Day 1217
I have not been on this thread so much. I got behind (changed internet providers, so no home internet for a few days) then got a bit overwhelmed to catch up and kept putting off looking. I missed reading peopleās check ins, tho. Glad to be back.
I also wanted to get it out that I have been having odd flashes of thoughts of drinking. I am assuming they are just random thoughts, like the thoughts of jumping in front of an oncoming train, or grabbing a money box off a security guard, or pulling down a strangerās overly baggy sweat pants. But still, being aware that they are there and maybe that is a sign to get back to basics a little.
So day 28, I woke up decent and said my graditudes and my prayers. After this I have a one on one with my med therapist and Iām going to see about getting on a ssri for my depression, Iām in ok spirits for the most part but do have a little depression, other than that with being off all my other meds I really donāt notice any difference from being on them. My vyvance that I was on I notice nothing being off it at all, I literally feel the same. So for me I think thatās a good thing bc personally I donāt want to be on all these medicines if I donāt have too. Other than that Iām gonna make the best of today much love
Day 131
Took the time on my accountability Log to detail out all my systems iām establishing going forward. I still have a long way to go, but iām learning more and more, i dont have willpower. What i do have is habits, habits stacked on top of habits, and this is how i create motivation and structure in my world. I just want to be 1% better everyday. Iām trying to apply what i learned from Atomic Habits to structure my life daily. Iāve seen success with this but like everything else, CONSISTENCY is always a struggle for me.
Iv been on ssri for years. They definitely take a while to start working. And by now, if i miss a day on accident, i can totally feel the difference. I hope you find what your looking for and dont be discouraged if you dont feel immediate results. Just my input. Have a good day mike
Day 171. Working hard. All ok. Looking forward to relaxing this evening. Hoping to do further study next year but letās see. I need my sobriety in order
1 week gambling free. Had some near misses but found a better way. Iāve hidden and lied about gambling more than any drink and drug Iāve ever had which I find strange as I considered it the least of my problems. I also find it the most embarrassing bc itās not addictive chemically like other stuff so canāt blame a bodily craving but mentally the obsession is the same.
Iāve blocked myself from online gambling and still found a loop hole so now itās all about self control and being less selfish.
Onwards and upwards.
Thank you for this. Youāve made me realize the reason I donāt want to go to this co-workerās house (again, Iāve done a few of her parties in the past) is becauseā¦ I donāt like this co-worker.
She is not my cup of tea and that is okay. I will figure out a way to send regrets and move on.
I donāt love socializing with people I donāt know very well these days and that is okay too. Drunk Emilie tolerated a party with strangers quite well. Sober Emilie just needs to keep it closer to home for a while longer.
Sobriety is just so wild when a truth hits your brain. Thank you for your response. Iām feeling empowered by this today. š©·
Checking in on day 9
I had little sleep last night due to anxiety and was pretty tired and stressed today. Hopefully tonight/tomorrow will be better.
Looking forward to the holidays, I just installed the last christmas lights outside the house. It also light up my mood, so cozy!

Het weer momenteel is ook niet echt iets om over naar huis te schrijven he

Day 667
Hi everyone! Hope you all are having a great day/evening! Today has been nice! Beautiful weather out which always puts me in a good mood. I did a small grocery shop early this morning and am now waiting for my hubby to meet me for lunch at a restaurant. Then home to make chocolate truffles for my Christmas treat tins. All n all things are good today! I think my better mood is partially due to getting better sleeps since ive been on these sleep meds. So grateful for that! Enjoy ur day everyone!
