I have made it to day 72 alcohol free. I have not been gambling either because there has been a strong connection between the two for me.

Im going to get out of bedā€¦drink coffee and find ways to put some wind in my sail today.

May we all find some moments of serenity today.

Day 200 alcohol free
Day 8 social media free

Iā€™m waiting for my potatoes to be ready :drooling_face: Going to eat them with herring, onion and curd.
While waiting Iā€™m on here, reading and listening to some interesting stuff on YouTube.
I deleted everything political and everything negative.
I now mostly watch videos of a guy who shows how the food industry is lying to us. Heā€™s really fun to watch and I learned a lot :grin:
In the morning or evening the radio is on and I update myself with some news to not be totally clueless.
But this way Iā€™m feeling better! Itā€™s enough information and it doesnā€™t overwhelm me like social media did.

Potatoes are ready! Time to eat.
Have a beautiful sober day friends, stay strong :muscle::kissing_heart:

PS since quitting social media I realized that Iā€™m starting to get tired around 8pm. The body is adjusting and returning to its natural rhythm again :slightly_smiling_face:

In my early days I lived on this site. I read constantly and posted a lot, including a daily or even multidaily check in on this exact thread. It can really help a lot, and you know you are not alone in this. I hated disappointing my husband, too. Keep coming back! It takes work but itā€™s not complicated! We are here for you.

Donā€™t give up and take it one day at a time. Some days are tough but theyā€™d be so much worse with alcohol. You can do this! This forum is such a great support. :yellow_heart:
