Omg, hope she is ok. Sending strength. Glad u stayed sober.
Oh wow, that must be scary. Really hope she is OK, poor thing. Well done on staying sober.
Hey all, checking in on day 628. I hope everybody has a good one!
Day 107
Most refreshed night of sleep of 2022 and itās not close. Sometimes I take a magnesium supplement (gummies) before bed to help me sleep, decided to take the powder form of the same supplement and had the most vivid dreams. Almost woke up laughing. Which means i probably should take it every night if i can because wow, i actually feel refreshed. It also helps my oldest didnāt climb into our bed this morning, so that was cool too. Alrighty, everyone have a great day today!
@Mno Congrats on 1000! Thatās fantastic!
@Fury & @Miranda I read somewhere that counting days can be counting days can be counterproductive because ācreates unnecessary stress and fosters a sense of competitionā. I personally do better if I donāt think too much about my days, but in the back of my mind, the counter is still running.
Anyone else have that dream that youāre still awake and you wake up more tired than you already were? Iām glad itās Friday!
You are an inspiration.
You are amazing.
You fucking rock!
Congratulations on 1000 days of freedom.
Day 141 I think, just saying hey and hope everyone has a good dayā¦. Much love
Checking in day 5. Off to get some sober sleep and then itās my last shift for the week. Ordered some decaf teas for the weekend and a huge blanket sweatshirt. I will do that and watch movies and cook this weekend. Happy Friday all
Day 165.
Missed yesterdayās check in š®āšØ
It was a strange and almost non existent day.
Not good, not horrible, just a day.
I woke up and performed my routine, started feeling some anxiety so I thought why not go to lunch at the mall and somewhere between eating and shopping, I started to feel off. Idk what it was, a mixture of illness, fatigue and sadness. I decided it was best to go home and isolate incase it was covid,(itās not btw) just to be safe. I laid down after getting home, said a prayer before meditation and eventually drifted off.
Today, I woke up refreshed and feeling so alive(took a 2nd covid test too) and singing, just full of joy.
The time I woke up was a bit early but it will definitely give the much desired tweak in my sleep schedule.
Overall, I feel okay. Better than okay.
And thats such a motherfucking blessing < 3
This month marks some huge milestones. And somehow, I donāt feel shaken.
I feel formidable, I feel determined, I feel alive.
Half a year since my seperation from the love of my life, in a week.
Half a year since my suicide, not too long after that.
Half a year since I stopped poisoning my life with alcohol.
This life is mine, I made it mine.
I might adore, want, miss and love you for the rest of my days.
Despite the toxic hurt that scars me, I will always miss us.
But this life? This life is now mine.
I am okay living my life alone, afterall I have my precious daughter to share it with.
I hope you are okay, I am.
I can honestly say that I am.
I can only pray that you are okay, and sober too.
Very encouraging post. Iām happy to hear things are going so well today.
Iām almost at day five!!! Iām sooooo excited.
Woke up way too early though and have a headacheā¦ Slightly nauseous. Nothing unmanageable. I think Iām pretty lucky not too be experincing worse symptoms.(a little anxious tooā¦ But Iām going to try a meditation!)
What a great share Menno actually got a lump in my throat, what a journey, so incredibly happy and proud for youā¦ congratulations on your 1000 days
Checking in on day 300! Itās not an āactualā milestone but itās a cool number to hit. Sitting at home at the moment waiting on my 2nd round of phone interviews for a position Iām hopeful for. Fingers crossed . Iāll check back in later on after I get some feedback. Have a great day everyone.
432 days
Since I gave up writing to do lists on Monday (thought i was putting too much pressure on myself), i have missed a dentist appointment, 1 work meeting (yikes) , missed paying a bill and my house is a shambles, so now recognise I need lists but shorter ones. I tried
Off to the beach tomorrow I need it . Had a few romancing alcohol thoughts, thankfully I was able to force them from my head.
Wishing you all a good, strong 24 hours odaat
Wow, 300 days congratulations , all your hard work is paying off well done!
Good morning all Kat here checking in day 212 or 7 months! Woohoo!
Feeling happy and proud that I am clean and sober and want to stay this way always. Except when in a major accident or dying, then I want all the good drugs. Thatās a reservation I know, will work on it.
Work until 2 then heading out with my kids to Niagara Falls for a family vacation.
Love and sobriety!
Kat
Going to the DR today to find out whatās going on inside my body. Try to figure out how much damage I have done to myself, why my hair is falling out in droves, etc.
I probably wonāt get answers today but Iām scared and nervous of the entire thing, going, finding out, and staying hopeful I havenāt done too much damage.
Ugh, Iām gonna puke. Lol
Good for you going to the doctor.
The body itself is an amazing healer.
Iām so sorry to hear about your granddaughter how is she doing? How are YOU doing? Is she OK?
Omg yay Kat!!! 7 months is huge!!! Really proud of you! Could you imagine 7 months ago when u 1st started this journey, ud be where u are today? I canāt wait till I get to 1 month! And then eventually to 7 months and beyond! 24 hours at a time
