Day 5. Started the day off good, woke up drank my healthy stuff and worked out then worked on some embroidery and the normal stuff like taking care of the fur babies. Had some cravings in the evening, some thoughts pop in my head but I successfully distracted myself, and opened this app to read some stuff. Kept telling myself to just focus on today and remember how good I felt all day and how I donāt want to lose that feeling. Iām all alone right now since my man is at work about two hours away so Iām really holding myself accountable, itās so easy to drink when youāre all alone and you know nobody would find out. Ugh, but I pushed through, in bed now just scrolling on here and getting inspired by each and every one of you and your journeys

Good morning from Europe. Let me share with you three months of sobriety.
I have had, of course, ups and downs but life, in general terms, is absolutely better.
I have also understood that true problem is the booze, rest are merely circumstances.
Letās continue in the path of no alcohol!

Finally got some self care in. Tried something abit different tonight. Normally my evening shower is very hot. And when I get super intense emotions or anxious or overwhelmed during the day, I usually splash cold water on my face and put my hands under running cold water. Well today I decided to start my shower off hot for some time, and then slowly bit by bit turned it the water colder n colder. It was very different! Really seemed to ground myself. I also noticed how the temp of water effects my mood. Hot water has always been apart of my past history with working in the sex trade. Whether it was to ābe rid ofā how I felt or as a form of self punishment to myself idk. But when I ran warm water tonight, it was very self accepting and I felt self love and happiness. It was sooo nice to experience!! And the cold water just grounded me 
very neat exper8ence tonight! Just thot id share goodnight all!

Thatās what our addict tells us. The shame I would feel when I snuck booze made ānobody finding outā worthless because I knew.
I am super proud of you, those first 10 days arenāt easy. Coming here to get inspiration is how I got through mine too.
Hope you have a great sleep tonight.

- Coffee. Slept a lot better than last night. Wind and rain outside do have a good effect on the relaxation I feel in bed and the rest I get. As long as Iām in a solid house with a good foundation and no leaks that is. I am.
Iām also slowly building a similar solid foundation for my life. Itās called recovery and we work it one day at a time. Therapy group today. Iāll get out a stop early on the train there and take a little walk, the wind is slacking a bit and I want some fresh air.
Iām sober and clean and I hope you all will be too today. Itās the first thing we need to live a happier healthier better live. Have as good a day as you all can friends. Love from Amsterdam and Mackay ID. Weather made me think of a couple of magical days spent there in 2017.

I love that analogy of the house, and feel the same when tucked up in bed.
That photo is stunning, looks almost photo shopped. I canāt imagine living with that as your backdrop!

Day 12, and I am feeling a lot more positive today. Think going back to work has been good for me, lots of distractions. The evening cravings are still bad, but it only seems to be a 2 hour window I have to survive and then I can enjoy the couple of hours before bed. I am actually staying up later as not drinking to sleep, and then getting better quality of sleep.
So good to see everyoneās milestones. Hope everyone has a great day!

Didnāt sleep so wel. The past few days weāre having heavy wind and rain over hereā¦ made me restless last night.
Heavy winds are forecasted for today all the way to saturday. So Iāll be cosy inside with a guitar iny my hands!
And going to work! Late shift this week. Trying to make the best of it.
Had a therapy session earlier this morning. We talked about my alcohol usage of late as well. Sheās looking into some support groups for me. I thinks that will be a good thing for me to do on top of this forum and the app. I am a little nervous about it thoughā¦ never done something like that before.
Anyway. Iāll be okay. Iām sober today.
Have a great one!
