Day 10
Day 10 still going strong. No urges to drink and trying to stay positive S/O stayed the night at a different manās house after there date. I am still trying to find the courage to stay to keep a roof over her head and know she has food and is safe while she is carrying my child. Her actions are irrational and makes me concerned for the babyās safety. Pretty broken inside but drinking is NOT an option. Everyone says to leave but I know she will use the child to hurt me if I doā¦ just trying to stay focused on the baby to come and take it one day at a time.

I also found it beneficial and utilized natrexilone, itās a generic prescription you can get from the doctor and it has reduced the urges tremendously my buddy reccomended it when her quit drinking so Iām trying it and it seems to work. Hopefully this dosent violate guidelines or anything just figured Iād share. And glad your kid reached out !

@Charlie_C what a nice change of pace! I really hope that helps! Love that ur yrying new things! How do u feel already after getting some exercise in? It almost always helps my mood if I can get up early to workout 
@Piglet86 Iām glad ur reaching out! You made such an impactful statement just now:
I literally used to not reach out bcuz deep down inside I had already made up my mind about using and no one was stopping me. I wasnāt ready to let it go like u said. Things are very different now for me thankfully. But I really think uv had a good glimpse at what recovery can do for u and I know that u donāt want to go back so Iām proud of you girl ā

Morning Check in
Day 165
Morning TS fam! I feel like today is going to be a good day! 
I oddly enough love my clean day number today. Theres something soothing about it Today, I struggled to get up for my workout, but did and killed it in the gym. Sumo squats are not my fav exercise to do but I really pushed myself today. I ate a healthy breakfast and am drinking my coffee now. Will do my prayer and readings. Then off to the pharmacy for my 4th covid shot. Hope it doesnāt effect me too bad bcuz I have work this weekend. I am determined to have a better day today as I hope everyone else has a good, addiction free day also!

I think day two is very challenging! Is there something else you can do to make you feel good? Go for a walk or do some more intense physical exercise to raise endorphins? Do you have any hobbies like gardening or drawing or music?
Good morning friends. Checking in on day 413. I had a doctorās appointment yesterday. Afterwards, I read my chart and saw the entry āmajor depression comorbid with alcohol use disorder in remissionā. What a weird thing to read. Maybe I should put it on my resume
Slow start this morning. Having coffee and reading TS. I am proud of everyone. Some days are tough and it takes motivation and care to be
be here.
I agree @Butterflymoonwoman. I feel like today is going to be a good day!

Sorry I donāt mean to interfere and I totally could be wrong but I thought that perhaps you said you had covid recently and I believe youāre supposed to wait getting your fourth shot if you have had it recently. Maybe just check with the health nurse. Iām sure you probably have, but I just thought Iād mention it. Iām so glad youāre feeling so positive today

Omg u made me laugh so hardā¦ something to put on the resume lol. I remember looking at my file when I was much younger and being appalled by what was written (of course half of it I didnāt understand at the time lol). Anyway, enjoy ur day Drew!

Okay guys I have to come out and be completely honest. I had a friend over for dinner I told her I wasnāt drinking but I bought some alcohol free wine. She decided to bring her own vodka coolers, which I thought would be fine but I decided āokay Iām going to have a glass of alcohol free wine thenā and as soon as I had a sip I wanted something more so I added a half a shot of vodkaā¦ Saying it out loud makes me think I need to reset, but thatās all I hadā¦ I really didnāt feel affected and I really feel like if I reset my timer is going to affect my motivation to keep going so I think Iām NOT going to reset. I just want you guys to know. Please feel free to share your opinion. I feel like if this is just one little blip and it doesnāt affect me further Iām just going to keep going with my clock. If I slip again (even just a little bit) I promise to be honest with myself and reset, even if itās the same amount because I know it can snowball quickly. Iām also going to make sure I get rid of that vodka because my husband said he already did but he just hid it and I found itā¦ He didnāt hide it that well.!

Google told me () that I can get my booster shot as long as I donāt have symptoms, which I donāt. But I will clarify with the pharmacist as she is the one giving it to me

Maybe each province has different suggestions. I would just phone a nurses hotline or at least tell them before you get your shot.
