Day 878
Busy day back at work. Then took kids to karate, remembered other odds and sods of work, and spent the evening doing that. Felt HUNGRY today, but it is day 5 no binging, so probably appetite is just settling down. I did have a waffle in the evening, but kept it to that.
Checking in on day 5. (Tonight at midnight will officially be 5 days.) Sleep is beginning to improve. I still cant seem to actually fall asleep until 1:00 am or so. But the quality of sleep seems to be significantly improving. Its wonderful to wake up with NO hangover. Its feels good to sit here and drink coffee and think about tasks I want/need to complete today instead of thinking about how soon i can get a drink to numb the ill effects of a hangover.
Hope everyone has a good day!
Great work, those first days really are the hardest. Keep on going, keep coming back 
Day 573. Travel dramas over the last few days as our flight got diverted to St Louis due to the winter storm. Slowly making progress towards home. Always an adventure to travel this time of year. 
Fucking LOVE THAT!!! 
Day 937 clean and sober. Rainy out but getting ready to drive out to the mountains anyway. I hope everyone has a great day today, love you guys
I hope the things you were sending are more expensive then 26 Ā£?
Congratulations to 2 month of soberness!

I love you lady! Im so proud of you!!
Check in Day 6 AF
Iām mentally doing better this week, and Iām glad to see the days adding up again. Iām going shopping today for my granddaughter & planning on a little photo shoot with her tomorrow, which I am super excited about. Iāve been looking online at some ideas, but not really sure what Iām going to do yet. It definitely gives me something to look forward to especially living alone & going stir crazy from time to time.
Checking in day 53
Day 96
I slowly feel that my health is improving 
Iām still terribly tired in the morning (5 hours of sleep are not enough, I work on that) but in the afternoon my power goes up up
No Anxiety or high stress, it gets better.
It was a really good day at work, nice patients and some nice conversations that show me that Iām on the right path.
Now Iām heading home, Iām hungry but I donāt know what to eat 
I thought about how I felt yesterday and that I felt this irrational fear. But I was able to get me out of this darkness pretty fast. Today everything was fine, much more optimistic and a calm mind.
Thatās it for now 
I hope youāre having a beautiful sober day, stay strong 
What an absolutely fantastic post 
when we feel the progress weāre making in ourselves it starts to get reallyyyyyy interesting 
focus on the feelgood stuff, do more of that. You are doing amazingly Sabrina, almost at triple digits! Youāve got this, and I think you believe you have to 
Morning Check
Day 326
Morning has been good! I was veeeery tired this morning, so ended up sleeping thru my 515am alarm to workout. BUTā¦ i did something this morning! I joined a Virtual Race through Conqueror Challenges!
I am okayā¦ Feeling fine and relaxed.
Back from holiday, nice to be here again,
had a swim and will go to yoga later, although I am already tired.
But I really have to force myself to bring that head sober on the pillow. Donāt feel safe.
Thatās the plan 
44 days not feeling to bad today chilling on PlayStation
Happy sober Thursday everyone
Hey, thanks much! I kind of dipped out again, but unintentionally this time for the most part.
I found myself recognizing the trappings of a low- grade to moderate depressive episode Iād been in for an unknown amount of time and had to come to terms with the need to take responsibility for my part in getting out or pulling myself out of the worst of it.
Iāve still been doing therapy weekly but since my therapist has been battling with cancer for a while now, things seem to have complicated for her and weāve missed a couple sessions. Iām really worried for her, she really is great and I hope she can pull through. I can always see another person if she gets to that point but in general I hope sheās alright.
Due to that, Iāve realized that part of this process is bringing myself to do the things i need to, to rewire my neuropathways permanently. I have resolved not to regress because of her absence but rather work harder than i have for a long while (think last summer) and completely hold myself accountable for the work at this point. I needed to own this for myself anyway.
Things are alright, itās life and Iām honestly just trying to hold out hope for spring right now (3-4 months out from now, so).
Making myself pursue this process and glad to dip back into this community again. I have to be careful about going into āghost modeā unintentionally.
Hope youāre doing good as well; and sorry this reply was much longer than i anticipated!
Thanks much! Iāve been working through some internal struggles and such, but finally have some solid grounding Iām working on building even more clearly than before.
It feels good to respond to what couldāve been a potential for regression with deciding Iām too scared of those repricussions to just ālay down and dieā, if you will. Personal accountability for my own sake is a process Iām not native to honestly, but Iām making it a point to get there and itās honestly been a great change.
Iām happy to have made myself finally just get back here, Iām relieved to have the same support and solidarity again so quickly!
I hope things are going good for you, and thanks again; Iāll make sure I stick around this time
Check in for motivation
