7 days no weed yayyyyy
157 no alcohol say whaaaaa

Awesome stuff

I noticed a pattern
I turn down weed all the time. Itā€™s when I have cash on me is when I pick up.

So Iā€™ll be keeping my cash on my card or letting the wife hold it

My wife smokes it for medical reasons and sheā€™s extremely responsible with it
She doesnā€™t smoke everyday and actually goes weeks without touching her bag

My last time on weed
I was like hunny Iā€™m taking just one hit
She said no
I convinced her for just one hit and after we got got in a huge fight because I wanted more and more

The last time I said I was going to smoke she gave me some. This was months ago. I smoked my bag in like 5min and realized that Iā€™m out of control and that was that

Weed is my obsession. Itā€™s not just going to be one hit. It has never been like that and it brings wayy too much pain when I pick it up.

Iā€™m going to take it moment by moment. Iā€™ll be back in a bit

Much love yall

Day 49. I am still exhausted from the emotional ups and downs from the weekend. Going to stick to my meetings this week and other recovery activities. These have to come first. The changes I am already experiencing are because of the changes Iā€™ve made and I need to keep going. I am slowly healing my mind and body and that requires a strong foundation to carry me through the tough times, either when something stressful happens or when my brain decides to throw a fit.

Yes I constantly training since high school. It is my passion and my savior. Running helped me to get out of depression caused by panic attacks. I dealt with it for 4 years. It was one of my hardest times in my life. I was at the edge of suicide, but always was believer, in God, Higher Power, Source, Universe, or Something bigger than us that our brains are unable to calculateā€¦ I always tought that suicide would make harm to others by damaging inertia of the soul ā€˜ā€˜karmic lawā€™ā€™.

I do have knowledge that death is not the end, and by taking your life away, you would just imprisoning yourself in the longlasting experience of your own misery. And we do have strong connection with each other and we do affect them in a very negative way by choosing this path. This is ego at itā€™s purest evil form.

ā€œHence this life of yours which you are living is not merely a piece of the entire existence, but is in a certain sense the whole; only this whole is not so constituted that it can be surveyed in one single glance. This, as we know, is what the Brahmins express in that sacred, mystic formula which is yet really so simple and so clear: Tat tvam asi, this is you. Or, again, in such words as ā€˜I am in the east and in the west, I am below and above, I am this whole worldā€™.ā€˜ā€™ - Erwin Schrƶdinger

I am believer, and path seeker. I do LIVE my life and not only exist. I LIVE MY LIFE. That is the reason I try to quit algorythms of prison. Soul prison. I want to break through and spread that energy.

I know I am weak. I do not have the power. All power comes from God. And I feel it, and I feel the Joy. This is my passion of life. Seeking light and not darkness. But I do fail. and fail. and fail. and I am sorry. I know that I am on the right path. I feel it in my veins. Everything will be alright.

Your values ā€‹ā€‹provide strength!!!
