That was a catch-up and a half, Lordy! Props for tagging everyone .
I feel for your current situation. I hope u can get the confidence to go to meetings or take a walk whatever ur size. U deserve to be there, if it makes u feel good or u get some benefit.
Haha good job. Looking forward to the picturs. I also did a kind of makeover for myself. I wanted to get rid of the look of the old me. I had bright red and very long hair. Very striking. I had that look for years. So basically it kind of suited my user time. So now I have cut my hair shorter (it is now medium length) and a normal brown color. Not a color you can see from miles away. Happy with my new self!
Right on. I kinda went the oppositeā¦ When I was in active addiction and abuse. First I wasnāt allowed to do anything he didnāt like and second I hid behind my āplainā look. Thatās why it took so long for anyone to figure out I was an addict. I disguised myself well.
Thank you!
Thank you Jennyā¦
I am tired today. Going to resit the urge to exercise and just rest.
Thank you for the Birthday shout out toy daughter. Oh boy was she ever small the size of my hand. Thankful for the miracle she is.
Hope your feeling better today.
Hey Cam
Thank you on both fronts.
Hope your doing well! Iāve been off the forum for a few daysā¦so need to catch up.
Two weeks sober! Yeah!
Thats right get that! I just startered running this last weekend-legs are like what thaaaaaffffff in a good way- makes me laugh that I did something good.
Thanks Catmancam. Glad to see you are back. I always appreciate your kind words.
Iām at less than 3 mg and still, bored (and angry at myself) with that addiction. Of course itās better than joints that were killing my lungs and my brain and my will to live, better than cigarettes too, but I want to get rid of that. Itās psychological, I dont really feel any crave with 3 mg. What will I do with my hands
Thanks for this! I woke up this morning with lots of anxiety and feeling blue. I just took the time in a quiet place and listened. It definitely helped. I felt a little calmer and readier to get through the day!
Check in
Day 64
I had THE 2nd worse using dream Iāve ever had last night. Slept hard but woke up to my hubbys alarm at 5am and thought to myself, " Omg what did I do?!". Had to fully wake up to realize that I didnāt use last night. That I literally went to bed and slept all night. So grateful for my sobriety today and to be reminded of what it was like.
Anyway, I have a work related mtg for 3 hours via zoom in the morning, a dr phone call early afternoon, and an errand to run. Busy day but trulyā¦ Iām grateful to be able to do these tasks and not be sooo strung out that I couldnt care less. So yesā¦ sometimes life is shitty and hard, but Iām not complaining today Cuz Iām grateful that I CAN do basic everyday things
Hope everyone has an addiction free day!

Hope everyone is having a great day for of positivity because is what I am sending out to you today.
