I always feel personally rejected when people don’t come to things I organise. Even though I can rationalise it and understand it’s probably not because everyone hates me. But I also usually have a nice time regardless and I feel like the positives of trying to get people together outweigh the negatives, so I do it!

Thank youuu! 
Got to start packing next week, I thought I would feel really overwhelmed with it all but actually think it will be OK. Haven’t accumulated too much stuff so it shouldn’t be too complicated. Famous last words!!

That’s pretty cool that you can find your things to be grateful for even when you’re not really feeling it! It’s OK to feel like that. We don’t have to be zen masters 
I have been caught up in those cycles of not knowing who I am or whether I’m doing the ‘right’ thing (what does that even mean?!). When I can find some awareness it can help me make choices about how I behave. But I’m always just me.
What I have noticed is that when I am feeling more stable those thoughts bother me a lot less. Hope you find yourself back in some stability before long and until then, just being you and feeling what you’re feeling is enough I reckon.

Day 60. Does anyone else get nothing but cannabis related ads on this app??? Its disturbing and not very helpful since its a doc for me! Why is this happening, its been for about a week now!?! Ugh.

Checking in on day 289. I went to some restaurant opening for a friend of my partner today. It was some brunch with a full bar and the servers really trying to push those mimosas and bloody marys and local beers. Didn’t even sound good to me. A couple years ago it would have been an excuse to start day drinking. This would inevitably end up very badly for me.
Instead, I am grateful to be clear-headed and sober, ready for a nice evening with my family. Ready to go to bed sober and wake up hangover free on a fresh new day.
Stay strong, friends.

Day 22
Should this be easy yet?
I feel so physically disoriented and strange. Cant focus on anything i need to have done tomorrow.
Physical exercise and time away from phone is good but also triggering
Everything is triggering 
Trying to be patient with myself but dreading tomorrow, and the next day.

Really?!?! I don’t get those ads. But 
That’s awful!
Unfortunately when an app is sponsored they don’t get to pick the ads, paid members don’t get ads, but I’m not throwing a sales pitch here
I get odd ball ads to as well as cannabis, not my DOC, but I understand,

Thank you for responding. Im trying. So exhausted. 12 hours from now i have to be at work with things learned.
30, 60, 90 are the new horizons. Then to be 5 months sober on my birthday. Wild to think about but it could be good, at least im navigating life better now.

I also found the ads triggering. Found out it was less than $10 to get rid of all ads permanently, a one time fee, not a subscription! I enjoy this app much more now.

@roses4me and @AllyP Here’s a post by Robin where he gives an explanation about ads. You can always send him a PM with the details of the ad and he can report it.

Day 87.
I am here. Studying. Nothing on my mind but that. Lol. On 2nd thought, if this was Nov of last year I’d have been planning my day to get done early so I could start drinking, which would screw up my sleep, and my ability to take my test tomorrow. So, ha. I win today. Have a great night y’all. < 3

Hey everyone. Day one. I right this with a heavy heart. I slipped up this weekend. And I did it in a way where I lied to my girlfriend and told here I was doing things, instead of telling her the truth. I feel so low right now. I feel like i lied to my girlfriend, my parents, and to myself. I look back on the weekend and I let myself feel too good. And when I drank it went from 0 to 60 in the blink of the eye. I know I can’t let meself get started and I gave in in the worst way. I need to hold myself accountable in here. I can’t lie to you guys. I wish I had come in here earlier when I started to drink. Maybe it had made a difference. I feel so defeated and low. Sorry guys for saying this. This is such a great upbeating thread, but I know I can’t hide from you guys. You keep me honest and good.
