Wow this is mega. What a champ. Helps to see this, I was struggling to string a few days of sobriety the last few months, I’ve managed 11 so far this time.
Seeing this is inspiring, Thankyou

Day 1. Honestly I am glad I reset the way I did last night and caused my self all the pain and guilt because it seriously woke me up today. For the first time in a while I feel tru gratitude and love for myself. Seriously time for big changes and more support. I’m glad I’m here alive.

So I hadn’t thought about drinking all day. It’s been a pretty great day. Then my husband and I went to the grocery store and on the way home as we are driving by the liquor store, he says " I’m just gonna stop here for a minute". Ughhh. I kind of wish he had told me before we went out. I probably would have stayed home. I guess he didn’t want to bring it up then either. Anyway, honestly it’s not a super hard core craving… But it just kind of made me feel blahhh. I’m tired, it’s been a long day, not much else planned. It made me think… …“Well I could drink” , but I won’t. He got his beer and I waited in the car. I don’t drink beer. There’s nothing else at home, so on I go. Ive got to find something to do that I want to do, but I just don’t know if I feel like doing anything. 
Just needed to share. Thanks guys❤️

Day 35.
Saw a matinee movie, then went to a meeting i thought i might miss but glad i didnt, and then got a fair amount of writing work done.
Of course in a mask, always a masker. Still, peopled out.
My life has fully changed now that i have a car. Autonomy. Convenience. Feeling i might die every time im on the highway. Buying lots of heavy liquids and cans at once at the store. Used a quarter tank of gas in 24 hours. Ugh.
I have taken to drinking soda out of wine glasses.
I am reserving judgment on all my intrusive thoughts. Not enough info. Need 90 days sober and 50 more books read.
Whatever happens, using or being toxically miserable is only going to hurt myself and others. Just, one day at a time.

I used my favorite wine glasses for quite a few months at first. I even asked waitpeople in restaurants to serve me my sparkling water in a wine glass with lemon. Good for you for keeping up ODAAT.

Hey 
I’m very tired still but seriously so grateful colored some Easter eggs with my girls. Monday I’m going to be making some calls and find a therapist hit a meeting and just really start living. I’m not mad at myself, I don’t really feel shame or guilt. But I really feel love for myself, usually I black out but last night I actually like saw myself and who i am when I use. And it just instantly woke me up at how good life is seriously being sober. Seriously it’s time to live and love

I’m really proud of you! That feeling u described, the one about really seeing who we are as a person in the problem, I remember that all too well too. I remembered seeing that for myself a few of the last times I relapsed. It’s actually a good thing in my opinion. Relapsing sucks for sure… but Mike u sound like u have awareness that uv never had before. They say everything happens for a reason… I think this insight was the reason. To truly see what was missing in ur life before (like u said to start really living life and seeking out that extra support), and then to remind u of what it could be like again. There is so much more to life than using and drinking… and I know u know that! I’m glad to hear ur doing better right now. I’m glad u didn’t disappear from TS. Be proud Mike!!
