Exhausted. Falling apart. Can’t stop crying, and if I do, it just starts all over again. I know what’s wrong but there’s nothing I can do.

I’m done pretending and trying to ‘fake it till you make it’ (that’s just utter BS). I just don’t give a flying fuck.

Hugs, you. I don’t know what to say. If u don’t give a fuck, don’t. It is ok to be out of fucks sometimes. Be gentle with yourself, and save your energy for what is most important.

  1. Today is my daughters 19th Birthday and we’re going to my parents to celebrate. I feel so proud that I am sober and able to celebrate these times with my kids. My daughter has been my rock through so many difficult times and she always voices how proud she is of me. I unfortunately put my kids through so much during my addiction and I’m so grateful they were so very forgiving of all of it. For those of you struggling just know that picking back up only leads to things getting worse. I knows it’s hard on bad days but remember you are worthy of sobriety and no matter how bad your day is your doing an amazing job getting through everyday!

Day 425
Bloody aa meeting drama bringing up all kinds of uncomfortable feelings. Misunderstandings and hurt feelings are human, and so will happen even in aa, but I just want quiet space to share. And my people-pleasing, codependency totally came out even though it is entirely not my problem.

Sending big hugs, or just a “sitting next to you in solidarity,” since hugs aren’t always a fix. I am sorry you’re feeling shit…it can really be tough to be human at times. Try to breathe and remember that this will pass, hopefully sooner than not.

Day 13. Knocking out homework and housework. I’m honestly struggling more with my dietary restrictions than I am with not drinking. It’s interesting to observe my bodies cravings and wonder what leads to one being more intense than another. Have a wonderful Sunday everyone.
