19 days- feeling quietly very proud of myself for not letting my slip up with sobriety over the last few months knock me down or keep me from living my life.
Iā€™m grateful to have the opportunity to enjoy my life, not just drink my way through it. I feel optimistic, which has not been something Iā€™ve felt in the last few months. The alcohol depressive clouds are lifting. Itā€™s such a relief šŸ„²
Thanks for being here guys x

Tonight is day 47 of no self harm

I managed to get through last night. I tried to vent about what I could to my friend and then we watched a musical.

The stress from yesterday and my weak immune system caused a migraine and Iā€™ve been unable to do much of anything today. But I feel a lot better mentally.

My grandpa still is not doing good, but heā€™s going to the doctor tomorrow. I may go to the library tomorrow and work on school. Whether I go to the library or not, I have to work on school.

Iā€™m beginning to realize that if I continue to force myself to be around my family, I will not be able to keep myself sane or safe. Iā€™m going to have to figure out something. For now, Iā€™m just gonna try to get some sleep tonight.

Iā€™m gonna start putting one positive thing about my day in each check in. I need some positivity. Today I ate a snack without any distractions. An apple and caramel dip. Normally I have to watch videos or do something to keep my mind off the fact that Iā€™m eating. But I ate and my phone wasnā€™t even at the table. Was a fully present/aware snack which I havenā€™t done in a long time. Now I know I can actually do it.

Checking in on day 1950. That seemed like a nice round number I didnā€™t want to miss checking in on! :sweat_smile: Iā€™m working a little bit on some work proposals tonight and making sure my 13 y.o. son does some of his school work. He needs to do a lot of catchup work for his English class. Heā€™s about 12 assignments behind!!

Good morning from Europe!.

Today I am not feeling ok. I am allergic and spring it is not a good time. Nevertheless, it is always much much better than suffering a hangover. I am proud, even not being perfectly ok, of not having taken alcohol.

Letā€™s start the day!

The pollen here is really bad right now too! My eyes feel like they have sand in them. Hopefully it will pass soon. Glad to be sober too :heart:

Hey everyone! Day 57 and Iā€™m feeling good. Work has been great Iā€™m loving my new position and scheduleā€¦. working nights sucked the life out of me now that I am on days I feel more productive :slightly_smiling_face:! I started working on my business again because it took a back seat these past few months but Iā€™m ready to relaunch my site and products. Just like with my sobriety and staying sober I know in order for my business to grow I know it will take CONSISTENCY and that is something I struggle with but Iā€™m trying and so far Iā€™ve been consistent with staying positive and being around those who are good for my mental health.

Itā€™s allways so good to see people reach their 1 year sober. You did everything sober for at least 1 time: your birthday, New Years Eve, BBQ, festivals, party, wedding, Easter, 4th of july, holidays, etc.
Congratulations!!:tada::tada::tada:
