Congratulations on your ten days Mae!!
Great job!!
Oh yes and my son lol I go inā¦he finds it uncomfortable at times but oh well I tell himā¦better from me than the streets especially primarily being a single mom.
xo
There she is!!!
30 freakin days Dana!!!
Way to go girl!! You just made my day š„²
This journey we are on together fills me with life, every day. When I came into recovery I couldnāt feel anything and then that started changing. I began being able to feel but not knowing exactly what it was I was feeling. Little do you know that over the last two years you have been helping me learn to associate sensations in my body, to feelings and then name those feelings and attach words to them. Little do you know that over the last two years as I have sat in another province, in the same country, I have been praying and rooting for you every day. All those times you would disappear on us I would wish you the strength to come back, I have always had faith in you. Look at youā¦ ā¦ youāre doing it.
Congrats on your 30 consecutive-fucking-days of clean time!
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO MOFOS!!!
So proud of you.
Day 12.
Iām so tired, no big text today.
Another co-worker got sick I hate this pandemicā¦
Good youāre sober.
My sister and both nieces have it. Not too bad though since they are all vaxxed up. But I think we got to get use to it. .
Congratulations on 12 days. Glad youāre here.
Oh wowā¦
I donāt know what to sayā¦ I didnāt know that. Sometimes I donāt even know what I say to people and sometimes I question if I say too much or not enough. I love you my friend. I really do. U are an incredible woman and have been around and supported me during some of my toughest times and where there to support me during the mornings after some of my past relapses when Iād be so down on myself and mentally and emotionally not well.I Thank you!!! Really
And thank you for my key tag. I havenāt gotten one of these in ages! It brought a real big smile to my face. Thank u for thinking of me and wishing me the best all those times Iād disappear. That means alot!! Thanks @Its_me_Stella Luv u!
Haha Eric!!! Love the dancing guy there!!! U are also another person who has been there for me since day 1. I love u too my friend! Thanks for having my back and supporting me no matter what!! Hugs
Checking in another sober day !
Huge congratulations to you on your 30 days.
You have the power
Checking in, day 495 no alcohol, day 5 no cigarettes. I keep falling asleep during the day and go to bed early. Better than smoking outside in the cold for sure. Maybe itās a defense mechanism or maybe Iām just tired. Iām still getting overwhelmed by a lot of things and feel lost, but I do hope it gets better little by little.
Iām sorry to hear about your son. So hard to see our kids struggle. I wish you all the best and hope you get the answers, help and support you both need. I donāt know a lot about TMS therapy, but I hope it can help good luck to you bothā:pray:
Awe thank u
@Becsta I hope things go well for your eldest son with the TMS Iāve just had a read about it and itās definitely something I would consider, thanks for sharing. I also had the best chats with the looked after teenagers I worked with when in the car
@ShadowFax thank you so much, Iām proud of you too
@LeeHawk thank you, that is reassuring. Iām hoping once I have seen and spoken to him for the first time since the ābreak-upā, that my mind will stop making a massive thing about it, because logically, I know it wasnāt on majorly bad terms, his way just was having a detrimental effect on me, and he called my feelings bs and said that me disclosing that I felt suicidal āwas not idealā. It does make me a bit sick that I trusted him with my feelings, and some of the things I disclosed, but ultimately I didnāt feel supported so it wasnāt going to work out. Iām sorry you had to change sponsors too, itās comforting to know that it does happen sometimes, did it make you weary of committing to a new one? Thatās what Iām struggling with atm, a fear of it all going wrong again and ruining a potential friendship
@Butterflymoonwoman Aww thank you Congrats on your month, you have put a lot of work into this and Iām really proud of you
@Lorelai thank you
@GOKU2019 congrats on 5 months
@paper_boats sending strength
@Caite1025 congrats on double digits
@Tomek I struggled with fatigue one of the times I quit nicotine too, I will be doing so again in the next couple of days, so thank you for the reminder. I hope it gets better soon for you too, sending strength
583 days no alcohol.
48 days no cocaine.
25 days no binge-eating.
Had my hand tattoo consultation today, the artist doesnāt want to do it how I wanted it, even though I tried to insist twice. Iāve msged him since the consultation to ask for a photo of the design once heās had chance to do one, so that I can visualize it in my mind how itās going to look if he does it his way, I do trust him, heās been doing my tattoos since 2008, but I had a very clear image of what I wanted. Iāve also sent him another idea to consider if he thinks it would work better with the colours I want. I am also going to get another tattoo on the back of my neck on the same day, both are booked for the 26th as he had a cancellation, so not long to wait While I was at the shop I also got both of my eyebrows pierced. I will stop with the face piercings now, I have 7 in total.
Felt a little unsteady this afternoon, didnāt know what to do with myself, and I was experiencing suicidal ideation, I managed to make myself nap for 45mins and have felt loads better since, I had been awake since 4am, whereas usually I go back to sleep after Iāve taken my morning meds, so on this occasion I think it was just tiredness.
I have been struggling with strong binge urges since my Testosterone shot on Friday, but have managed to stay strong so far.
My friend who has been in hospital is now home on bed rest, whilst he awaitis his MRI and lumbar puncture results to be reviewed by the specialist neurology hospital, so I will be visiting him tomorrow.
Then Friday is therapy day and Iām looking forward to that.
I think the fatigue is part of withdrawal. Iām sure it will get better! Youāre doing great!!
That is soooo awesome! Congratulations on your 1 month!!!
Im going home soon
I want to smoke so bad
It would be easy to
There is a pile of roaches my roommate wont touch and justā¦
It would be easy
Im thinking about doing other things like anything other than drink
But thats a lpt
I feel ok, but finding myself scrolling here latelyā¦kinda checkin in, but not reallyā¦Glad you peeps are here.
You know youāll feel worse if you do. Think of all the other times you made it past a craving. Every time you do you get stronger. Thereās got to be something else you can do, just for this moment. Go for a walk? Get out of the house if you can. Make a tea, read a book, do a puzzleā¦ Scroll through the memesā¦ Just get past this moment. You canā¤ļø let us know how you areā¦
Love that reading,thank You š«
