Thank you 
Yes that makes sense. Learning to be in my own company has been a big thing for me. Finding self worth rather than relying on external relationships, however superficial, for validation. It’s been a journey! And still got some work to do. But getting there slowly but surely.
Day 59. Checking in, another day. I hope something gets better soon. Anything.
Hey Kevin! Thank u so much!!! 
I also have this. I don’t often organise things because I think people won’t come or come out of obligation. I even worry about the kids bday parties via proxy.

Coffee. I like our Zomertijd (what you English speaking folks call Daylight Saving Time). Love the long summer nights it brings. Just not this morning as I had to get up after a night that was an hour shorter as usual. And got to work an hour early too.
But I’ll survive. I’m sober and clean. And tonight I’ll have no problem going to bed an hour earlier. For now I have to hurry a bit. Have as good a day as you all can friends. Make it clean and sober because else nothing will come of it. Love from Amsterdam.
Congratulations @Seb on Day 80 
Happy Mother’s day to those in Britain. I am very lucky to have woken up with 7 weeks sobriety and starting Day 50. Lots of cuddles and love which is wonderful. I struggled really hard yesterday with the cravings and could feel the “moderation” voice starting, ready for my birthday and our holiday next week. Think I am going to have to be on my guard. I am ok atm, but can’t take that for granted.
Day 187 checking in 
962 days.
I definately have a love-hate relationship with the last part of the 4th step : relationships and sex.
Have been avoiding it for over two years now 
Yeah I can totally relate to that! It’s one mad journey this isn’t it lol, day 85 for me after 12 years of abusing myself. But like you say, we’ll get there slowly 
keep going mate! 
Thank you 
Oh that’s weird. Yes I know it does say that but in our NA groups they specifically say meds prescribed by a psychiatrist or medical person is totally ok. I guess it just depends from group to group. I’m.not giving up my mood stabilizer or HRT for anybody.
In my recovery I have developed quite a liking for Ceylon tea but never have more than 4 a day. I don’t do nicotine and I take Disprin for a headache.
Yes we just have to be cautious. Lots of love to you.
Wow that is incredible. The way you managed to get that detail and texture on the wings is phenomenal!! It doesn’t even look like water colour. Well done, very lovely.
Day 120 Sober
4 months dry, I can’t remember when the last time I consciously thought about having a drink. I know tougher times are ahead but I’m riding this wave as long as I can.
Went and reserved a new addition to our family yesterday, pick him up in 3.5 weeks.
Happy Mother’s Day to all the mums out there!
Much love to you all!
Massive thanks to someone who I can honestly say is my closest friend and biggest supporter on here @Twizzlers. Love you to bits lovely lady 
Day 593
Kids are back from camp, tired but full of tales from the weekend. They were extremely excited to see the cat. The cat less so.
Hey everyone, checking in on day 651! I hope everybody has a good one today 
Today is day 7…. Counting my week when I wake up tomorrow.
Yesterday I was faced with a few challenges. Lunch at a sports bar after my sons baseball practice. No urge, but unsettling watching how much alcohol is consumed!!
Then play time with the neighbors and kids, in which all the parents were drinking. An incident with the kids happened and it got blown out of proportion by the parents drinking. I’m so glad I was clear headed, even though the drinking parents didn’t notice, I noticed…. I was in control.
More dreams about drinking last night. They are always centered around work drinking. I have some recent trauma from work drinking at Christmas. I got too drunk at a holiday party…. Wasn’t black out, but slurring. My coworker/cofounder of our company got in an Uber with me to take me back to the hotel and tried his way with me twice in the car.
I’m left with the guilt, even tho I KNOW I stopped his attempts, I’m angry that the details are fuzzy. I’m angry that I was seem as a person to take advantage of. I’m angry that when I confided in a female colleague she told me that “he would never do that cause he’s never hit on her” and to not raise it to management… so it haunts my dream every night that I’m out of control at work and embarrassing myself.
But, here I am day 7!!! Off to yoga this morning and taking my son to a skate park, even though it’s freeeeeezing out today!
Happy Sunday. Happy healthy, healing day friends! 
Happy Sober Sunday all!
I am glad you all are here. We can do this! ODAAT!
Serene and Strong 24 all!
Morning all. Checking in on day 219. Have a great safe day everyone.
