Today is day 3 and I’m grateful and feeling better and stronger. I stayed home today and rested and slept and ate some light foods. I’m going to log onto the 319 online meeting in a few and catch a meeting I hope you all had a good day and have a good night! 
Thanks for the support

- Coffee. Working weekend coming up. It’s OK. I’m OK. I’m sober and clean. Getting back on track with working my recovery one day at a time. It is work but man is it worth it! Have a good weekend all, or at least as good as you can. Clean and sober love from here where the tenth Amsterdam Light Festival is only on for a few hours a day because of Δ & Ο. & all the rest so I’ll have to make an effort to see it all. I will.

I decided that big “why” doesn’t matter for me, I am just an addict. The drugs and alcohol are no different to standing in a puddle of water and holding onto live wires. I don’t need to remember all the pain and all the details it’s really such a simple thing for me. I don’t drink because I can’t it ruins my life and the lives of everyone around me.
Why don’t you make something visual on one side what drugs and alcohol have given you.
On my board there would be pain, suffering, loneliness, lying, scars, anger, tears, my garage, filth etc etc etc.
And on the other what recovery has given you…
On mine there would be games, laughter, pictures of my family, sunsets, all the seasons I have witnessed, a clean house, all of you, my NA family… etc etc etc.
When it gets hard, dig deeper you are evolving. I love you.

Thanks. I am from overseas. And this to me looked like the most friendly platform. This community, several podcasts and a local talking group (similar to AA) are being very helpful for me. Grateful.

Lots of great friendly people here. We’re all just trying to not take that first drink. The most important one. Everyone is pretty helpful. If you got any questions just ask. Have a good read around. Lots of great topics. Join in when your comfortable.
