@Button83 those dreams are awful, but when youāre still sober in them, like Laura, I like to think itās sobriety getting into your subconscious
@JazzyS thank you Iām so sory about your intense pain, donāt try to do too much too soon š©µ

@MeSober congrats on 40 days
1303 days no alcohol.
768 days no cocaine.
283 days no vape.
28 days no binge-eating.
Slept only 1-3am last night.
Went to therapy. I talked about how depressed I have been feeling, and she thought I should speak to my doctor, so I guess Iāll do that tomorrow if heās working. We also discussed how I can communicate and assert my boundaries, I struggled to think of how I can word things, I tried but she kept saying I was giving to much room for debate, so she helped me with that.
Read quite a lot of the new book about decluttering. It isnāt making the task seem any less overwhelming! Iāve followed up my initial contact form with an email to one of the companies. I did hear back from one of them, but they are fully booked.
Had a migraine, probably due to the lack of sleep. Layed down in the dark and ended up napping for 2.5hrs until Wolfie woke me up for their dinner.
The social anxiety got the better of me re the bowling, the more I thought about my last experience, the worse it got. So I made the decision not to go. Itās pretty loud in there too, so it was also partly because I still had a migraine.
Now Iāve caught up here. Always a good way to end the day.

Slept better. Needed it too as work is busy and I have two days of nursing ahead after yesterdays experience expertise work day. Which was nice but also intense. Now itās back to injections and intakes and rules and regulations. Which does feel a little bit constraining at times since Iāve started as an experience worker as well. But I still like both jobs. One day at a time.
Have as good a day as you all can friends. Sober and clean. Love.
Congrats on 15 days! Letās keep on pushing.

Definitely had more motivation today. It was still really nice out all afternoon. I managed to get the laundry done and got home right when it started sprinkling. Good thing too bc then it really started pouring. I planned on making dinner but my daughter said she was really hungry right when we got to the laundry mat so we ate next door. I realized I should do this every time bc since I didnāt have to worry about dinner when we got home, I actually folded and put everything away! That almost never happens in the same day. Or week Well, gonna wind down for bed. Have a great one!
Sameā¦closing the month is such a crazy time in accounting. I do it for a commercial construction business, I totally get the month end crazies!!!
OMG!!! Iām so jealous!!! Iād love to see them play live. I hope you have an amazing time.
Thank you, Iām sure it will be amazing
@CATMANCAM Hope your migraine is doing better. Migraines and noise donāt mix well. I would have skipped bowling too.
@Tomek Sounds like youāre moving towards freedom. That does sometimes feel exhausting and frightening.
@Just_Laura Laundry seems to be a recurring theme on this thread
@Mno A āboringā routine is sometimes just the right thing.

Still exhausted. Iām spending most of my day in a brain fog right now. Have not felt so shitty in a long time: headache, nausea, vertigo, all kinds of not so well. My body is obviously going through some changes here and this too will pass.
I hope to get some design work done today. Should I feel up to it there are still some groceries to be done. Otherwise naps, video games, tv.
However your day may be, sending you peace, kindness and freedom
Iām here, Iām alive and Iām sober.
Day 7.
No exercise today. Hurt my leg yesterday while cleaning the yard and getting things to the city dump. Nothing serious, just a light muscle injury, still hurts enough for me not to exercise for a few days. Doc said itāll pass in a few weeks.
However it was a good thing. The ER that weāre supposed to go to (Itās decided in regions here) closed last summer. I thought I was lucky getting hurt while the local doctorās office was still open. Because we have more than an hour, one way drive to the ER weāre supposed to go to nowdays.
Our local doctorās office refused to take me, because it was an ER thing according to them. So I got upset about it,called the doctors office in the neighbor village. They would gladly take men so I re-listed there. (You have to get listed at a doctors office to get any help at all, and you usually choose the one in your village because itās close ans easy access)
Went to see the doctor. She read in my journals, asked me about life in general after she checked my leg. I told her Iām trying to stay sober again (donāt know why, but it felt necessary)
She said that my old doctor was wrong and that I can eat as many bananas as I like because thatās nothing really wrong with my health. And you need to eat more than 10 bananas a day for it to affect your heart. And as long as it isnāt all I eat, Iāll be just fine.
And said sheāll get me all the help I need to stay sober. If I want any help, and we booked a follow up meeting next week.
So today Iām going to buy bananas, havenāt eaten them for weeks because my old doctor said I shouldnāt. And itās been hard, Iām not sure I can live without bananas
Had a dream about drinking wine as well,but it wasnāt that bad. Didnāt wake up with a craving, but with a feeling that Iām glad it was a dream.
Wishing yāall a great day.
Day 36
Back in the apartment and sleeping bad. Need to find my eye maskā¦ Anyway, need to make the best of it, when I am here. Will be back at our house at the weekend.
Start the day now and will have a 4 hour session at the thermalbath and sauna soon.
Take care
*Day 1995
Glad spring is trying to chime in. I hate the winter, it affects my mood. So I wrestle myself trough it with a daylight lamp, vitamin D and a serotonin booster supplement and a walk in nature here ore there.
Blue skies make me happy and if I feel the warmth of the sun on my face it makes my day! Little things maybe. But I appreciate the little things more then I used to I guess.
Today? Work and maybe a walk before it.
Have a good day ore night all
