Day 958
Nice first day of spring vacation with the kiddos. Lots of washing from their trip, and a little cleaning. Then a walk under the cherry blossom, and called in the park and a couple of shops.

Then yes, I think staying active on here is good 
. Remember, as well as sharing about your own journey, you can be a listening and supportive ear to others.

Do you want more connection with friends, sober or otherwise, in real life? For me, connection to other positive people is key for me in recovery. I had to force myself to get out more and put myself out there in the early days, thatās paid off in spades. Amy, you have a very funny personality, I definitely would want to hang out with someone like you. This may be a missing piece for you to find some joy, fun, laughter. . . So important especially in the early days. Wish we lived close.

Today makes 50 days sober for me. I cant believe it and i can at the same time. Ive definitely earned every day, this hasnt been easy. Im thankful for the people i do have in my life as support. Im also thankful for this appā¦ i cant even remember how i found it. I think by searching the google store for an app that tracked your days clean. This app is so much more than that and who ever thought and brought this idea to life, kudos to you!!! I cant wait to hit my 60 daysā¦ but i really cant wait to crack the year. Its nice to have goals again and to be thinking clearly. I have alot going on in my personal life right now but my sobriety and mental health will have to trump anything and everything. I hate to sound so selfish but i have to fill my cup back up, i have nothing left to pour. Each day that passes it gets a little easier ( sobriety).

Yeah, Iām trying to stay on track despite what my brain is saying. All I really want to do is rot in bed eating junk and watching Netflix. Instead, I make myself meditate every day, leave the house at least once a day and go to that fucking coworking place a few times a week whether I feel like it or not. Staying connected with this sober community is also at the top of my priority list. Iāve made it too far to go backwards. And I do really enjoy reading peopleās stories. Weāre all so strong.
@LeeHawk thank you for saying that. Iām pretty nomadic at the moment, so itās hard meeting people in real life. And I also burnt down all my bridges in the past decade and a half that Iāve lost count of people who want nothing to do with me. If I care too much, I can become (VERY) toxic. And I have no idea if those traits are easier to control in sobriety. The only reason my husband didnāt leave me is his insane stubborness, heās probably crazier than me. Lol

I can relate to this a lot. Between my own toxic past behavior, moving a lot, and the pandemic (which basically led to me being a recluse), I donāt really have anyone aside from my partner. Iām hoping that by going to some in-person meetings I can eventually make some peer connections but I also know you canāt force it. At least I know that whoever I may meet in the future will know sober me and not nightmare drinking me.

Checking in on day 170!
Had some cravings this past weekend. They came, they past.
Since the beginning of this month I moved in to a nice appartment with my girlfriend. Itās going great. Some new scenery. No memories attached of my drinking days.

Checking in day 204! Had a really great weekend and spent time outside in the nice weather. Work all day today and on call tonight. Having some heightened anxiety- probably just related to it being Monday. Letting it pass soon hopefully.
Hope everyone has a marvelous sober Monday!

Day 177
I did it! I went to work and back home on a bike 
My legs hurt haha, it was something like 20 km - ish. I didnāt follow the maps exactly because in every second street was a construction site. In the morning this took me almost 50 minutes because I had to take a lot of sideways and breaks to check the map. Back 35 minutes.
The bike is really heavy, Iām not able to lift it up. The heaviest Iāve ever had. But it will do its job. Iām tired but happy.
Although the day wasnāt the best (one coworker quit) Iām in a good mood. Moving the body really does something good with the brain.
Now Iāll order food and snuggle up in my favourite blanket on the couch 
Again no cravings but didnāt sleep enough. Must change that. Having a good and long sleep (8 hours) is very important.
Have a beautiful sober day friends, stay strong

Day 1 - 48 hours sober
Was in a bad mood during day.
Now itās getting better and I feel some hope.
I thought about bringing my yoga mat to the office tomorrow and ask my boss to have 10 minutes sometimes inbetween work (we have a whole empty floorā¦ And the company I am working for is awarded for health management)
Health Management, so why not! 
)
Will have my lifeguard training now and something warm to eat afterwards.
Need to pass through these days at work, although I am not realy okay.
Will make an appointment at my doctor anyway. Need some special advices about training and eating. Still in trouble with that, as I am always very hungry, but that canāt be a reason for doing less sport. As this is realy Fundamental to me.
Just some thoughts and insightsā¦ 
Much love 
You are loved

Checking in, staying AF today odaat, feeling very content to be free of that poison. All it ever did for me is to heighten my stress & anxiety. Maybe there was the relief I was seeking for 1/2 an hour or so, and that is not worth it to me. Grateful to be here, alive & kicking, and staying the course. Grateful for all of you.

Day 351 AF
Went to the doc and got my first sick leave in 5 years, enough of not putting myself first.
I have been dragging myself enough when not at a 100% plenty of times in the past, and itās not worth it.
I guess Iām tired of getting to Fridays too exhausted to enjoy anything, and this time I had to deal with a nasty cold in the weekend that seems has chosen to stay a bit longerā¦
Iāve been feeling so tired for such a long time.
