Day 111
I thought about getting drunk this morning
Well, I donāt know that I thought about it, rather the thought came from nowhere. I was a bit taken aback by it so thought why has this entered my head? I think itās perhaps because Iāve had a lot going on mentally over the past few weeks and I also have a super busy day tomorrow and will be out doing stuff from 9am-9pm working. I guess I recognised stress as a trigger. Obvs I didnāt drink but I feel a bit disturbed by the thought, like, is this where it gets really hard?
Anyway, went to watch the musical Six at the theatre and had a fab time this evening. It was so imaginative and such fun. Safe at home now I also did good work today at home and am looking forward to going into work tomorrow. Iām also looking forward to my first piano lesson tomorrow wish me luckā¦
Keep on keeping on x
Wow, youāre doing so great congratulations
Congratulations on 100 days

Iām happy to hear your surgery went well.
Enjoy the grateful sober outdoors.
Thank you @Shaunda, @Butterflymoonwoman and @Hayleylujah. Iām feeling so good today! So healthy!
Sounds like you are keeping busy and trying new things as well. Thatās awesome! Good luck on the piano lesson.
I made it 6 months today.
Thanks to everyone who takes the time to ready my check ins. I appreciate being able to come and chat and share this sober journey with you all. Reading and connecting has been such a helpful tool for me.
Iāve done so much good shit for myself these last 6 months, itās amazing what you can accomplish when you stop obsessing over alcohol and trashing your body.
Bring on the next 6 months
Congratulations on six months . That is a great accomplishment. Good job. Youāre right itās amazing all the self development now in my life as well!
Welcome home.
Thank you

Youāre awesome, nice work!! Itās a tough road but so glad youāre doing the things

Day 208
Something bad happened today. I want to drink. I got an evil looking cotton candy energy drink instead.
Im so sick of my shit!! I hate myself sometimes.
God, i could drink. One bottle of wine for the night, is what I think. One 6 pack just to detatch for a minute.
But I cant. I just cant go through all of the fucked up shit that would follow that choice. I can at least commit to something else.
I can decide who I am and what I do.
edit but it just hurts! Im not good at the things i do and its consistrntly disappointing. Almost 7 months sober. And still just, incompetent. Terrible at relationships. Skills. I just. Ive been trying every day and its not good enough.
@Ranger1209 Great job on triple digits!
@HappyDays Well done on two weeks!
@KrispyMac Three months! Whoo hoo!
@Hairytrees Cunning, baffling, powerful alcohol! You are back and that is the most important thing. You have tools from your sober time, you know how to use them
@Alycia Fantastic!
Lol, better than drinking! I often thought ājust one bottleā too, thatās like all the āmommy juiceā jokes right? But 3/4 would disappear and I wanted more than was left so I would buy another āfor one glassā and then drink the lot and pass out. And then hungover, barely able to function, wrath from the husband. Fuck that sideways.
