I had two long stretches too! And the last little while has been reset after reset. Checking in here daily is one of the most important things and I haven’t been doing that. Also making sure that I’m eating regularly and sleeping well because hunger and fatigue are my main triggers. I’m also feeling like I need to get some new activities and people to hang out with it don’t drink that is one of the most challenging things at the moment for me especially with the summer being here now.
We did it before and we can do it again. I’m also going to make a new list of why I don’t want to drink and how much better I felt when I was sober. Sending strength

Morning Check in
Day 157
Really needing to step up my recovery game here. Sometimes I become complacent on what works for me and I have been doing that lately. Even tho I check in on here I don’t involve myself enough. I haven’t been doing my morning routine. I began slacking on my exercise and eating well. I haven’t been praying. Havent been taking my meds when I should be for my mental health. And I really felt it. And then my addictive personality jumps in and I fight myself on doing what I’m supposed to do (its like the addictive me wants me to suffer lol). It gets tiring fighting myself… even tho I’m sort of used to it to an extent, it just gets annoying and at times exhausting challenging my thinking. Anyway, today I really took the time to read people’s Check ins and I wanted to get more involved again with TS. I have been having huge guilt and disappointment over not participating alot on here and only simply just checking in, which for me is a sign of selfishness. I then did my readings and prayed (and of course I cried cuz I’m emotional like that lol), and I’m literally going to take time to treat people well today (Including myself) and focus on that relationship with my HP. I did also work out this morning… it was a huge struggle to get out bed bcuz I actually took my meds last night which makes me groggy. So that just shows me that my body has to readapt to my meds again. But im on the right path now and I’m still gaining recovery every day by staying clean. I normally post alot of uplifting stuff bcuz that’s just who I am generally speaking. But honestly… I struggle with stuff in silence and that’s an issue for me. Bcuz I’m used to just handling stuff on my own. I don’t think it’s a mask that Im wearing… u know that mask that says everything is fine and I can handle it. But even tho I am transparent with my past (addiction, domestic violence, mental health, and my past with the sex trade), I often struggle in silence with the “smaller” daily details of life. I really feel like I need to just be transparent with my daily stuff instead of “everything is great and recovery is easy or always fabulous” bcuz in reality life is hard sometimes. Recovery is fabulous no matter what happens, good or bad. But it can be hard and I wonder to myself if my usual daily posts really represents what’s going on in my life. Idk. Anyway, I wanted to be really open with everyone and I wanted to start contributing more and just go back to the basics of recovery.
Hope everyone has an addiction free day!

Congratulations on your 30 days Mindy 
I was seriously just thinking of you yesterday and wondering 
how many days you got now?
It’s great to have you aboard with us on this journey. You’re worth it. And so are those kids of yours.
You can say sober if your spouse drinks. And you’re doing it!
