Tonight will be day 20 of no self harm.
Insane 60mph wind since last night and it won’t stop until tomorrow. Nothing is damaged, but my dog is afraid of the wind howling so I’ve been up with her since 4am. The wind has also messed with my allergies so now I have a mix of a sinus headache and a migraine. Super tired, other than that I’m okay. Just trying to relax and prevent my migraine from getting worse. Hopefully I will fall asleep quickly tonight.

Hello everyone, checking in as I am off to bed (Day 44 done). It has just be a lovely day, full of positivity and promise. I was a good employee, wife and Mum today. I love this new energy not drinking gives me. Even if I am tired I seem able to notice and appreciate things more, have the energy to make that extra effort. I am very lucky at this moment in time that everything seems to be ok.
I hope everyone who is struggling finds a way through, and you find some peace.
Congratulations to everyone hitting those milestones.

Sometimes you really do need a break and I think it’s so important to listen to your body.

So at first I was going to start by saying " I just had one of those days where nothing seemed to go my way" I was going to list all the negative things that happened but then I started trying to find the positive.
Yes, I hit every single red light and got stuck in the work worse traffic but at least I still made it to where I was going and there were no accidents and I wasn’t that late.
Yes, there was a huge issue trying to order these shoes that I need in a specific size and it took FOREVER, but at least they were nice about it and at least the shoes can actually be ordered and I won’t have to wait too long for them.
Yes, they were out of three of the main things that I needed when I went to the grocery store but I found alternatives and I’m looking forward to going home and making my dinner
Yes , I dropped my wallet (twice!) and all of my gazillion cards slid along the grocery store floor (twice!) but at least I didn’t lose my wallet.
So all in all I had a pretty lucky day.
Still kind of feel like going home and pouring a drink but I won’t… At least not tonight

At a full 2 weeks now. I’ve felt a little sick all day to my stomach. Hoping it was just something I ate. I had 3 extra kids this evening so I made them pancakes and bacon. Still no word on my son being released from the behavioral hospital, but we found out today that our insurance is changing April 1, so it may not matter. My wife in Texas is waiting on standby. A month ago I would have handled this much differently.

Day 600
Cold gloomy rainy spring day decided to act like a child and hula hooped barefoot in the rain this morning
Snow has finally melted enough that I can open the gate into the garden!
Just got off work now - Tomorrow starts my off week

I don’t listen to music much, I’m sitting here and a song comes on I’m barely listening to it but this part it sung I heard every word like not even on purpose and thought shit dude this is literally me to a t, sitting in self pitty believeing all these lies, suffocating my self with self hate. It’s time to own what I’m doing in life and start believing myself. This was my first time ever hearing this song. It’s called search my nf if anyone wants to hear it.
, the sales can rise
Doesn’t mean much though when your health declines
See, we’ve all got somethin’ that we trapped inside
That we try to suffocate, you know, hopin’ it dies
Try to hold it underwater but it always survives
Then it comes up out of nowhere like an evil surprise
Then it hovers over you to tell you millions of lies
You don’t relate to that? Must not be as crazy as I am
The point I’m makin’ is the mind is a powerful place
And what you feed it can affect you in a powerful way
It’s pretty cool, right? Yeah, but it’s not always safe
Just hang with me, this’ll only take a moment, okay?
Just think about it for a second, if you look at your face
Every day when you get up and think you’ll never be great
You’ll never be great, not because you’re not, but the hate
Will always find a way to cut you up and murder your faith
