Have as good a day as you can friends. Sober and clean. Love.
Day off. Coffee time. Me time. Not sure what Iāll do yet. Thatās fine. It wonāt involve drugging or boozing thatās for sure. x
@Butterflymoonwoman My own pictures yes. Thanks. I really like to do it. This oneās from 6 years ago today, Texas Hill Country. I can feel the warmth now.
@SoberWalker Thatās a great image friend.
@Minatasha Youāre here. Thanks for that. Iām with LeeHawk in saying you might need more help too. Hugs.
Day
So it seems I still have a job, but got new truck to drive today and it is nightmare atm. It has semi automatic clutch that I have only driven once in the past and it looks like that one is even more complicated. I struggling so hard to get it going in the city, cars beeping around and I am like ##*@#! ##@##!!!
looking for answers everywhere, calling other drivers hope I will work it outā¦
Checking in between mental break down and tax declaration drinking another hot chocolate.
I am about to apply as being a āSchƶffeā jury member at court for the next period. I fulfill ALL requirements could be interesting. For all German people: they are looking for the next period 2024 to 2028.
Hey there everyone! Just wanted to check in a bit hope everyoneās doing well out there on their journey to Soberity. I found this great meem and just wanted to share it with everyone. Today I went to my momās still looking for a car and also helped my mom clean her house bc my family case manager for DCS is coming to do a home check so I can start my unsupervised visits at my momās with my son and I am just so freaking excited I cannot wait to see my baby I miss him bunches!
Sorry to hear what youre going through but making yourself vulnerable to us all. Ive been through something similar, oh man the despair was intense. Not sure what you believe in but dropping to my knees and calling out to God saved me.
Please dont give up. Listen to those voices that speak love and life into your spirit and ignore the rest. š©µ:blue_heart:
Hey Dana Iām hoping to be writing more music, painting/drawing and doing a lot of reading! I find that I have not done those things in so long it is a little difficult getting back into it but I know the rewards will be worth it! Have a great day!
Day 1,018 clean and sober, day 2 no social media. Itās crazy how many times I want to look at my phone throughout the day and crazy how Iāve conditioned my brain to do that. It canāt be good to be so hooked on something especially something that consistently floods my mind with so many things at a time. Iām excited to see how things progress for sure. I hope everyone has a great day today, love you guys!

Checking in for yesterday, typed all of this last night but fell asleep before posting. Will check in later on for todayā¦
Woke up nice and early, did my morning routine, played PokƩmon for an hour, then did my morning walk.
Then I walked to the shopping centre as I was on my last glass of squash, stocked up on that, plus I found a waterproof jacket, the last one of itās type, and it fitted me, and the bonus was, the tag said Ā£35, but when I scanned it it was Ā£20!
I walked home, then did 2 loads of washing, one is drying on the airer, the other was stuff I tumble dry so thatās dry now.
I was suffering with dark depression all afternoon, it took all of my strength to get myself out for a walk. All I could think about all afternoon was crisps (chips), Iām still thinking about them now, but I havenāt given in, and the shops are closed now, so Iām safe for tonight.
In the second half of my walk, about 10mins from home, I felt like I was going to pass out, so I had to sit on a bench for 10mins, I still struggled the rest of the way home. I get these funny turns sometimes, and I used to eat a load of something sugary, thinking my blood glucose must be low or something, but I didnāt use that as a reason to eat anything today.
This evening Iāve been freezing cold, even with the window closed and heater on. Iāve had to resort to wearing thermal top and bottoms, thermal socks on top of regular socks, then my Batman onesie on top!
I hope youāve all had wonderful sober weekends.
Day 3 for me,
Not really sleeping but apart from that not too bad,
I will be grand for the next 2 nights as I am working,
I ill have to be on my guard after that,
Love this App
You are dealing with a couple of addictions, whatās your status with all of them? Feeling like nothing can ever get better is a trick of your addictive mind. Many of us here have experienced life getting better once we are free of addiction, you can too.
Day 72.
Itās becoming hard to post on here and stay connected. But I know checking in is good for me, so here I am. Sober and present, despite my feelings on the matter.
Day 2 again was a ruff weekend feeling better today will be going to a meeting this week to get back on the horse hope everyone is well
I am sorry you are in this bad head space right now. I have no real advice for you. You were writing a lot about your cleaning strategy. I was often thinking, why is this so hard for you. Then, in the last weeks where I faced a lot of changes in my life that shake me I discovered that bit by bit my apartment looks like a disaster. It take a lot of energy to say: comon, put the things where they belong instead of dropping them somewhere. Itās a structure I need and one is impacting the other in a positive or negative way. I have to force myself to tidy up. Also, I had to let go of the expectation that my life would change for the better just by not drinking. This somehow didnāt happen. I have to be active to make changes and only not being hungover every morning enables me to do some steps. Itās not easy at times. I am glad you are with us here. Donāt give up in you.
2 days down feeling pretty good did some yoga this morning that sucked lol
Hey all, checking in on day 1,016. I hope everybody has a good one!
Do you have other sober peers outside this app?
I have my husband and my dog. Aside from that, I donāt have any peers. Sober or otherwise.
