I feel sorry for You.

Yes but I am not talking about events, but about coincidences, and why I have problems with it. It is something that happened to me, and not many have similar expiriences. I am blessed I don’t have that anymore. But those flashbacks are something I am still afraid.

It just sometimes I feel like I am living in simulation, and every time I got signals of it I try to run away from it.

Thank You. Havent heard of any of it :open_mouth: I need to look around if we have any of those. I think You are right, this is something I really need and might help a lot.

@JennyH Yay!!! 1 month :slight_smile: this is a huge deal :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:

@Grumpybeard Congratulations on your 6 months Ryan!! Huge accomplishment

@DTC52 Congratulations Dan on 1 week!! Its a crazy process learning who we are and finding out what we like and don’t like now that we are in recovery. I remember back in 1 of my day treatment programs for women being asked what my fav color was, fav flower, fav smells etc. I was around 28 or so and I couldn’t answer any of those back then. Literally from the age of 15/16 my life revolved around drugs. My fav color was orange… now it’s lime green, fav flower are lilacs, and my fav smells are campfire, lavender, and the woods. Keep on the journey of self discovery and enjoy the process!

@anon53116147 Hope ur day is going amazing my friend :relaxed:

@SoberGuyUSA I am always inspired by your clean time number! Everytime I see it :slight_smile:

Morning check in
Day20

Hit the 20 day milestone :star_struck:
Feels good to be waking up clean and sober, especially since hubby was hinting at it last night. Found out (after he was wanting to get drugs) that he only had $140 left from his paycheque to last him for 1.5 weeks for smokes and groceries. We paid our bills and did eat out but the fact that he was wanting to buy drugs with money that we needed for food and his smokes, ya… that pissed me off. To see tho how my mind has changed with regards to money and using it wisely, and also how my thinking has changed with regards to drugs is incredible! I used to manipulate our money to get drugs. And then basically keep the bare minimum for what he we needed to barely survive (literally). And then borrow money (which is why we are in so much debt), hit up food hampers, buy cheap stuff at the dollarstore (which I still do now, but I do it by choice… instead of not having a choice back then), even stealing food (I’ll be honest here), and stealing toilet paper from the public washroom downstairs in our building (again being honest here). When I think back… I am not proud of the things I did… whether it be from turning tricks way back when to support my habit and survive… to as of a month ago stealing TP and food and borrowing money. It’s a shameful thing being 37 years old and not being able to buy effin toiletries :confounded: Anyway, these “little” things are amazing pieces of motivation for me now. Just to see how good my life is c&s (Clean and sober). I feel empowered being able to take care of everyday responsibilities! It actually is getting so much easier to say no and to push those urges away. Idk. I’m moving forward baby! This time I’m not giving in. Focusing on literally the 24 hours ahead!

alright. in a way I meet this Christian guy who after talking a while e started to talk that there is no coincidence after all when you are in a right way…

man, some big changes are in my way that I guess I have no other way to overcome it or run away from it, but just accept it.

I afraid of it of course. I am not pretending, many strange things had I overcomed, many things I know, but still I as more you know, you understand that you know nothing.

Really proud of u Mike for heading out into nature! This may be exactly what u need to just ground urself abit and change/adjust whatever u think may need it. Nature is honestly my go to when I’m out of sorts. I literally just sit and watch the birds, listen to the sounds around me, breathe deeply. I really hope u get something out of ur walk today :slight_smile: Enjoy ur day Mike!
