Checking in daily to maintain focus #48

Making coffee to take on my commute to work a late shift. New work week, last one before my vacation. Yay! Let’s do this. Sober and clean, just as I expect from all of you. That’s why we’re here. Have a good one all, or at least as good as you all can. Much love. Waited with my check in so I could share this.

On the morning of day 3, running on no sleep. I feel bleak, empty, without any purpose, lonely as ever. I have no job now, no more IOP, nobody to go see or talk to. I can feel the tears piling up behind my eyes but I’m just incapable of crying. Everything is overwhelming and frustrating. I want to be done with this…

Hi Kamj, I was where you are just a few days ago… It does get better. One week in and Im finally feeling great! On day 5 i convinced myself that i was seriously ill and would never get better (tad dramatic :sweat_smile:). Just be kind to yourself and take it one day at a time this feeling will pass.

Congrats on your day 3 Kam.
I’m sorry you don’t have anyone to talk to or see. There must be someone somewhere. The beginnings of recovery can be very overwhelming. Are there any meetings you can go to? Get out for a walk. A long relaxing shower. Or all three.
There’s lots of great threads here to read. The gratitude thread is my fave. It always calms me down to read what we are all grateful for in our sobriety. The sober selfie thread and meme threads and pet threads are lots of fun for me too.
Hang in there. One day at a time or maybe just one hour at a time. :pray:t2::heart:

18 days sober from weed today! :tada:

My health has declined a lot and I didn’t realize weed was masking a lot of my symptoms for years😬 definitely grateful for this experience so I can move forward with my healing journey.

Congratulations everyone on your progress!

27 days in, and things are going good. A little under the weather, so I’m off to the doc this afternoon.

I’m thinking of Hamlet on sobriety this morning: “Assume a virtue, if you have it not.” Modern translation: fake it til you make it. We start one hour or one day at a time, sometimes just getting through it, but it does get easier.
