8 days no caffeine, and no alcohol for
Day 1000.
From 3 to 4 digits isnât even close to the excitement as going from 2 to 3, but nevertheless a nice one.
For the newcomers wondering whatâs that promiss about growth is about - image your mental growth to go as fast as the physical one.
Nice, congrats !
To you tooo
One week no caffeine! You are amazing!
Edit: should have kept scrolling to see that you hit 3 years and 6 months on alcohol. Congrats on both!
Good morning from Europe!
One more day trying to be out of the booze.
A lot of work and tasks to do, so there is less danger of failing off again.
It is great to be awake⊠and sober!!!
Congratulations @kat261 with your 9 months I deffinitely need a picture of that keytag you wil receive!
Well done for 1 week sober @Bigbear
Wow @Mno what a nice back up plan she gave you. Exiting to start a new job. Getting out of your comfort zone is growing Happy for you!
Ps sorry to hear your friend broke up with you, just read it. Missed that somehow. Can you fix it ore do you not want that?
Glad youâre back @anon53116147 and took some action. Hope you go to that outpatient facility.

Morning all, checking in on Day 26. Half way through the working week too, love Bank Holidays!
I have been struggling recently but have plodded through it. My fatigue last night was extreme which is such a trigger for me, but seem to have woken up feeling a bit more human. Hopefully that is the beginnings of recovery. I am desperate to enjoy the Spring/Summer and build back up my stamina. I was meant to be outside and this fatigue has meant being in the living room or bedroom far too much.
I have been on this journey now since early February, so 3 months. I feel like a different person and am really enjoying that
Congratulations on 10 days and the football win. That was a stressful game for a neutral so really impressed you resisted!
I am also not telling friends I am permanently giving up, just âhaving a breakâ. Much less pressure that way, less conversation around it.
Beautiful picture of a very beautiful flower Menno. Annoying such a short night. You can try discussing the things that are going on in your head during therapy. Itâs always a kind of difficult such a transition phase, but try to see the positive side of it and enjoy your days off and the great opportunity youâve been givenđ
Day 4-5 is my make or break day too. Thankful Iâve gotten to 7 days. The last 2 have felt better than the first 5. Keep at it!
Nice number 1000! And certainly the time/days that go with it. Big congratsđ„ł
Day 60, my clock will change at 8 tonight
And I thought I had crushing depression before! My countrys government is trying to criminalize abortion, not for any care for human life, but to control body autonomy of poor people.
I wont drink. Didnt at the party full of alcohol at my home last night. Glad i made the choice once, now i dont drink. Easier than the constant mental balancing act, making excuses and bargaining.
Feels like i have a foot in my past and future life. Tired. Sad. Cant wallow, just do my best every day. Cant wait to say im 6 months sober.
Absolutely sensational
Day 22 no weird dreams last night yay
Hey Everyone! Day 3 here. This week has had huge ups and downs. Reset the counter, had one drink the other day and realized what I was doing. Made Monday a little low for me. I think it has to deal with my upcoming vacation. I leave tomorrow for ten days and instead of looking forward to vacation I am so anxious and stressed about all the work things I needed to get done this week. Today is the hardest because everything is seeming to pile up on me right now, just before it is time to head off. Like as this week has progressed, more and more things have been popping up on me. Really anxious this morning! Had a hard time sleeping, so I am tired too. This is going to be a long day. I wonât use today, just need to make it through each hour and just make sure that if I need a little break to take one. Itâs not only trying to be sober I am learning, it is dealing with my depression to. So I am starting to learn the signs of when that is affecting me as well. This is a long journey, and I know there will be ups and downs and I am trying to do my best to recognize things and to know when I need to take a step back or to refocus to something else for a little while. Iâll check in later.
Hope everyone has a great day!
