Day 211 alcohol free
Ach the Social media. Yesterday I was thinking about that. I use YouTube regularly. I listen to music, watch news sometimes, consume a lot of Space related things, learn interesting things about the food industry (they want our money, not our wellbeing, please cook by yourself 
) or other topics. I canāt really avoid it. And I donāt want to avoid it. I donāt abuse it, I use it.
But I canāt use the sobriety counter on that one. Iām not free from social media, Iām free from all the Apps I abused: Twitter, TikTok and Instagram.
Had to get that out.
Iām still laying in bed, shame on me (itās 11:30h 
) and google for recipes. Iāll make french toast. We call those āArme Ritterā, āpoor knightsā. I donāt know why.
My uncle who died of alcoholism used to make them, and his ones were the best I ever had. Besides his alcohol problem he was a good guy, tried to teach me fishing. We prepared eel together, I miss him.
Okay, time to get this body out of bed into the kitchen 
Have a beautiful sober day friends, stay strong

I can relate Jaz, my husband keeps wondering why Iām randomly checking my phone 
He knows Iām off alcohol, but I havenāt mentioned the forum yet. I will though, because this wonderful community has turned out to be a huge support to me, a real life line. Iām so early in my sobriety I need all the help I can get. I want to be here to provide whatever motivation I can too
I have mentioned it elsewhere on the forum, but Iām on day 8 now. I think after day 10 Iāll start checking my numbers in each week. I feel confident enough that Iām free now. I know Iāll be tried, but Iām strong enough to say NO now.
You do what you have to Jaz, if that means checking in every five minutes, then so be it 
Going to take a walk with my husband and kiddies. Have a lovely sober, healthy day everyone

Thank you Binx
Appreciate you and your words. I have found much motivation from your words. Appreciare having you here on this journey with me.
Day 8 - now to be day 9 is awesome.
Thanks - i do enjoy being addiction free but find it easy to become complacent and somehow falling back into old habits. I am enjoying this community and am finding so much love and support here that i feel like ive gained a zillion like minded friends. I am determined that this will be my new way of life and im clutching onto this lifeline as you put it with dear life 
Tell your husband when you feel comfortable in sharing. Im sure hes just happy to have you being you and your vibrant self back again. From your posts, i can see you are full of life and love and alcohol does dull /kill that. It took me weeks beforevi shared this community with my family but now im glad they know ive got wonderful support.
You have a wonderful Sunday with hubby and kiddos .

Day 992
Have been trying to be more organized with time recently, and have been keeping up with work and study and kids stuff pretty well. I am kinda withdrawing tho, not that I am super social anyway, and not sure if that is something to be concerned about, or it is just a natural phase. We will see. Happy to be sober, and now my quadruple digits milestone is coming up I have been checking my counter more often.

@liminal.rehab great job on 60 days and @Googie amazing- 1st 30 are behind youā¦keep up the awesome workā¦we can and will beatvthis addiction odaat
@Misokatsu i too finds periods of when i withdraw from everything/everyone to self reflect. If you are working on yourself and do enjoy being with you i dont think its anything to worry about. You will open up again when you are ready.
Checkung in today - another sober day ahead. I wike up foggy but did my facial ice dunks and took an hour walk in the raun (a little more than a drizzle). Feeling exhausted but energized. Getting ready fir some meditation time with familyā¦all in all a fantastic start to my Sunday
Hope you are all doing well and wishing everyone a beautiful sober dayā¦
