Just here. Struggling, but here.
Day 11 - Today has been tough in a strange sort of way. In contrast to yesterday I feel like I tried to take on too much. I have a habit of physically doing task A, whilst actually thinking about Task B at the same time, or just wandering off and doing Task B, C and D instead of task A. Focus has not been my friend recently!
Today I spent a lot of the day making phone calls and dealing with the flat purchase. It turns out the new flat has no gas supply and is entirely powered by electric. Which is expensive, however what isnāt at the moment? I did a bit of research and spoke to some people and got myself comfortable with the idea, as it seems 90% of properties in my price range have electric heating. Still it took up most of my mental capacity to do that today whilst trying to keep the plates spinning at work.
I also realised I had been keeping a big lost of things to do in my head and hadnāt written them down or organised them into an action plan.
The result of all this was that I came home tonight and was within a whisker of relapsing. It was a wake up call and I have made some changes already so that this evening will be easier.
It is always there, waiting, my addiction. But I will persevere and try to change things when they arenāt working.
I hope you all have a good sober day
Well we will all be here, happy whenever you DO get back.
I was once at 90 days and then ādisappearedā for almost two years !!!
But things are going all right for now. Still, itās odd not to hear from you @maxwell ! I do hope that youāll be back soon.
Otherwise, all is quiet⦠not quite so ridiculously hot here in N.Italy these days, though Iām looking forward to getting back to Switzerland on Saturday.
I have to admit that I have been giving some though to those 6 bottles of red wine that I found in my basement⦠itās seldom easy !!
Have a good evening, all.
Still alive.

Day 5
I was hardly triggered by people surrounding me in a āBiergartenā drinking cold white wine, yesterday ⦠We had a therapy group meeting there.
I was there with my bike and struggled to stop at a shop to buy something on my way back.
This evening, after a call with my mother, I am having cravings again.
Yesterday I did 2000 meters of swimming in 45 minutes, a bit of walking and 24 km by bike.
I ate regularly, did meditationā¦
Today I managed a few things and was at the dentist for a check-up.
Anyway, day is not over.
Think I will just watch some bullshit in TV
Julia
Congratulations Shay on your 3 years of freedom. Iām so happy for you. Great work!

Now I am craving Popcorn
Goodnight from Germany
