What a great inspiring wonderful share. I love these stories. Iām so happy for you and that you popped in to tell us. One of the best things I that I heard on TS is protect that sober date at all cost!! Thatās what youāre doing. Keep that shit up and enjoy life on lifeās terms.
Thank you friend! You are one of the ones who was there and helped pull me through at the beginning! How are you doing? I hope all is well. Iāll always have a place for you in my heart and memories jazzy!!! Thank you for being such a great friend!
I did it!
I successfully stayed alcohol free while visitingā¦
LAS VEGAS

Day 5 is here! Iām still feeling really great and motivated. Iāve been getting a lot done lately, but try to remind myself to slow down when I need to. Itās always been hard to listen to my body, but Iām trying. Less coffee, less nictotine, no drinking and taking things in stride- without obsessing over any of it. So far, itās been a really nice combination that eases daily stress. Writing is helping a lot too. I find myself having small epiphanies throughout the day and I write them down when I can. I hope everyone is having a great day today!
Day 242 gambling free. Iāve started dating my daughterās father a.k.a. my ex again last year and now weāre looking into moving in together. Today we went to see one apartment and weāre thinking of taking it. This is a big step for me and Iām really excited. Looking forward to this new (and old) chapter.
Checking in day 35. Sun is shining. Power is still out. Still managed to work but now my laptop is out if juice. Going to get out and get some fresh air.
Day 64
It was a long day. Spent a couple of hours in the hospital with my parents.
I was looking at my dad from a distance, an old man sitting in the waiting room and I felt so incredibly sad. All the attention was aimed at my mother, but we sort of forget my dad.
After hospital I had to rush to the office for a completely senseless meeting and after a commute through hell Iām finally home. Once in a while I hate my job.
Tomorrowās another busy day with work and an appointment at the notary. The weekend already feels like a distant memoryā¦
Iām gonna lay on the couch with the dog and watch a brainless show. I am done for today. Good thing is Iād normally have wine after a day like this, but I donāt have any cravings
I hope your a feeling a bit better today. Continue to push through. I can really relate to.how you feel that things get worse when your sober. Itās not that they get worse itās just we or at least for me see the unmanageablity that my life has become from being in active addiction for so long. We are finally feeling out feelings which can be at first.
Use your tools that you are learning, sharing and posting here is a good start. Lots of self care and take it slowly. Remind yourself why you decided to go on this journey of recovery in the first place. We are here for you. You can do this!
Reading through others recovery journeys and experiencing the miracle of soberity for countless others you see that life becomes so much better sober and this journey is so worth it.
Yes, that looks a bit like the environment I walk most of the time. We have some nature close by that used to be farmland but they gave it back to nature 20 years ago. I hope you had a great walk
