Day 290. Another check in
I think part of being sober for me has also been about reflecting generally on my life and some decisions and almost a grieving process. I canā€™t count the number of times as a student I was slaughtered as thatā€™s what we didā€¦ Or clubbingā€¦ Then the married scene of drinking socially. Then when celebrating or commiserating
Just always alcohol involved. Culturally itā€™s so prevalent and crap

I am checking in on Day 192.
I am struggling. My beloved kitty that I raised by hand since she was 3 weeks old has terminal cancer and will I will be saying goodbye to her this Friday.
My heart is crushed!
Yes, I have dealt with losing many petā€™s but this one is particularly hard. She was born on our property and she will be buried on our property.
I want a fucking drink!! I am sad, angry, lost.
The only thing stopping me from chugging a bottle of Vodka is that I am prepping for a Colonoscopy on Thursday. Who knew THAT would be something that would be of help! But, Iā€™ll be thankful and stick with it.
I canā€™t make any promises after the procedure tho. Hope to hell I can stay strong and not have that drink.

Oh shit, Iā€™m really sorry to hear about your cat :crying_cat_face: Iā€™m sure she lived a good life though at least :slight_smile:

Definitely keep pushing through, I think having a drink will make you feel even more shitty. You got this homie!!! Reach out whenever you need :slight_smile:

So sorry about the kitty. Please stay strong after your colonoscopy. Your kitty wouldnā€™t want to be the reason why you relapse. Iā€™m pretty sure. May you find comfort!

Iā€™m so sorry to hear youā€™re going to have to say goodbye to your kitty. Iā€™ve done the same many times over the years (always had cats) and feel your pain.

Please please decide right now that youā€™re not going to drink. The moment we chink open that door as a possibility the darned addict will leap through it. Can you arrange something for after youā€™ve said goodbye to keep you occupied, in company, sober? Sending strength
