@twizzlers thank you friend. Hope you are having a good day today 
Way to go with your 1 week milestone. Glad you got through the appointment ā hope you are snuggled up watching movies now 
@brokenwolf WOW 850 days is amazing work! A beautiful message for new comers and alike. Always great to see you checking in.
@mrsodh oh I love the tradition with Easter Witches / Wizards. Any opportunity to get candy and dress up is a good time for me 
Oh wow ā thatās a lot of different languages in one household. Very impressive.
Super cool ā first thing I noticed in your post too. I am not good with dream analysis but always try to figure out my dream too. Most of the time I end up scratching my head LOL
@englishd A lot to gain from your post Derek. I am sorry for all the recent stress. Grateful to see all the tools you are utilizing to get you through the hard times. Hoping you start feeling more at ease with everything soon enough 
@chase.e.u Go on and bitch friend. Remember to apply First things Frist as you try to work on yourself and trying to get the place cleaned up. You are doing great with day 2 and I know you have the strength to keep going strong. Sobriety can be scary and that is why being around supportive people can help us not feel alone. Remember we are here for you as well. Hoping you have a great day
@whereswaldo Great work on 8 days and deciding to attack one thing at a time. It would all fall apart for me too if I tried to tackle it all at once. I lean very heavily on this app and the support it provides. I honestly could not have gotten this far without the advice and love I receive from here. Keep connected and working on your journey ā you will keep stacking up the days 
@lile01 Hope you were able to get out today and make yourself a lovely meal. It can take some time for our bodies to recover from the addictions ā each time we go back we tend to do more damage cause the disease is progressive and so dangerous. Glad you took time to get your rest. Hoping that you can get some nutrition into your body to help with regaining your energy. Do also consider if you are getting enough vitamins as I know for me if my Vitamin d is low I feel very fatigued. Sending love Indi.
@cleanheart WOOT WOOT 30 days aka 1 month Glad you are starting to feel better. It is hard for our loved ones to understand the disease and the recovery process if they have not gone through it themselves. Hopefully you can have an open conversation with your wife and your actions of remaining in your recovery will help her understand your side. Keep putting in the effort!
@wakikki oh love I am sorry for the anxiety / panic attacks. They really can be so damn scary. Have you been able to talk to a therapist again to see if they are able to help with these episodes? I can not remember if you had completed EMDR ā did that help? Sending you loads of love and healing vibes. I am hoping you are able to do some deep breathing to help. Oh I do love the box breathing that Twizzler sent
Checking in on Tuesday morning
Still waiting on the damn CT results. Grateful that my meditation has given me some positivity to hold onto. Trying not to focus on the pain and just keep breathing through it. I am so very happy that the electricity and gas was turned on yesterday and we got the ok from city and health department to reopen today. OOF- itās been a week from hell but we all made it through it.
Its a beautiful day to be alive! Wishing everyone a wonderful addiction free day /evening - sending you all so much love

Yeah it really is. And always in my touhgts if the shit is going down or ājustā anxiety fucking me up. But Im still alive, we watched the film to the end, and I really liked the film, even being tensed as hell doing my wierd ocd stuffā¦
And I did the breathing box @Twizzlers sent, I really appriciate it
I did start EMDR, but then everything else in my life needed me to put myself aside. I asked to have my normal appoinment with my psychiatrist next week, and will pick up EMDR when things are more manageable around me.
I have been thinking about you and hope you have been all good, with the fire and your health/pain stuff, we both know how hard it can be, but I have to say I admire how you cope

Hey you guys
These last weeks I have zero motivation 
I go to work, I eat, I get the kids ready when I have them, and do the things I need to do for them to have everything they needā¦but I just looove my bed lately I feel good, I love life, I dont have any cravings, I eat and over sleep a lil my boyfriend is worried he thinks I sleep too much, and I understand that when I sleep we get less time together ( he doesnt complain about anything, he doesnt mind if I sleep, he is just worried for my health)
I was just wondering if any of you go through this too, and what do you do to get your motivation back up?!
Almost a year sober from alcohol and speedā¦11 months weed free in two days and almost 7 months without a cigaretteā¦and you guys I am feeling sooooo freaking good!!!

Iām having a wave of early sobriety today. Feeling really off. Was a decent day, I got things done, just very fatigued and sad for some reason. Lonely. Hard to think straight. It seems to come out of nowhere. Felt great this morning. I think itās just normal.
Threw together a quick, healthy supper. Good night to read here. I want to just be immersed in my safe space, TS! I made some green tea. 
Started reading some stories here. Great stuff. Want to drive the point home. I forget. Time passes and I start to think maybe it wasnāt that bad. It was. It always will be. I have to accept that wonāt change.
Chin up and in the tub. 
no not a chin in the tub, chin up while in the tub . 
I gotta ride this out but I can read about recovery. I can write. Meditate. Anything as long as I donāt drink. Till I fall asleep. Thank you for being so kind and supportive.

Thank you Twizzlers. Appreciate you stopping by!
Yes, itās probably just my brain trying to sort itself out and itās uncomfortable. It comes and goes. I had a good soak and am here to read. Iām proud of you too.

Checking in on a beautiful day. My son and I are home from the hospital! So grateful. Im soooo excited to have a shower that actually has some water pressure and a good sleep on a real bed. Im so looking forward to supper (I asked hubby to make KD with hotdogs and bacon in it) lol Sounds lame but I wanted comfort food. Not much else to report right now. Just really taking it easy. Have a good night everyone!
