It is difficult when the family is not perhaps all feeling the same or on the same page. We all come to our understandings or realizations of things at a different rate. I am wishing you guys the best through it. Xo.

Day 73. Boy yesterday was a stressful one, started out rough. Headed for my pre employment thing at 8, got there and dropped my phone and smashed my screen, honestly was a little mad but carried on. Then on my way back from there my bike started acting up and my rear hub was freezing up. Just felt like a long day, im stressed bc I need a good bike to get to work . But I had a good one on one with my counselor, heās proud of me and sees lots of growth I told him about the girl and how Iām acting and he said itās normal thinking and behavior I just need to work harder on getting through the thoughts, itās kinda like addiction the more I get through it the better it will be. One of the girls left me a nice note yesterday saying good bye and it was nice to meet me, it was cute and very nice. At work today and it was another rainy day. I got super soaked and it definitely sucked, rainy days riding suck lol. Some of the girls saw me without my beard this morning and they said OMG 
i was like yeah I know, lmao. I look like the wish version of Shrek without a beard 
. Yeah I am just a little stressed, I need reliable transportation to work, I tried to finance a e bike online. Something more reliable with better components, but they want 3,000 down on the bike and I certainly donāt have that. Kinda sucks, but Iāll try to save up. Idk much love everyone

Good morning sober fam,
Idk if you guys know but i grew sober with this TS community and Alcoholics Anonymous. Last night was a very lovely ladies only meeting. I really wanted to share but it was a big group so the opportunity didnt arise. Id like to share here:
The topic was: a) apparently there was a 60min episode about an ultrasound zap to the brain that can stop addictionā¦ b) resentments and forgiveness
Lots of AA birthdays yesterday. I love celebrating milestones because they give me and others hope as well as encourage those in early sobriety to keep at it.
Itād be great if we could zap our brains to rid us of our addictive thinking but i am greatful i got sober with AA. i feel i learned so much and gained so much character from hitting my lowest, surrendering, attending meetings and finding commonalities, finding a sponsor, working the 12 steps, and doing service work. The 12 step promises really have come true for me as im working my recovery.
20+ months ago i was a broken, obese, hopeless, resentful, unemployed addict. All i was doing was drinking excessively, vomitting on the regular, and sleeping. I wasnt living.
20months on into my recovery i am filled with gratitude that i am an alcoholic. Im not proud of my past but putting this work into my recovery has given me a newfound love for living. I have hope again and more moments of serenity.
For fucks sake i found an awesome job (which was a better fit), i was promoted, i took control of my health and lost 90lbs, i saved so much money that im about to travel to coasta rica next week for a 12 day adventure sponsored by the blessing of aa and recovery.
Life isnt perfect or easy but by putting in as much time into recovery work as i was dedicating to drink, drink, drinking has paid dividends.
If youre early in your journey, find your sober community and accountability. Thank you all for sharing your journies with me and allowing me to share with you.
Sobriety is my super power

Day 712
The awake overnight shift with my son was long. But its over now. Currently drinking a hot latte that i made while my son is having his breakfast and then we will get him ready for his half day of school. I really should be sleeping once he gets on the bus but i want to workout and then run an errand. Maybe do some laundry also. Idk. I AM tired tho. The overnights (just being awake all night) used to trigger me alot as it reminded me of not sleeping due to drugs. Grateful I dont associate the overnight shifts with drugs anymore. Thats progress Anyway, have a great day everyone!
