4 months 17 days, still sober. Last year this Date I relapsed. Today is really a minutt by minutt. Its Norways Constitution Day.
Happy Constitution Day
Checking in on day 374. More of the same today. Getting a killer back workout in right now. Doing some homework this afternoon, and have my sonās concert this evening. Have a great day everyone. Itās a great day to be above ground and sober.
Checking in today to celebrate 2 years sober.
It has been a long and hard journey to get here. It still takes daily monitoring and awareness of triggers and mental preparednesses.
I am so happy I found this forum!!! So many people helped me get to this milestone.
Thanks TS!!!
If you are just starting KEEP TRYING!!!
It is worth it!!
Awesome! Good work.
Congratulations
Wow!!! Amazing work on 2 years!!!
Morning Check In
Day 92
Woke up for another great workoutā¦ did legs today. Also had a good rest! Got some relaxing, easy going things to do today along with coloring my hair. So im excited for that!
Late last night tho, hubby got a text fromā¦ guess who?.. our old dealer. He got a new number and was going thru the contact list and wanted to see āhow we were?ā. Againā¦ he said, āHavenāt heard from u in awhile, everything OK?ā. My hubby told him that we were done with it long ago and that even if we wanted to, we didnāt have the money for it anyway. Our dealer told us that he didnāt mind dropping us off a bag for free. Sooo hubby told me this and then said to me that thereās this guy at work who uses on the weekends and that he could make some easy money off of it by selling this free bag to him. There are many things wrong with this plan. 1st off, I donāt want anything to do with our dealer or his minions lol 2nd of all, I DO NOT want that in the home for many reasons but especially bcuz it would just be sitting here in our home for 4 days and thatās honestly dangerousā¦ to think I am even strong enough to have it around me for that long, would be ridiculous. 3rd I think itās sickening that dealers give out freebies to get u re-hooked and spending money againā¦ not today or ever Satan! And 4th I donāt want to be the person responsible for keeping someone addicted and adding to this mans addiction. Sooo many things wrong with this. I told hubby these reasons and he said ur rightā¦ we dont need the money that bad anyway (which we dont). He blocked that new number and deleted the message. That couldve been bad. But sooo grateful for recovery and for my HP right now!
Hope everyone has an addiction free day!
Hugs
Whoo hoo! So happy for you!
Hi all Kat here checking in on day 286 without meth pills.
Recovering today after my PTSD was majorly triggered last night by a joke my brother made about it. It made me realize that I am not āoverā all my trauma and probably need to see a therapist again and get real. I feel bad for going off on my brother but to me this shit is deadly serious. It led to my initial drug use and nearly killed me.
My psychiatrists office phoned back I have an appointment June 1 going to talk about increased episodes of depression and suicidal thoughts which are usually an indication that I need a med increase/changeā¦
So thatās that, I am at work and doing a bit better today. Have lots of support which is great.
Wish everyone a clean 24!
@Butterflymoonwoman you got it, there is no way that shit can come in to your house, I would be relapsing within hours if I had dope in my house.
Day 704 clean and sober today. Yesterday was a go with the flow nap/eat day and I needed it. Todays my Sunday and I will force myself out of the house and do something good. Have an amazing day everyone, I love you guys!!!
Glad ur continuing to keep working on the mental health aspect. I find being mentally stable so crucial for recovery. I feel awful about what happened to u with ur brother I hope he was apologetic and realized how serious that was for u. Itās funny bcuz my trauma too, I think Iāve pushed it down soo far over soo long that I āthinkā itās been dealt with. Then something will trigger it and itās a huge realization to me how I really havenāt dealt with it yet. But most times I donāt think it bothers me. I donāt know what happened to u (and im soo sorry that it did) I hope that you gain some sense of peace around that When I think of the things that have happened to me, I wonder to myself why my trauma seriously doesnāt debilitate me today. Am I that desensitized to it that it rarely does much to me?! Thatās awful to think about honestly. I guess all we can do is work and heal around it when it pops up.
Making great choices. Your dealer was not being nice. One free bag now, 50 paid bags later. And your husbandās plan had more holes than a sieve.
Bro this is so good to hear!!!
Hey everyone. Another day down. Today seems to be a tough one. I have had bad cravings all day and I am trying to put them out of my mind. I knew I needed to check in here to try and help fight off the cravings. If I canāt get rid of them, Iāll be back to post again. Hope everyone has a great sober day
Congrats Kyle !

Holy wow!!! The balls on that guy!!! Im glad u stood up for yourself and sobriety that was a big test
What you see outside are picknick tables. Itās a small theater with a restaurant.
