#Day 1615 :walking_woman:
Made a nice walk yesterday and saw many trees wich has met a beaver.

Never have seen so many trees damaged by it. Beavers where seldom here and so they started a breeding program and now there are to many :face_with_peeking_eye:
Feeling a bit sick today so taking it as it comes: easy.
Have a good sunday all! :raising_hand_woman:

Day 44

Mate time :matƩ:

I believe this was exactly the last photo I posted when I relapsed and gone from TS for longer time. I think I was around 1 month or less.

Life goes in cycles thatā€™s for sure. In a way, we evolve in cycles.

Brain chemistry changes / It becomes our daily posture / and Structure of habits that becomes our REALITY.

Sometimes it might seem like it all has no meaning, or we might see no point or perspective in all what happening around. And That is fine! We should not fully understand that, it is that those moments when everything clicks in a perfect bliss - we call miracles, enlightenment. Do not stop believingā€¦

Day 36.

Thereā€™s a lot going through my messed-up mind. Might give it itā€™s own post at some point. Whatā€™s important is that Iā€™m sober.

Great post, zzz. It is absolutely okay that we donā€™t understand everything and how the universe works. Itā€™s just important for us to let go and strive to connect with it. I see a different zzz in your posts this last month. You seem to be doing really well. Glad you are here.

Donā€™t give anyone this control over your decisions. Noone can have this control over you if you donā€™t let them.

What is it in him that evokes feelings that you want to numb by drinking?

@Juli1 Please donā€™t apologize to us. You got back on the wagon immediately. And you are changing your number. All positives. Rooting for you!

Checking in with a 1 1/2 days after a minor slip up, after another couple of months sobriety. I donā€™t even know what caused it. I felt like I was doing good, and doing the things I was supposed to. I was listening to a podcast last week and the guy said we have a 90% chance of relapse within the first 4 years, and I thought to myself how the fuck am I supposed to beat this, and than thought nope itā€™s not gonna get me this time. Before I knew it I was drinking, woke up hungover and absolutely disheartened, ( I realized it quick, but it couldā€™ve gone a whole other way). Here we go to start stacking days again.

Iā€™m glad youā€™re back on the horse, youā€™re gonna make man.

Maybe you really have to change your number or find a workaround to avoid those notifications? It seems as if it is a big trigger, as you have already mentioned.

Your soberness has top priority at this moment!

Hi sober fam, happy Sunday to you!
Happy to report attended Refuge rRecovery yesterday, all was good just a quite a bit bigger group that used to (more love right ?) The Emotions Anon meetings usually had max 4 ppl a lot of times just the 2 of us.
Group unity comes first before personal recovery -EA love this one : )
I felt the love in the room at RR and enjoyed (cold weather temp) walk after as well.
I know where Iā€™m spending time at Sat afternoons And grateful for this and for you all here. I know I am blessed and will give back to the fellowship.
Safe travels and Happy trails friends :heart::heart::heart::hugs::hugs::hugs:
