Wow can’t believe getting close to triple digits. So proud of myself. Each day I foucus on the moment… enjoying it alcohol and drug free. Changes of noticed so far increased mood and energy. More confident. Weight loss…due to yoga/lifting and healthy diet. Better relationship with my children… others. Finances in better condition re budgeting and all the money I’ve saved too not killing my self with poison. Business is cing slong…complted my yoga training. Up early…memory definitely better…laughing more deep down belly laughs with tears I always had such joy before becoming an addict. Focus has improved as well. More courageous…stepping out of my comfort zones.
Sustained sobriety has offered me the best medicine…ever! What I put my body through, drinking like I did…I was constantly fighting off the flu, or cold, or something. With out dumping alcohol into my system, my body fights these things better, and I seem to have stayed healthier. An added benifit of sobriety.
Had a day of people-pleasing, anxiety, and just being really tired of my own personality. Actually got a bit upset about it. I think some other things are in the background.
@SoberWalker I’ve only just clicked that you’re Claudia congratulations with your wedding so sorry to hear about your tattoo.
I totally understand how devastated you’re feeling but try not to think so far ahead… Just like so many things, try to take it ODAAT. Positive thinking, it’s going to be ok xx
@zzz hope the home remedies help and you’re feeling better soon
@Cherry_Kisses can you imagine how much messier life would be if we weren’t sober you’re doing amazing lovely! It’s great to have the support around us but ultimately the hard work is up to us so I hope you’re giving yourself a pat on the back also
@Julia welcome to the forum! Amazing bunch of people here with so much to give, I hope it helps you as much as it does me
@Lotusflower such an uplifting post, I’m so happy for you hearing all the positives you’re experiencing, being clean and sober rocks
@CATMANCAM you blow me away with your bravery, honesty and strength. A true inspiration
Happy Friday all! Got a couple inches of snow so that will make driving exciting this morning haha. Facing a challenge at work. However now sober I’m approaching it with a clear head. That means prayer and thought verses irrational fear and reckless action. I know whatever happens i am doing my best.
I’m so glad the wedding was everything you wanted! And I’m sorry to hear about the tattoo. It’s the 13 days of waiting that will be the hardest. Hang in there.
Day 1055. Roller coaster of a week. I feel like a different person. I’m enjoying stripping away all the unnecessary distractions from my life. Got rid of my tv. Quit the news and social media. Gonna ditch my smartphone in the not too distant future. Lots of good stuff happening, so I’m gonna focus in that and start moving away from staring into the abyss.
