Congratulations! Verry wel done!
Checking in for today. I had a good sleep and feeling better again. Yesterday was a tough day. Lots of anxiety en cravings. At noon I felt like have a Hangover this was really weird
I tried to calm my self during work and this helped. When I come home I cooked a good meal and did some stuff in and around the house and did some self study. It helpt to relax and in the evening I felt better.
My mind was trying to trick me and it’s gone try to trick me again today. But I wil stay strong… I have the upper hand!
Today I stay sober again!
Have a nice day!
Congratulations!
When it says that they will be “fulfilled among us-sometimes quickly, sometimes slowly” it means that the AA Promises will happen , but the time frame in which they present themselves are different for everyone. The AA promises will always materialize if the alcoholic works for them. Thank you All,
- My weekend’s over. A bit too soon but OK. I honestly can’t imagine now how I used to get up at 6 am after a Friday night bender in the bar. Like I did every Friday. And a couple of days more each week. So glad to be sober and clean. Never again.
Yesterday the weather turned out really beautiful so I took my bike out for a ride instead of doing a spinning class. Much better. Shoulder still isn’t perfect but it made do. Considering the circumstances I feel pretty good. Have as good a weekend as you all can friends. Make it sober and clean. It makes all the difference. Love from the real Brooklyn Bridge.
@Dona Congrats on your milestone, awesome work!
@ShadowFax Gefeliciteerd!
Congratulations on your 60 days AF Dona!!
So, I didn’t realize today was actually day 9. Anyways what a day, it was good for the most part, my step dad got home and started drinking…now I’m chillen drawing, yes my girls are running around kind of being crazy I kind of let them do they’re thing I’m not gonna chase them all night, autumn was being wild they were in and out of my moms and his room. I figured they were ok, but I’m just minding my business drawing and I can hear my m mom saying something to the girls and my step dad said “ yeah like they’re father is gonna do anything, he just sits around doing fucking nothing every day” he didn’t think I heard him and I got up and just went yeah I fucking heard that and grabbed my girls and had them come in with me. It just hurt, honestly yeah there is some truth to what he said, but I keep the house clean I do what I can bc shit is hard, I actually kept my cool pretty good but I cried when i came upstairs. Is what it is I guess much love
Congrats on 9 days MIke. This shit is really hard. You know that. Great job keeping your cool. You’re a great dad and a really good person. Seems to me like you did the next right thing. And tomorrow you can do the next right thing again.
Big hug for ya buddy. Glad you shared.
Congratulations on your 60 days! Awesome! Keep up the good work!

Work body clock woke me up at 6, but appreciating having a coffee in bed and a read. Walk my dog soon before park gets busy. Just love leisurely days no pressure to do anything. No calculating when to take the first drop and the decline of day takes over. Being sober has made me appreciate each day despite the shit that some of those days can bring now when I have a good day I know it
@Dansig congrats on your 5 months
@CATMANCAM well done on your 30 days, keep going doing what you doing, I am really rooting for you
@Fireweed appreciate reading posts on here with long term sober time, hearing how it’s changed and educated them, inspiring and reinforces the “umph” to keep fighting . Congratulations on 3 years - awsome
@Tomek don’t ever give up sure things will work themselves out take care
@MolotovMoxie smashing 50 days and @Dona on your 60 well done
@Mno fabulous photo as always, I often reflect and wonder how I survived my life of excess, but I/we did and always try to appreciate that.
@anon53116147 well done for keeping calm, have a better day today
Happy Saturday to you all
Day 18 checking in
Things have been strange lately. I am adjusting to the rhythms of life I guess. I am worried about how relapse can just sneak up from the shadows of normal life. I have been crazy busy lately and have not had much time to myself.
Day 120 af. I am up with fresh coffee early on a foggy Saturday morning. There is a steady light rain. It’s kind of nice. Hope you are all well.
Congratulations on 60 days Dona!!! It is so amazing to find you here knowing that at some time in the past we drank, rather abused, the drink together. Nothing as great as making new friends in sobriety but even more amazing is getting sober and well with friends who are suffering from the same disease.
Congratulations to all on the various milestones!
I am super grateful to be 14 days old in sobriety.
“God is doing for us what we could not do for ourselves”
You are knocking it out of the park, friend. I think 2 weeks is a big milestone. Keep doing what you are doing.
Hey all, checking in on day 482. I hope everyone has a great start to their weekend!
