You sure need to get it checked Chris. I went to the dentist first time in 4 years or so a month ago. Stuff needed to be done to my mouth too, and while it wasnāt fun, I still did it, I survived, they have really good local anesthesia these days and I feel really good about it now. Youāll be good.
And big congrats on 18 months friend!

Amazing 549!!! I am thrilled for you!!! I am currently recovering from intense oral surgeryā¦and while it is not exactly pleasant, it IS necessary. I hope you will go get your mouth taken care of. Our mouth health is actually connected to our full body health. You are so strong mentally and emotionally now, cherish your body / mouth as wellā¦imperfections and all. 
Rooting (haha, little tooth pun) for you!!!

Day 37.
Took the day off work (Iāve been procrastinating more than working lately, so figured I might as well do something different with my time), went for a long hike and then the cinema to watch Titanic in 3D. It was amazing. I fucking love that movie.
Yesterday I was really low, today Iāve been feeling a bit better. Still a lot of shit racing through my mind, but I guess itās part of my sobriety journey thingy.

Congrats on 18 months! Always remember: dentists want your money, so they want you to come back and that wonāt happen if they treat you badly 
. Good luck for the appointment, youāll feel really good when youāre done

Day 44. Discharged from IOP today. Not sure how to feel. I feel good about my sobriety. But nowhere close to where I hoped to be in terms of mental health. Right now Iām really struggling to get through a few hours of work. Left a meeting in tears because my brain is in such a fog I feel useless. Iām feeling discouraged. But Iām not going to drink. One day at a time.

I can relate to this one. I pretty much got through my first 100 days with soft drinks and milkshakes. It helped haha

Stick with it, youāre doing great. One day at a time.
I read this back to myself and it sounds like a haphazard cliche. Sorry about that.
Find yourself and identify what makes you happy. Focus on you and building the best version of you. Surround yourself with people who truly enjoy your company and who genuinely care about your success. Make sure to repay that sentiment. Iām rambling, take care of yourself.
Give the dogs something from the fridge that theyāre not supposed to have.

Day 372
Today has been hard. Just a hard day overall. Started my day off with a mild argument with hubby over dishes (me not finishing the cutlery yesterday as i ran out of time). Things just snowballed from there. My son is still sick and i have extreme fatigue. So everything takes a boat load of effort for me to do. I found myself crying from just pure exhaustion. And instead of my husband showing any compassion whatsoever to the fact that ive been pushing myself for 2 days to try and get things done, i get told that im lazy and that im always tired. That hurt honestly. I was feeling rough yesterday and went out n did a huge grocery shop so we had food choices, gave my son a bath, did half the dishes and made supper, did 3 loads of laundry and made the bed with fresh sheets, and then did 2 more loads of laundry today (my son kept getting sick on our towels), and did more dishes and took care of our son all day with his illness. Either im just too sensitive of a person and took that ālazyā comment to heart, or maybe I truly am not as active and energetic as i think i am. My mental health does effect my energy levels sometimes. I didnt feel supported at all today honestly. And normally he is quite supportive of me, so today was off for both of us i think. I think im just over emotional today. Im hoping for some good rest tonight and some self care. Again, i didnt have much time to read on here and catch up but know that u all are in my thoughts 
hope everyone had a great day

Big hugs. Youāve done soooooooo much. . Itās probably stressful for both of you wondering if your son is going to aspirate. Without causing further upset, what did he do? You donāt have to answer but sounds like you did it all. Hopefully your son is soon well and everything will get back to more normal. You. Do. So. Much. Every. Day! Try to eat well and get good rest, Dana, itās a hard time for you right now.

Day 1 part two for me. Managed to make it 7 days last time then my birthday/super bowl/etc but recommitting starting today.
Iāve been drinking at least six drinks almost daily for four years, which began with my wife getting sick and bed bound for over six months as a way to deal with stress and pressure. and got even worse after my dad died almost two years ago (alcohol related). I refuse to allow myself to go down the same path to an early grace that my dad did and need to do better for myself, my kids, and my wife.
Today is a new day and Iām feeling optimistic!
