This really struck a cord with me. The times Iāve been present but not present when my kids have needed me. I know Iām only day 7 but Iām done with all that shitā¦Iām embracing the negative to move on with the positives. I could do with a punch in the face too nowā:joy: Well done on your 148 days and thanks ![]()

@wahtisnormal Huge Congrats on two weeks! You are building a really nice streak here ![]()
Well done on your two weeks and getting your sleep in!![]()
Long bike ride done, not easy for a heavy smoker but had an awesome time, have a great day everyone
Day 1 started, resetting counter every single day right in the morning for almost 15 days already. Itās so f⦠hard! I had sober cycles, always learned something new about me and addiction after each relapse. I try to fool myself I live a very healthy life and eat smart but I know that with alcohol during nights itās just a wasted effort. And I stopped doing sports after last relapse so that I donāt hurt my heart so much. Anyways, stopped excuses, have been working quite hard to get to this stage and I wonāt f⦠it up this time. Please send me some supportive energy and share some nice words, thank you and wishing you all the best in your journeys.
Congrats on a hangover free sunday and a week down!!

1356 days no alcohol.
821 days no cocaine.
336 days no vape.
1 days no binge-eating.
I felt too ashamed to check-in with a 0 on my counter on Friday evening, so Iām checking-in now with yesterdayās numbersā¦
I did make it through most of Friday, but when the ice cream van came round at 5pm, I couldnāt stop myself, then before I knew it Iād been to the shop and was bingeing my way through copious amounts of sugary foods, 3 big bags of crisps, and 2 bottles of coca-cola with sugar in. ![]()
No more ice creams. No more local shops. No more takeaways. No more binge-eating.
Having all that sugar in my system has triggered a flare up of pain and fatigue, so Iām just managing that as best I can.
My dad cleared out his garage recently and I now have 3 big boxes full of photos from before my mum passed away. I havenāt been able to bring myself to look through them yet. I guess Iām scared of the feelings that may come up.
Iāve been reading a lot. Iāve managed to watch some TV in the lounge. Iāve been catching-up on meditations, and now Iāve caught-up here, which always feels good.
I hope youāre all having wonderful sober weekends. ![]()

@Bunto welcome back
congrats on day 1
sending strength š©µ
I live in a country that is very corrupt. It doesnāt matter what is legal or illegal when all you need to do to get out of trouble is pay a bribe. I hate seeing anyone mistreated especially kids but unfortunately I see it every day and in a way have become desensitized to it. Iāll never be used to it but it no longer shockes me when I see it happening. It definitely makes me angry and upset to see. Unfortunately the behavior I mentioned which I know isnāt right is considered culturally normal and is widely accepted as okay. ![]()
Hey Bunto, great work being here! Very brave making that first step. Maintain accountability by posting on here daily. When those cravings are hitting in the afternoon, get on here. Get through that first day with us and focus on the next with us!
Checking in sober. Man i havent been able to sleep the past couple of days. Just getting 5hrs of sleep. Hopefully iāll get better sleep tonight. But ive been productive so far: reasearch for work, updated 2 months of my budget, cleaning my email boxes, caught up here, contemplated my 2yr sober share for my ladies meeting, and its only 630am. Today is going to be a good day
@CATMANCAM thank you ![]()
@Whereswaldo thank you, good thought appreciate it
@Twizzlers Wow, that sounds rough! Hope you feel better soon.
@MrsOdh Congratulations ![]()

@Butterflymoonwoman Iām not surprised, I would be completely unable to do anything on that much sleep. I really hope you can catch a break soon.
Day 1356
Weekend of nice weather, so we had a BBQ today. My daughterās friend joined, and it was simple but yummy, and enough leftovers that I only needed to make some instant ramen at night. My husband had a couple of beers, glad I am in a place where I donāt feel any fomo at all. Had some nice grape juice with the kids, and ice cream after and that was more than enough.
