Hey all, checking in on day 1,052. I hope everybody has a good one!
Thanks @Binx and @Juli1 . Iām still sober. I definitely donāt want to go back to day one again. It was a huge struggle to get to where I am. Iām just really struggling with life right now and my depression. But I know drinking will make things worse. I just need to keep reminding myself if that.
Jazzy youre just the best!!! Your support has been amazing and im thankful for you and all of your kind words. Hope you have the best day today!
Thank you Billy!
This community is amazing and im just blessed to be a part of it. Glad we are here to support each other.
So happy to see you and Kya bonding so well. She is absolutely beautiful.
Day 246 and this is my project for the weekā¦1 of only 2 reasons i miss having a man around, i hate gardeningā¦but ive made a startā¦
Still so much to do but ive promised my daughter i will have it ready for her and her friends to enjoy in the summer
Iām sorry to hear how low you are feeling Karen
You donāt mention if youāre on antidepressants, if youāre arenāt, maybe it could be worth a visit to your doctor?
Donāt go on suffering, as if you do then the bottle might start looking more and more like a good idea. Iām glad youāre not willing to give up on your sobriety. Protect your sobriety at all costs, and remember alcohol is a depressant. Hope things get better for you
Are you still on sick leave or on vacations?
So, travelling by bus has been OK?
This week I am on vacation.
Why are you asking?
Day 2 and im trying to rely on others a little more this time around. I went to an AA meeting for the first time lasy night and got a 24 hour clean chip. Idk why something so small makes me wanna try that much harder but it does. Staying strong but feel a bit sick
Thats an undertakingā¦best of luckā¦you can do it!!!
I am on antidepressants from a psychiatrist and also see a therapist. But I think it might be time to try a different medicine. I did the gene/dna test that is supposed to tell you which meds you metabolize the best and waiting for those results. Itās been a lifelong struggle with episodes of depression. I know it will get better. It just sucks right now. Thanks for the support!
Because you said you were on the sofa 5 hours ago.
Thatās a great reason to get it done
Youāll get there, little by little. Once youāre done, it will be easier to maintain
Day 2 - thats great work. The beginning is super hard but the end results are so worth it. Glad you made it to the meetingā¦keep going and jumping on here when you need. Getting a 24 hour chip is not a small thing. Each milestone leads to the next. Wishing you a beautiful day my friend.
Stick with it, it will pass. Your body has to get used to not relying on alcohol, thatās why you feel so bad at the moment. It wonāt be forever. Well done for going to a meeting, you have them in your sober toolbox now. Any little thing that helps is very worthwhile doing
Checking in on Day 443
Have a great Tuesday everyone! Will do my actual check in later
Thank you for sharing this cringe! On Mothers Day, 2020 (also my daughterās 13 birthday), my kids came home from their dadās to a drunk mother with no food or presents in the house for her birthday. My son had to take my keys away from me as we checked out of the grocery store. Cringe indeed. I need to reflect on this memory from time to time.
Day 336. Iām doing well. Should be in a apartment soon, getting ready to apply for school. Nervous bc Iām not sure if I will do well, but Iāll never know if I donāt try. Iāve had a few cravings recently. Yeah I hope all is well with everyone much love
