@zzz congrats on your 1 week of sobriety. Keep stacking up the days
@chase.e.u So good to see you checking in friend. Glad you were able to talk with someone yesterday and will be meeting up with someone tonight. Like others have said β connection is key for our sober journey and so important if you are feeling lonely / depressed. 9 months feels like a long time now but with all the work you are putting in for yourself β the time will fly by. We are here for you as well β you are able to get through this time
@lotusflower lovely to see you checking in with your amazing days! Hope that you are able to feel better soon and get back to the gym / yoga as I do find that movement really does wonders for our bodies and minds.
@lighter Glad you are staying connected here and working up a good plan for tomorrow night. Remember that we are always available if you need someone to talk to. Have an exit plan if needed so you are not stuck there if the urges get too much. Call ahead to see what they have to offer as far as 0% alcohol drinks or mocktails. You will be celebrating 70 days Marie β you are stronger than the addiction and we got your back
YES! Way to go with day 3 friend. That pesky addict voice will forever try to sneak in and make it seem ok to pick up βjust that oneβ. Unfortunately, itβs never just the one. WE get sucked into the dark hole and who knows how many times we will be able to crawl back out of it. Way to go on setting up new routines and changing up your thinking β upwards and onwards
@thirdmonkey Oh man I loved the line βAs a drunk I would work to hide from life. Now, It bothers me when work takes away from life.β So true β so much we missed out on when we were deep in addiction. Grateful to be free and enjoying the beauties of life.
@K_S sending healing vibes your way β hope your MIL will recover from whatever she is dealing with and grateful that you are able to be there for her and your family
@kvee Congrats on your 2+ months of sobriety. Glad to see you stacking up the days
@danwood85 Sorry about your tense day. You do have a loaded schedule this week. I know I get short nerved when I am overwhelmed and lack sleep. Great work on holding back the rage and getting your point across. Check out the Conglomerated List of βThings that can Fck right off (Part 2) thrad β let out some of your frustrations here (it does help to type it out and let it out in the universe rather than hold it in).
@chevy55 Glad that work is getting better for you and you are enjoying it more. Grateful to read your check in β Happy, sober and full of energy β keep going strong my friend
@falloutsign Great work Dani! 1 week milestone is impressive work β grateful to be here celebrating it with you tonight.
