Insecure feelings are coming back as he is triggering me. I will come back focusing on myself, Selflove and my way of healing. :heartpulse:

Today I ate very good and comforty, filling batteries… but still feeling tired and dizzy. Maybe it’s weather. My blood test was excellent… So let’s hang out a bit and maybe have a relaxing swim workout just for fun and not the longest distance.

:hugs:

Today is day 15! I feel gratefull for my sobriety.
I started reading the ‘Living sober’ book by AA. Really interesting! I noticed someone shared it here a few days ago so I thought why not!
As it turned out it was a great descision to download it and read it. Made my sunday a little bit better!

I hope you all are doing as good as you can.

For today I won’t drink. Odaat.

Day 52

Knots in my stomache
I feel alone
An emotional / frustrating roller coaster of an evening. My daughter having major anxiety getting ready for a 4 day canoe trip with her school. She wanted to go, but was stressed and worried. So much to organize. We all tried our best, but emotions were high. My husband and I trying to remain calm until we just couldn’t.
We got through it
We all talked after as a family after a few slammed doors but I still couldn’t sleep.
We all recognized the parts we played and how we could have responded and I think we learned through this experience but it’s still so draining.
I drove her to the bus really early this morning.
She will be ok. She was smiling.
I came home and cried
I feel alone.

5 years ago I was crashing on a floor in an apartment that was about to have the power shut off. My parents had thrown me out and were no longer speaking to me. My friends wouldn’t answer when I called because all I did was ask for money. I was stealing convenient store candy bars for food. Considered throwing myself off a bridge. Good times.

Anyway I’ll have 5 years sober in 10 days thanks to AA. Here’s a picture of my parents and my kids out at the pumpkin patch.

@icebear Well done, and a great milestone coming up!

@KrispyMac My condolences. Strength to your family.

@Noshame Happy birthday!

@C_8 Congratulations again!

@Miranda Dealing with my son is so draining too. He is ripping his textbooks into pieces out of stress. Screaming and crying that he won’t go and feed the crayfish that he wanted and collected becaus he is scared they will have died.

@Englishd Lovely pic.
