14 Likes
48 hours something
I am focusing on the fundamental things.
Glad to have much time for sports this week.
My fundamentals are
- sleeping.napping
- eating
- moving
Had a 2500 Meter swim and a 90 minute yoga intermediate class. Had good food and a nap!
Second level that helps me fundamental too:
- meditation
- free writing
- tools like counter thoughts or split.screen method
- social contacts and good conversations
- having goals and focusing on it
- having rituals and plans
I noticed it’s super important to focus on the basics.
But due to my relapses, I would have to organise that I can joyn a meeting regulary.
I prefer dharma recovery online meetings.
Need to give it a try. But all that programm thing is also putting pressure on me.
Much love

143 substance free
60 self harm free
106 not restricting food
I haven’t been good at checking in here much as i was the first 100 days. It isn’t intentional, I have just been feeling rough, and going through a lot of emotional rollercoasters,
I am two months free from self harm! I am practicing being kind to myself.
I’m still depressed, but i have a lot of crap that i deal with lots of bad anniversaries, and I’m just doing the best I can.
I hope y’all are doing good

You are very brave, you might have fallen but you also always rise up again and again, and it takes a lot of courage to do so.
Let this be a reminder of how strong you are

Day 54. Sleep was a bit better despite tornado warning for 30 minutes in the middle of the night. Still sick. 
Work was okay today and I’m slowly making progress. My sister gets here soon and it will be nice to visit with her. Just taking things one day at a time.

Reached 11 months yesterday. We are spending the day at an adventure park today, it’s busy, I’m feeling pretty run down and not adventurous at all. But my son is 13 today, so all the kids are having an awesome day. The sun is shining, and I’m just relaxing and observing today.

6 years 2.5 months. Had my daughter’s IEP (Individualized Education Plan) meeting at her school today. She has an intellectual disability and is nonverbal. They had a lot of good things to say about her and since this is high school they are starting to talk about her transitioning to work. It’s good to know there are options for her. It was 2 hours of listening to them talk and it’s always exhausting. I came home and slept afterwards! Tomorrow’s my birthday and I kinda hope it’s not too interruptive because I want to catch up on work. I’m going to brunch on Saturday with my parents to celebrate.

For me it helps to think: I can’t control the behaviour of others. But I can control the way I act on it. So I try not to let it upset me if I can. Not easy but most of the time it works 
For what I’ve reed you like your job, so I would not leave if I where you. But if you do not look around for anothere and then leave. Never trow away the old shoes before you have bought the new ones

Project cat…that’s where I’m busy with
She is still hiding most of the time but sometimes she suddenly walks trough our livingroom and let her pet herself. Last night she finally ate something so I’m very happy with that. A cat becomes sick if she doesn’t eat/drink for 2 days and can die because of liver faillure.
This morning we found her hiding behind our television
Little steps each day to let her get used to our house and us. A bit like recovery: babysteps!
Well I think I know how that works for a bit
One day at a time
Today? Work and tonight gold smith class.
Have a good friday all!
