I don’t have a lot to say here as I’ve said it before, but I’m here, I’m sober and am working on myself. Hope you all have a good sober day.

Day 16½
Slept well, but my thumb hurts for some reason. 
Currently watching a movie. Seeing Nicholas Cage starting as Nicholas Cage is the most Nicholas Cage thing ever done. 
I have little planned for the day, employment search most likely. I’ll check back in later. I’m about to head out. Everybody have a great sober Thursday!

Hi Miranda,
You’re still in my heart and prayers daily. 
I do believe alcoholism and depression often go together. I went for so long before I would even admit I was depressed. Then I broke down crying at my Drs office.
Please stop beating yourself up, you’re an amazing woman, we can’t handle alcohol, period. Yet I’ve tried to drink moderately and reset so many fucking times it almost feels like I shouldn’t come back here. But I do, and I’m glad you do too.
Being overwhelmed is my middle name. First thing, stop worrying about answering anyone, this app is here for you to get help, not to fix everyone. Being a Mom, I get that. But fix you 1st. You’re not a failure, recognize all the good you do for your family.
Please take a breath, this is day 1, truly treat it as ODAAT. We can never change the past, but the future starts today! Sending many hugs lady!!

Day 117.
I woke from a vivid dream feeling an extreme pang of loneliness in my chest. I felt bright enough to get out of bed and do the morning routine with the kids, so it was a different feeling to either being depressed or the heavy after effects of the medication I used to have to take.
After I got back home this morning I did a guided meditation specifically about loneliness and then snuggled in bed until late morning.
I have around an hour to myself until I have to pick my daughter up from school and so I think I’ll make a pot of tea and read for a bit. I’m back in the habit of deleting Facebook during the day in order to prevent me from scrolling my life away! I still allow myself a check in in the morning and the late evening but my days are better without it.
Wishing everyone an addiction free day.

11 months today, enjoying very precious moments with my 8.5 months old son that I would never have experienced but for God, AA and a daily spiritual Programme!
Love and rooting for each and everyone one of you!

Day 313 AF
Good morning everyone,
Feeling tired this morning. Those damn smoke detectors kept chirping at random. I had to replace the batteries on all of them. We barely got any sleepy. I tell you what, I would’ve handle this differently if I was drunk. I probably would’ve taken a hammer to those fuckin things.
The week is flying. It’s already Thursday. My oldest son is almost done with his 2nd week of school. Damn.
I hope everyone has a great day! Stay strong!

Morning TS fam! Woke up with no wifi again. We’ve had issues with our internet service for a couple days now. It comes and goes. We have a technician coming tmrw evening. So I may not be on here as much today (unless the wifi magically comes back). Just doing my morning workout and then off for coffee and some grocery shopping! Hope everyone has an addiction free day! Hugs!

@GOKU2019 I used to live in this apartment building where the fire alarm was this huge red cube over the front door. Once in a while some tweaker would pull the fire alarm in the lobby and everybody was getting this siren going off in the middle of the night and had to evacuate the building. 
@Butterflymoonwoman Good morning Dana!

Hi Chris, that’s amazing! You should be so proud! I’m day 236 today. Do you have any advice or tips you could share on how you’ve got that far? Does it get easier? I find myself still going through ups and downs, more ups though I must admit.

Im sorry to read that your struggling so badly, Miranda. It took me over 20 years to get professional help, every time I thought I should get help, I didn’t have the balls. 2 months ago I finally took that step. Was I nervous for the first appointment? Hell yes! I couldn’t sleep the night before! Is it a lot of money? Yes… I have to spend every month 140€ extra. Is it worth it? That’s another big yes! The only thing I regret, is that I didn’t go sooner. Personally I still have some sessions to go, but at the end I think it will turn out cheap after all. Go get that professional help, and lift some weight of your shoulders! Sending you much strength, and keep checking in with us!

Day 76
I took myself off to watch some outdoor theatre. Jane Eyre
Glad I’ve got outside and did something I enjoy. Feeling more positive today and feeling as though the mental crisis is alleviating.
I met a couple of ladies I know and had a nice chat with them. Stopped to buy fresh food and will cook tomorrow instead of takeout. Feeling calm and in control 
Keep on keeping on x

Day 236 nearly done. Went on a sober date last week which was a first and went well, I was honest with her that I don’t drink and she was great, very understanding. We’ve been texting everyday since and both agreed to meet up again, I just feel like I’m boring though, if we could go out and get drunk and loosen up that way it would be more fun maybe. I won’t give in and do that but I do feel like things will fade away without being able to offer her that, then I just think I should stay on my own if that’s the case. I guess this is just another new experience of being a sober person now.
Sorry for the offload, I just don’t know anyone else to talk to about this.
