couple of meetings have a good day everyone all the best
