Great job on 27 days. I still get pissed off that I canāt be one of those moderate normal drinkers but just came to the realization that I canāt. Keep focusing on the negatives. I actually used the journal on here the first couple weeks so I could look back and remember how sick I was. Maybe try that. I was to the point where I was waking up in the middle of the night and slamming beers just to get back to sleep. Throwing up every morning all the way to work. Than on weekends waking up having like a half cup of coffee and just starting drinking heavy for the rest of it. I donāt wanna go back to that again. Try and remember that kind of shit.

Day 6
Feeling good this morning! Am at work right now until 4pm. My client today returned from an AWOL around 6pm last night. She hasnāt slept or eaten since. Alot of delusions and self talk and alot of pacing. She has a tendency to smoke meth when she leaves the home. I have been doing what I can to help her and encouraging food, water, and rest. Itās awful to see someone suffering due to using drugs. It bothers me to see that hold that drugs has on people. Literally I mustāve saw 7 people using drugs while on my way to work. 1 young girl nodding off and 1 person passed out on the floor of the c-train station (his lower back was exposed and u could see wounds and scars all over his back). It amazes me that for the longest time, I would never have the same empathy for myself while using as I do for others. I couldnāt see the damage it was causing in my life until it was FAR too late. My distaste for drugs is high right now. I hate them and they completely disgust me. I did my readings and prayer and I will do my best to help my client. Hope everyone has an amazing addiction free staurday

Heey, thanks! I never been far away, lurking around everyday. Been so frustrated with my self. 77days AF, drank for 1 day, 40days AF, drank for a day and so on. But 30days today not giving up, I have to belive this time is the one. I have been working hard to change, not only not to pick up. But its been hard times last couple of months, since october, with all my pains. The pains are taking everything from me, and its making me depressed and full of anxiety. Im sure something really bad is wrong with me. And family stuff 
But Im still here, still breathing.
Hope everything is good with you, I read your post everyday, and I get everything its not always easy, but you are such a inspiration

Aww. That makes me feel special. 
Thank you for you lovely compliment.
Iām glad you keep fighting the good fight. As long as weāre alive and fighting it, we have a chance. Living with pain can make it all that much harder. Living with pain really sucks. And I know how tiring it can be too.
ODAAT.

Checking in day 13 - went to a meeting, then worked out, then saw a friend for lunch. Quite a good day but I just feel pretty low. I feel sad and kins of lonely, Iv stopped doing a lot of my usual social activities as they involve drinking. People always talk about how good it feels when you stop using/drinking but tbh i feel the opposite. Not sure exactly why. I know when I quit vaping (used to vape like 24/7 after I quit smoking) I felt pretty depressed for a few months, it did pass and things seemed normal again. Iām hoping thatās the same with this - anyone else felt this way at the beginning of getting sober?

Hi Kady! Yes, I can totally relate. I have lost or ended some friendships once I quit, because I used to hang out with friends that drank a lot! But right now, I prefer it this way, even though I feel lonely many times. I live on my own, and my social life is currently almost non-existing.
