@Freeyourmind I get this too and it has only been 3 months sober for me. A month ago I had more energy than I knew what to do with. I was getting up early and going to the gym and working out like a crazy man. Now I have little energy and have to force myself to go. Once I am there I get into it and have a good workout. I just seem to lack motivation and energy. Some mornings I too feel hungover even though I am abstaining from alcohol. I wonder if it is from ice cream. That is my new treat in the eveningā¦
Checking in on Saturday morning, sober and grateful for this opportunity to live life.
@zzz Glad to see you keep fighting
Day 217
Lovely day today. Went to a very local play ground / theme park. Lots of play equipment and some little rides which thrilled my daughter, and it was enough in the countryside to find a mantis which pleased my son.
This evening I am doing a study zoom. It is a book, and I am actually ahead of the reading, because I have time and energy in the evenings.
Day 44. Some days are better than others. Iām worried today is going to be a rough day. I woke up at 4AM feeling miserable. Iām trying to figure out how to make it through an entire miserable day alone since Iām off work today. What a bunch of bull malarkeyā¦. SMH
Checking in. Day 25
Day 10. Iāve got my nieceās bday party tonight, and Iām already rehearsing my āno thank yousā Iāll come armed with my seltzer water. This group isnāt a big trigger for me, but they are definitely used to me being āthe life of the partyā. Iāve got this.
You can do it!
Hey all, checking in on day 475ā¦I hope everyone has a good one!

Celebrating my soberversary with friends. Thank you TS tribe! This place is an important part of my sobriety.
Thank you everyone for the congratulations and compliments.
ODAAT.
Checking day 3, much love
Phew, doing much better today! Actually having a really lovely day with no grand plans so I dove into tending to my houseplants and starting on garden phase-out. These are the days I need to remember and appreciate when Iām having a rough time. It does, indeed, pass. I am taking every opportunity to enjoy this pain free time. I am sending out love and sober energy to you all.
Just checking in. Day 26
Just checking in 3 months & 26 days bring it on keep this thing going
Happy 367.
Checking in day 113. Nice Saturday. My SOās uncle was in a nearby town, so we had a quick visit and hit some art galleries she wanted to check out on the way back. Then I took a desk over to a colleagueās apartment who needed to borrow one. You know. Wild and crazy times.
Might get on the old Warhorse (thanks for the name idea @Mno ) and get a nice long bike ride tomorrow, if it doesnāt pour rain. Happy Sobriety, everyone!
Made it through today thanks to a friend whom I confided in. We celebrated my sons 16th birthday and then he left to go to a friends and it was just a bunch of adults who were drinking and hanging out. I wanted a beer so badly, but my friend straight told me no. āJust remember your whyā she said to me. So here I am day 5 in the books. Most of my friends are ānappingā at 7 PM and Iām here to make sure I get through the rest of the night sober. Sigh one day at a time.
I had to shout out on this! I grew up in Mendocino, CA right next to Fort Bragg! Did you get to see glass beach when you were there?
Way to go Maggie! First weekend day/night

You look wonderful and have a gorgeous sparkle! Glad you are celebrating with your friends! Congrats on each day! @Olivia
