Day 38 (well… 39, technically as it’s past midnight here).

Not much to add, I still feel pretty shit. Depressed. When I’m not depressed, I’m anxious. When I’m neither, I’m numb. Staying productive isn’t easy either. And, insomnia just showed it’s ugly head.

On the bright side, I never falter in my resolve to make sobriety happen each and every day. There are almost no cravings, I meditate daily (Even when I really don’t feel like it), I stick to my little morning / evening routines (again, even if I don’t wanna) and I read. A lot. Today I read a terrible novel. Not what I was supposed to be doing, but better than mindlessly scrolling with a bottle of red. So… yeah. No pink clouds, but I’m no where near the dark abyss of psychiatric hell I was in this time last year. And for that, I’m grateful.

Started day one again. Tired of day ones and needed to do something about it. I went to my first meeting today and was emotional because of a hangover but good. Met some really nice people and was thanful my husband came for support.

It’s so cool that your partner is a support. I hate how so many people get defensive when I say no to a drink or drug. It happenes to me all the time

My wife is a huge support for me and it makes everything a bit easier. my wife is a toughy :slight_smile: , I mean hell, it’s me and I can get pretty crazy

Tonight will be day 357 of no self harm

just exhausted and stressed about work. I love being a teacher but with my poor health, limited resources, and very limited funds it feels like I’m the laziest teacher. I just need to be kinder to myself and that would solve a lot

#Day 1618 :walking_woman:
Last workday ahead and then a few days off from work. Going for a little trip with the husband. Time for eachother and some long walks :confetti_ball:
So today? Work and tonight my two eldest kids come to visit so we are complete for a few houres. Today my hubby and I are married for 1 year :confetti_ball:

Still miss my cat, he was so special. An old soul.
It’s part of life I know. People and animals dying but also a new baby born ore someone getting married. The circle of life, we all have to deal with it. And we better do it sober.
So do I.
