Thank you!!
Checking in 443 days.
My daughter has been sick all week with a horrendous flu and is still ill today. I haven’t caught it yet but we probably will over the weekend I’ll work from home and let her rest another day. I’d hate to send her and have more kids at school catch it. It’s a nasty one.
Feeling really strong in my sobriety again. My depression has just about completely lifted which is just incredible. 3 weeks today after starting Prozac. I just can’t believe I struggled for so long before getting some help.
Have a great day/night friends
Celebrating day 251
So glad that medication has helped lift u out of ur depression! Thats soo good to hear! I do hope tho that ur kiddo gets better and that u dont catch it as well
Checking in on day 12
Very relaxing day
Picked up some groceries
I’m very fortunate to be where I am today more then I can ever thank for
My wife is safe next to me and she’s very comfortable
I have a roof over my head and a job
And I have peace
I’m saving saving saving money as much as I can possibly
Now I just need to stay sober, stay respectful and responsible and work and save
I’m kind of sad the world can be so cruel
There are people in very tough places
A month ago I was 24hours about to be on the street with my wife and kitty
Now we are all here including kitty, safe due to miericle after mierical
Never underesmate the power of love
I know hate is hard to overcome. Anger can be so powerful but just giving issues to a higher power and just trying a little bit each day grows and grows into amazing things
Stay strong
It really makes me so happy to hear that u all are safe and doing well! Really happy for you friend!

Cold mornings are here
Wow, congratulations!
Yesss, such a good response!
Thanks Dana
Such a relief to finally feel a bit more human again.
Hello friends checking in on day 734. Feeling a bit worthless today. Hoping tomorrow will be better. I attended a work picnic thing with my partner for her work. SO didn’t want to be there, but I gotta be supportive, as she has always been super supportive of me. It went fine but now my (very low-capacity) socializing tank is depleted and I am ready to crash and burn. Much love.
Hell yeah!
Checking in with 1,355 days of recovery. 🩷
I cleaned like half of my apartment today & feel that a lot of the anxiety & depression has lifted. I go weeks without cleaning & it seriously messes with my mental health. I brought Winter to the doctor’s today. I found out she has strep throat, so she’ll start her medication tomorrow.
@mno I do hope you had a great time at the party tonight!
@nastya_is_fighting My goodness I can’t believe your dentist’s unprofessionalism. So glad that your dad was able to go with you and that you will soon get your braces removed. I am so sorry that you are feeling anxious and scared. You have been doing so well my friend – do not think just because a book says you exhibit all the warning signs of relapse does not mean that you will. I’ve seen how supportive you’ve been on this site and your loving attitude will help you stay strong against the urges. Please do not feel that you always need to be positive – we have our ups and downs and its just a part of life. Sending you comfort my friend
@buterflymoonwoman Your gut instinct is always the best. I’m sorry that you will have to take on the shifts but hopefully everything will work out in the end. Sending good vibes that they are able to find a capable nurse for you so that you won’t have to do this for long. I do hope you are gentle with yourself in the process – I’m sure the upset in sleep will wreak havoc on your energy. Much strength
@marc3 woot woot – you are beating your record. You WILL make it through the gig – just remember to have your tools in hand (see if they have na drinks or other mocktails – figure out what you can order / possibly take with you ). Have your phone ready with app open so you can check in if needed for support. You are doing great my friend and I do believe you can keep adding on the days!
Locky91 thanks for the app info – will give a try myself. Looks super awesome and another thing to help keep us on track.
@alexwayhill Oh my goodness – a huge congradulations! What a beautiful day and a perfect ending – thank you for sharing your joy!
@juli1 so excited for your new sleeping pillow – have an amazing sober slumber my friend!
@scorpn Congrats on your 1 day of being free of cigs. Sounds like a lovely day / afternoon. I do hope you got your nap!
@noshame So happy for you my friend!!! Glad to see things turning around for you
@icebear I’m sorry that you are feeling this way. You were sweet to show support and I can understand how social tank can be depleted. I hope a good night’s rest will help recharge you. I think you should be pleased with yourself rather than worthless – you went, you supported and all in all it went well… Kudos my friend.

The day did start out great but went to hell in a hand basket real quick. I was not able to keep focus away from pain and itching and ill feeling. It got much worse as the day progressed and my emotions went downhill with it. Went really dark for most of the afternoon (i forgot how quickly the dark hole can engulf you when you are weak) - my positive thoughts and comedy and all that did nothing as i could not get past the pain… Glad I did not give in to any of the negativity today. I am not in danger of relapsing or from myself. I still feel like shit but have a bit more control over my emotions atm. Sending you all so much love and thank you for being here helping me from the shadows
Thank u for ur support friend I pray that ur evening will get better. Im so sorry that u have to go thru what ur going thru. I cant imagine but i am here for u. Hugs
Thanks love.
just exhausted now will be brighter soon enough — appreciate the hugs
Sending you much love and support Jasmine. I hope you feel better soon. As always thanks so much for the kind words snd good advice
Sounds like you got a lot done today. And im happy your son has only a minor cold. Hope he feels better soon. Please give me your secret to have all that energy. Lol. I always have to make myself get out of bed.
Checking in at day 4. The weekend is approaching which makes me nervous. But I’m trying to plan a hike or something outdoors to keep busy. Have a nice evening everyone
