Hope everyone has a nice sober evening!
Checking in, day 43.
Woke up with a new sense of determination and feeling optimistic. Idk if the meetings or my program are starting to finally stick but I feel fearless and ready to take on anything. Even my only remaining fear.
I have made up my mind.
I will do my best.
Iām just sorry itās taken me this long to even consider it.
Iām just fucking sorry for being so sorry all of the time.
Wooohoooo
Congrats on your 90 days clean!!!
So glad youāre doing better today, Tyler! Youāve been on my mind.
Way to go on your 30 days!!!
Yes thatās a good idea. I feel good every weekend I go through sober. I donāt have any problems getting intoxicated during the week: my problem is really the weekends: so every one I go through sober, I feel great. I guess the impatience comes from never getting to 100 days, I tried a few times and the most I did was around 60days. But every time I learn something new and feel better equipped for the next challenge. And anyway: getting intoxicated is not much of an option for me anymore because I get super paranoid and psychotic if I do drugs, and, get a migraine and sleepy with alcohol. I feel like my mind, body and soul has had more than enough and itās just not accenting it anymore so it reacts to these substances in the worst way possible, so itās just kinda happening naturally where I donāt feel obligated to do this but more like itās how I truly feel. Thanks for the tips
Working on another trip to Texas. Back home to Austin.
Got the pets stuff all pack today. So we donāt stress them out when we take them to the Kennel again tomorrow. Itās helped a little that we just did this a couple of weeks ago. But they are still not gonna like it. And neither am I. Then we donāt leave until Thursday.
First time in Austin, where I considered my home, sober. Iām confidently looking forward to the challenge. Iām really not too worried about drinking. Because I donāt do that shit anymore. And I think Iāll just have fun without my booze. And get thisā¦ I wonāt be hungover. Not even once
I got this. And I got yāall in my pocket.
Thanks yāall for helping me get to where I am today. These are the firsts I really look forward to.
We donāt have to live like that anymore!
Good job Keep it up champ
Wellā¦ this says it all Coming up to 3 days in a few hours! A good nightās rest & then we do it all again tomorrow.
1183 days alcohol free
You can do this. You are doing amazing!
Thank you SO much! Today gave me hope that I can overcome emotion and urges to use
Day 466
I dumped a liter of vodka down the drain yesterday! It gave me goosebumps. I feel like when we do something like that we are telling the world āAlcohol will never fucking win again!ā Fuck NO! Mwahaha. It was a gift that had been staring at me from my pantry for a few weeks now. Glad itās gone. I also told my fiancĆ© to get his fireball crap out of here. NO MORE ALCOHOL IN MY HOUSE! OMGā¦ we even got shots in these adult Halloween goodie bags! Anyway, I took care of the problem. I didnāt even realize it was a problem but I would literally think about that damn alcohol more than Iād like to admit. Just done thinking about it. Done playing the tape forward. Setting my boundaries. Maybe changing the course of history. Who knows!?
You can! You have the power to be anything you want to be. Iām cheering for you in my heart.
Love how self aware you are! That you were able to see and realize that you had been thinking of it more than u like. Thatās amazing skill right there! Really really proud of you for getting rid of it all
Congrats on your 22 months Eric!!!
This trip is just another experience to add to your belt of experiences sober. No sweat.
And the pets wellā¦I think they will be just fine too.
BOOM!!!
Good job, Love you.
Congrats on the 22 months and for being so strong in your sobriety! You learned you didnāt āgive upā anything but a hard timeā¦ the drinking to start with and the hangovers to end with and everything and anything surrounding itā¦ " We donāt have to live like that anymore" and do not even WANT to! Super proud of you! Have a great trip and enjoy your hometown and your friends.
this! Congrats my friend!
