Good job on pushing through. I hate those fucking dealers. Message you trying to give you deals and acting like they are your friend or where yah been. Mother fucker I’ve been living… And if you die off there shit they won’t blink a eye, keep going and tell your hubby I’m proud of him too

Right?! Like come on… its funny cuz I was literally talking to my husband last night, wondering when they were going text about where we were lmao and today they did. Weird!! The big boss that runs that whole messed up operation told them (the drivers) long ago to treat us like gold and be on time and this n that cuz we spent so much $$. Now things are slow lmao not my problem lol they don’t care obviously. All the drivers owe $$ to the big boss anyway so I guess they are desperate. Again… ot my problem. Thanks for the support Mike! I will definitly tell him :slight_smile: u doing ok?

  1. Coffee. Friday early shift followed by a real weekend coming up. Had a mediocre day off after I learned therapy was cancelled yesterday. But picked myself up, did some chores, cooked a good meal. Just normal stuff. 959 Days ago I might very well have decided to start drinking before noon. Thanks god I don’t do that no more. Never again. Drinking is just stupid for folks like us.
    Have as good a Friday as you all can friends. Make it sober and clean. It helps so much. Love from Amsterdam where the tulips on sale helped cheer me up too.

    @Newlife5 60 Days Cindy! Yay! Congrats!
    @Dolse71 16 Months already Paul. Time flies. Big congrats.

Since my late teenage years and early 20s I have been drinking and drugging.

It was a great tool for me to cope with all of my feelings, building friendships, building relationships falling in love and dealing with anxiety. At least I thought it was a great tool. Now when I am growing older I realize that I have learned nothing and that all the skills I learned are useless in a sober life. It took me 20 years to learn those useless skills. How do I learn to build ‘’Real”’ friendship’s and relationships if I can only refer to the past? Why I cannot just rewire or reset my brain and start all over… Its seems all so pointless… to start coping with all those feelings and issues in my late 30s…

Of course I now it’s not pointless and I know why I am doing this but it doesn’t make it easier.

But this is just how I feel right now.

Not drinking alcohol, not putting that poison in my mouth is the easiest part, learning new copings skills is difficult, but building friendships and relationships sober seems impossible for me.

Today I will not drink, its not helping me it makes life worse. The best memories and the only friendships I still I have where made sober… years before I start drugging and drinking. I will hold on to this and this will light my path. I still have hope and courage to get true those dark days.

There are so many inspiration people out here who are showing me that it is possible to cope with
anxiety and daily life sober. Thank you for letting me be part of this community.

Today I will not drink, just for today.
