Morning Check In
Day 96
Feeling okay I guess today. Iām honestly not wanting to work today tho. Iām also feeling very disconnected today from TS and my HP. I didnāt do my usual morning prayer and meditation yesterday so maybe thatās part of it. I really do have to do it every day to feel okay and to feel stronger in my recovery. Will do it on the bus on the way to work. My motivation to stay clean is about a 7/10 (I do this sort of self reflection every morning to see where Iām at mentally in my recovery. It letās me know if I need to step it up abit). So yes, today will be one of those days to do that.
Hope everyone has an addiction free day!
Hugs TS fam!
Day 3 on my 2nd try.
Thank you!!
Thanks girl!!
Congratulations on 500!
Thanks man. Iām feeling it.
Checking in on DAY 2! Couldnāt sleep last night and ended up taking a nasty fall in the hall tripping over some boxes, went down on ceramic tile, knees, hands & wrists took the majority of the hit. Nothing broke, just bruised and very sore today.
In a weird way, I think maybe my failing this week was what was needed, what would have happened if I fell what should have been day 25, having those feelings to drink. I have faith in God and am a believer in things often happen for a reason. Helps me put a positive spin on not so positive stuff.
Good news the fall was 100% sober, few years back I drunk fell outside on my cement walkway, too drunk to catch myself, I used my face to break the fall. Broke my nose, blood everywhere, neighbor helped me out, oh and also managed to break a toe? Bottom line, drunk or sober, Iām just not that graceful. Hope everyone has a beautiful day!
Sorry new but what is HP?
Higher power. Used as a generic because it doesnāt have to be god, could be something more personal.
No need to apologizeā¦ HP stands for Higher Power
8 days 11 hours 8 minutes. No cravings to date. I never used to crave even while drinking I just never wanted to have free time without alcohol. I think it was more of a conditioning over the years like I couldnāt do the fun things without alcohol. When I did those āfun thingsā it was always really a gather to just drink as much as you can until you pass out. Itās been a long time that I donāt need that type of āfunā in my life but I still had the habits. Anyway I have been good so far in sobriety still my only concern short term is vacation coming up. But since Iām aware of it now I think I can prepare and plan things around to ensure my sobriety.
2m 2d and still going strong.
Thank you for asking, I wasnāt sure either. Also had to Google IMO the other day from a post I read. It means āIn My Opinionā How did we ever get through life without Google??!
Hey there !
Great to to hear from you again
Dankjewel Claudia,
Weāll be in touch
Working on Day 3 and absolutely pumped about it. Maintaining positivity and keeping to a disciplined schedule is helping immensely. I also plan to get myself some magnesium this morning to substitute for these fried GABA receptors of mine.
Thanks guys, I will be sober with you all today.
Day 18. Definitely a little mad at myself as I overslept even tho I set 5 alarms. Woke up at 6 and missed @Englishd. But out camping with the girls, bugs are wild lol
20 days free from alcohol and weed. I was worried about passing a drug test for my new job so i bought an at home marijuana testing kit. IM NEGATIVE FOR THC! So greatful right now that i can take a drug test at a drop of a dime and not worry about passing. Wooohooo
Happy to see you Marie. Missed you here. Lots of good things happening in your life. Being confused and evaluating is part of improvement. Hugs.
Hello Kat here at day 290 free from meth pills
Doing better mood wise, at work, was able to do dishes, laundry, shower and brush my teeth last night. Perhaps my 15-year-old son being with me for the weekend gave me a lift. One thing for sure, doing those chores and being clean and having clean clothes gave me a lift. Those little things are so damn hard to do when youāre depressed but also so pivotal to coming out of the depression.
Well, hereās hoping. Have made a commitment to going to Sundayās in-person NA meeting so going to make that happen.
Hope youāre all well and having a good sober Saturday!
Love Kat
