Day 6
Depression and anxiety passed.
I am forced to rest today due to a lil inflamation that had to be cooled and so on.
Maybe that was needed!
Body forced me to rest.
Mind is a bit more rested now as wellā¦
I also passed a big fat craving.
Safe now.
Be strong - L O V E!

338 days AF. I have struggled with depression ever since Iāve stopped drinking because of me being violent towards my husband the last time i drank. He has never been happy with me ever since that day. Even though it has never happened when i have been in my right mind, he canāt let it go. He now wants to separate.
I donāt feel in danger of drinking again. I even had a couple friends offer to get drunk with meā¦as if it would fix things or momentarily fix feelings. They didnāt push the issue when i declined so it wasnāt offensive.
I wonāt drink, even if it feels like my whole world is crumbling I know it wont help anything.

I actually think this recovery journey you are on makes you one of the best dads Iāve ever met. It might not be how you feel, but you sure as heck are taking care of your daughters and setting such a crucial example for them going forward as well.
Do you seem them monthly? One thing Iām starting to realize about me, Mike, is that I donāt pull the trigger on doing different things because Iām unsure. I have seen, however, that taking opportunities even if you donāt think itās completely the right fit, tends to lead you to the opportunity and outcome that is. Just an observation thatās smacking me upside the head right now. I donāt see the CNA job where you are at now to be a bad thing, and it certainly wouldnāt be permanent.

Awwwww thank you @Nordique, @Its_me_Stella, @JazzyS, @Dazercat, @Mno, @RosaCanDo and @Juli1 I really appreciate that very much!!! Itās crazy to think I had only 8 months clean and sober when Corey passed away. There have been a million āno matter whatāsā between then and now for sure. Iām really proud to be on this road with you all. Thank you again, love you guys!

Second check in.
I was with my boyfriend in library today. We started to read one book about story of mother who has schizophrenic daughter (honestly I a lot relate to her daughter, because Iām as well schizophrenic). After that we were reading about autism, because lately my boyfriend is trying to find out, if he is autistic or not. In a lot of things he actually relates when comes to symptoms of autism, which I find a lot interesting. Itās fine to know that my love is trying to find out with what he may struggle, so he can help to himself. 
After that we started our diary, where we drew a lot of funny stuff! Here is the first page of our diary. 
Then we had dinner and went to home. When we were closer to our house it started to rain, so we decided toā¦ dance in a rain. Yes, dance in a rain! It was beautiful! 
I absolutely enjoy time with him. Iām glad I met him, heās one of the reasons why Iām still sober and fighting with my demons.

Been a bit since I checked in here. I am doing much better and have wrapped my mind around this move and life change better, too. I can honestly say I am excited now! I felt guilty for not feeling excited and feeling a whole lot of mixed up feelings for a while. Iām glad I talked through that with my partner and other folks, too. I notified our landlord/rental company about not renewing our lease (itās up at the end of July) and got a really nice message back about them being sad to lose us as excellent tenants. We have lived in this house for 4 and a half years! That is the longest we have ever lived anywhere, so my feelings are vaild on leaving. I really canāt wait to move and be done with it, though. We will be accommodating the rental company with showings so they can find new renters and thatās fine, but it will feel a bit awkward. Weāre halfway through moving and it looks a shambles, and after this weekend when we will have a moving truck to move most of the big stuff it will look even more a shambles. Thatās okay. Of course the weather forecast doesnāt look great for Saturday either! Rain and thunderstorms. If this is the most exciting time in my life I will accept that gladly LOL!!!
I am grateful for plenty of good sleep lately, no insomnia to speak of, my sore muscles tell me I am alive and well, and life is going to look very different in the next couple of weeks and I am excited!!! Sending love out to you all, amigx.

Really sorry to hear this. Maybe a separation would help him? To see you continue improving yourself and staying on the path of sobriety. Regardless, this falls under the things you donāt have control over. I wish you the best. Itās not easy but it is important and Iām glad you have stayed steadfast in your sobriety through this.

The meeting went okay with the place that holds social events for neurodiverse people, she thought it would be best for me to attend the online groups to begin with, in particular the in-the-making LBGTQ+ group that will be ran by another lady. She said I could attend the regular online group as well in the meantime to see how I get on, then work towards attending an in person event. The service is new to my area so the socials are small at the moment, so I think I will try to attend ASAP if theyāll let me. Because the support worker will support me the first time I go so that would make it easier.
Iāve done both walks today, itās very hot in the UK at the moment, there is a lot of dead grass around, much like last year, and itās only been hot a week or so.
I have booked onto an in-person course that starts tomorrow, so I am feeling anxious about that, I donāt even know what itās about! The email was titled āCreativity For Wellbeingā so I assumed it would be some kind of Art sessions, but when they confirmed my place, the actual course is called āCo-Productionā. Iāll report back tomorrowā¦

Dude, youāre rocking this new stuff so well! I am so proud of you for getting out of your comfort zone and pushing yourself to try new things. I honestly take this as inspiration for myself to do some things Iāve been scared to try. A support group for women in my age group dealing with mental health issues just opened up and I want to go but I was so scared to try. Youāve given me motivation to check it out. Thank you!
