@Juli1
I always love ur posts!! :smiley:

This is powerful for me today. I have an issue defining emotion as either good or bad. But in reality they are neither good or bad. They are just thatā€¦ emotions. Having emotion is a good thing i feel. Emotion is a part of us as human beings and it signals our body to something thats going on. Its what we do with that emotion is what is key :slight_smile: but i need to remember that feeling good is okay. Not feeling good is also okay too. Thank you for this reminder :slight_smile:

945 days clean!!! I canā€™t believe that :kissing::stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes: I am happy and proud of myself and my recoveryā€¦ I have done a lot of positive things throughout my sobrietyā€¦ I have a lot going on. I dropped my sponsor this weekā€¦ so I am sponsorless. My work schedule is changing and I need a break from working ā€¦ My HP is letting me know I am doing too much right now in my life and I am close to relapsing . I am stressed outā€¦ I have to put meetings and the steps 1st but I keep just letting it slide. I know I am prone to using at any momentā€¦ I am not in the ā€œclearā€ because of my time. Actually I am in a dangerous spot, not having a sponsor and too much on my plate ā€¦ my bf and me are having issues. We have different opinions on certain thingsā€¦ he wants to have sex as soon as he gets out of prison in 3 months and I have been abstinent for almost 4 years because of trauma and my own personal choices with my beliefs . I always wanted to be with someone who loved me and respected meā€¦ I really just want someone who loves meā€¦ I hate this but he is really making me madā€¦ he has been making me upset about how
He is thinking about my choices or saying he doesnā€™t wanna be in a relationship with no sexā€¦ when I never said that in the first place I just want to know I am safe and w someone who cares about meā€¦ I hate this ā€¦ I really wanted to get high last night ā€¦ I felt overwhelmed and insecure and sad and mad when he was talking to me. I havenā€™t talked to him today but idk what to doā€¦ I donā€™t think it would be wise to compromise whatā€™s going on w me in my life choices to make him happy and then feel like shit. I hope someone can give me some good advice on this issue !

This sounds like alot for any one to handle :hugs:
I think your right when you mention concentrate on a sponsor and the steps. One thing at a time maybe just get to a meeting and let the rest fall in place by itself.
Also huge congratulations thats a huge amount of sober time you have :hugs:

Oh I had real bad discussions with him since Thursday, everytime he was looking at me when opening the fridge :pleading_face::exploding_head::nerd_face::rofl:

And today I already wanted to blanch
and freeze him :yum:

But nowā€¦ 2 thirds of him are feeling really nice in my stomach! I think he was happy about the peanut sauce too. Fight ended.
:notes: Loooooveliest broccoli on the planetā€¦ Thanks for filling me!
