@Pavlovs_Dog you are most welcome friend. Here you are among fellow addicts who are familiar with what you are going through. No judgement here and a whole lot of support. SO many threads to read through to get advice and great for distractions. Honestly, I was shocked like you to have found this place. Never would have thought that an online group would be so helpful and supportive. I am sorry to hear about your friends. Take your time to heal – we are here for you. 
I do find the Daily Gratitude, The Air Of Recovery #5 thread to be a life savor – practicing daily gratitude’s has helped me see the world differently.
@nomad620 great work on 1 week of sobriety Kayla! 
@catmancam so sorry that the depression is overwhelming. Sending you loads of positive energy. Hoping that your SAD lamp and hopefully daily walks will help. Here for you friend

Huh - liking the 3’s and 8’s with the timers. I started off the day very foggy with a headache. Managed to get a lot of errands done. Came home around 3 and then crashed hard. Not feeling great and the pain level is high. My brother spilled some beer accidentally and good lord the smell triggered an urge. Luckily i had some yummy tangerines to nosh on instead (lol - never would i have thought in a million years that fruit would cut a craving). I am exhausted so hopefully will be able to sleep soon and throughout the night.
All right my sober friends - wishing everyone a wonderful addiction free evening / day - sending you all so much love
