Hi and thank you Dana :blush: I think itā€™s time for me to start looking for my own place actually. Itā€™s something that Iā€™ve been thinking about for awhile but the problem is that itā€™s so expensive here in San Diego where I live. I will be ok :sunglasses::metal:t2:

Hi @Planipennia, the reason I keep having new roommates is because they keep relapsing. I live in a sober living apartment and once they use they are kicked out. I agree with you about living with other people 100% :face_vomiting::face_vomiting::face_vomiting: but itā€™s just something I have to do at this point in my life. I will be ok itā€™s just draining. Thank you for caring! :sunglasses::metal:t2:

Day 247 AF

Ill try to be on here more. Lately Iā€™m having a ton of cravings. 2weeks ago I tried to find the key to the barn where my dad holds all his beer. I got in (found a backup key because i asked him along ago to hide them from me. After I got in I just went back in the house and told my dad about the key 3 days later cause I thought itā€™d only bother me knowing I had acces.

He still drinks 4 times a week or more and everytime i see him get groceries I canā€™t help but thinking about the possibility of having one crate all for my own for just one evening. Everytime this happends I just try to distract myself but the thoughts keep coming up whenever. Im not sure why but maybe these thoughts keep coming up because I isolate myself so much. I donā€™t really tell anyone how I feel still. Donā€™t talk much to anyone in general. Iā€™ll try doing a daily check in again and reading peopleā€™s stuff on here more like I did when I just got out of the clinic. Maybe it works. Good evening everyone, good nights rest!

Day 231
Today has been a day of just trying to get better. I dont have the chills n fever anymore. Just a little achy still and lower on energy. Managed to get a few things done at home, as well as have a nap while my son was at school. He has an appt tmrw morning bright n early for a dental cleaning. So it will be a long day at the hospital as he has it under anesthetic. Just finishing up some dishes and waiting for hubby to get home. Hope everyone is doing well today :slight_smile:

Today has been okay. :neutral_face: Managed to lock myself out of my apartment today. Landlady showed up an hour after telling me sheā€™d be by in 15 minutes. Brain, my Peer Support came at 12:30 so couldnā€™t go anywhere before his visit. Stopped at the library and left all my DVDs in the self-checkout kiosk because I was running for the bus and just not thinking. Had to go back for them but thatā€™s okay because Mr. Robot Season 2. Dude has deeply unhealthy coping mechanisms.
Last night I pulled some chicken out of the freezer, cut up some bell peppers that werenā€™t wilted yet in the fridge, and made Basmati rice for dinner. Donā€™t feel like cooking tonight though. Best part of the day? Havenā€™t been feeling that urge to drink like I have for the last week and a half. So, good day. Job appt. tomorrow. Hope I get it. Great sober evening, all! :v:

Checking in at 858.86 days sober and 478.98 days ED free. So, so, so much has been going on and Iā€™ve basically just turned inward. Iā€™ve basically retreated into my quiet little life with no interest in much of anything, especially humans. I literally changed my phone number so I wouldnā€™t have to respond to texts or calls. I donā€™t know if Iā€™m depressed or just exhausted. But Iā€™m here and Iā€™m sober. Being on here the last few days is kind of a big step. I no longer do anything that requires interaction. The thought overwhelms me. Weird.

Whelp, happy Monday sober party people :heartpulse:

Day 85ā€¦very stressful work day but instead of drinking when i got home i channeled my stress into cleaning my house. My life is so weird right now with relationships, work and my mental health. I feel like im in limbo.
I liked the message today on the app. I am just trying to do my best :smiling_face_with_tear:
