Il look him up after watching the video I can tell he could give an as you said blunt motivational speak, it’s what we need sometimes someone who wont sugar coat it and tell us.
It makes us think, get our minds ticking and brings a strength out in us.

Day 206 here. Gosh, I haven’t been on here in some time.
I miss all the wonderful peeps Ive met on this app.
Started working with my Sponsor on the NA step workbook. Very different than Celebrate Recovery. Grateful to be part of the solution today.
I had to cut ties with my best friend as he is still using. It was the most difficult thing to do because he isn’t mean, he isn’t crazy… He is just still choosing speed over a healthy life and who am I to force anyone into my lifestyle?
I am working for Recovery Homes and I am a peer/recovery Coach and I sleep, eat, breath, live in recovery. What kind of integrity would I have if I kept a friend in my inner circle who still shoots dope in his veins?
I’m torn because I adore this man and at the same time I can not be in agreement with his disease and his addiction.
It’s messy and the one thing I’m understanding and learning to accept is my powerlessness over EVERYTHING except my ability to make choices.
I love working with people and hearing their stories and helping guide, lead and cheerlead others toward their goals and success.
I’m honored to be where I am today.
I have so much more to learn and grow and yet…I am good just where I am right now, in thos moment.
I’ll take another 24.
God bless.

Day 668
Another week down. Fairly calm home life right now. My son’s meltdowns seem to have calmed down, he is caring a little more about his grades, but still cares mostly about playing guitar. I have also tried to ease off. Daughter is usual active and determined self. Husband has been thanking me almost daily for doing the kids’ homework checking, place taking, etc.

Nice to see you checking in and congrats on your 206. It Sounds like you keep doing the next right thing. I love reading that in people.
As tough as that decision you had to make with your friend who is still using. It’s a no brainer. You made the right decision. You can always continue to pray for him. And you never know……. Some day…… but it must have been very hard.
Keep up the good work.

Finishing my coffee. Going to Haarlem now, to visit the Museum of the History of Psychiatry. Never been there, a bit of a omission from my education as a mental health nurse. And my own history of mental health problems.
Meeting my therapist yesterday was tough. But good and necessary. We decided to keep seeing each other regularly for the time being, until we find an open spot in a suitable therapy group that deals with my abuse issues. I can’t do it all alone. And with some stuff I need professional help. That’s fine. One day at a time.
Have as good a day as you all can friends. Make it sober and clean or nothing will come of it. Love from Amsterdam and Mt. Adams September 2018. Was thinking about that trip. Good memories.
@Ravikamor Huge congrats Rebecca!!!

Day 3 is harder than yesterday. It’s the feeling of looking forward to have a drink. Though I always had regret it. I am grateful that I can notice that feeling and I decided to replace this. I will make my hair looking good as I can before my boyfriend will come tonight. And not to offer him immediately wine so he can’t smell (for sure he smelled it) that I already had some glasses. Sounds pretty bad, but that’s the way it has been. To be honest.
