My sweet sweet friend, even when you’re not feeling well, you take time to talk to each of us. You are incredibly thoughtful and caring!
I am so sorry you had such a hard day! I am glad you’re doing a bit better and I hope tomorrow is leaps and bounds better!
Lots of love and hugs for you

Morning, checking in on day 453, feeling good. I’ve arranged to meet a friend tomorrow which will be nice. She’ll probably suggest going out to the pub for lunch but that’s ok I guess.
Have a great day

Have as good a day as you can friends. Sober and clean. Love.
My weekend started, although I do have group therapy to attend later today. But no work.
Work party was nice. Big. Nice venue, a permanent festival site on the outskirts of town. Met some old friends, old colleagues, and new ones. Drank mocktails and water. I even danced.
I left early, when the alcohol drinkers were beginning to have the upper hand and the atmosphere changed a bit. When I passed the main bar on my way to the exit I had a small crave to have “just one fast one”. It lasted just an instant and I rejected it out of hand but it still was there. After four years. Insidious bastard addiction is. Never again. One day at a time. X
@AlexWayhill Yay Sascha! Huge congrats to you both! 
@JazzyS Hope your sleep will be healing friend. Big hugs
@Dee19 Glad you’re back Dee. We’re in this together. You do this for you. The healthy you. Let people think and say what they want

#Day 1731 
Send my sick co worker home yesterday so worked on my own. But it was doable.
Today? Go shopping with my eldest son and lunch somewhere. Tonight goldsmith class, the last one before summer closure. Still tired, but overall doing good.
Haven’t walked much lately because of the heath.
So no nature picture, but just my big fat cat sleeping 
May her chill mode radiate on everyone
Have a good one!

Day 909,
Going on a walk and lunch with a friend/former colleague. Long since we met, feel some anxiety. Feel this regularly now when doing social activities. Most activities turn out fine, but still feel my depression/PTST so takes a lot from me at the moment. But it’s better then staying on the couch, also some anxiety that I might crack and the tears will come when I start talking.
Greetz,
Rob

Day 
Already watched some YouTube recommend video about alcohol and recovery first thing in the morning scrolling 
I think I will start to call all alcohol beverages, beer, wine, whiskey you name it - I will start to call it - C2H5OH - as this chemical formula better suits this Poisonous chemical 
One Week. Pretty easy somehow. Feeling much better. Less sleepy 
Works great 
Workout was strong yesterday 
Mood is

Day 153.
Last night I had what can only be described as a meltdown. Feelings of anxiety and a sense of hopelessness I couldn’t quite explain. I cried and uttered those words I’ve been hiding in the back of my mind for the past week, “I need a fucking drink.”
I was scared that if I acknowledge those five words or say them out loud, then they become real. And relapse becomes inevitable.
But as soon as I said them, the opposite happened. The words lost their power. Yes, I still think of drinking. No, I’m not perfect. Yes, I miss the coping mechanisms that were literally a part of my life for over a decade. These things don’t just stop because I’m in recovery. And that’s ok. Feeling like I wanna go back to drinking doesn’t mean I have to. It just means that I’m human and recovery is a process.

Yes to that a hundred times! By naming stuff we gain power over it and we’re no longer ruled by it. Excellent work. Thanks for sharing and have a great sober day friend!

18 days being clean from self-harm.
Morning check in.
Woke up with shitty mood and as well I’m tired, so I will buy some coffee when I will be at library. All night I had anxious mood and I didn’t felt nice. My medications helped me at least.
At school we were all day on playground, so I enjoyed a lot nature there. And I think I have new friend, hah! 
Honestly this little creature makes me smile even now. 
I hope everyone are okay.
