Day 100. So this last week or so has taught me a lot. Last Wednesday I went to a meeting 45 miles away from home to support a friend. During the meeting a woman started speaking and I shut down because I was judging her she didn’t seem as clean as she was saying so I immediately started judging her in my head. When she started speaking. I heard my story come out of her mouth and was blown away by how similar our path has been. Then last night at a meeting a guy walked in that I at one point wanted to beat down for things he did to my sister. He sat right next to me. It took everything I had to be nice lol. When I got home last night I reflected on both of these things and how my higher power is testing me. The one thing that kept popping in my mind is principles over personality.

Try to think positive just because the day starts with dark thoughts doesn’t mean it’s has to stay that way, wishing you well

These people are probably beating themselves up more than you know we can’t judge anyone I know I can’t as I’ve done some very shameful things but I had to draw a line under it and move forward and forgive myself, resentment is a path back to addiction

I agree and I hate that I still have this defect but its something I am definitely working on. Progress not perfection.

Day 1784 alcohol
Day 1 binge eating

Today I’m starting to stop binge eating which seems to really creeping in to my life for awhile now I found myself going to bed last night with a pot noodle and a multi pack of Kit Kats :person_facepalming:t2: , I see similarities in it till the I drank so it’s something I really need to take a look at in depth I also need to start doing my shopping just after I eat so I don’t buy a lot of crap I don’t need
Anyway hope everyone has a good day :wave:

Day 125
Second check in.
Just need to complain a bit, first word problems, but it always is. :laughing:

Had my usual breakfast banana today, felt a bit strange, felt more strange after a while. And eventually had to visit the doctors office, just to find out that I’m currently allergic to banana.

Doctor says it might be temporary because there’s so much pollen outside. And that type of pollen can make you react to bananas as well.

Not sure what to do If I can’t eat banans anymore. I’ve always loved them, and I’ve been eating one for breakfast for years.

If things could go my way for a little bit, that would be great, thanks in advance universe :joy:

6 years 8 months. Lately it feels like I’m having to really earn each day. Luckily my partner and I are taking our 2 year anniversary trip to Maine tomorrow. Definitely need to get away for a bit. Pretty blessed to be able to travel, even when other things feel hard.

Checking in on Day 12

Our little guy is one heck of a night ninja maybe he’s nocturnal :joy: he’s doing pretty good we think it’s just a sleep regression but he’s wide awake at 3 am.
My wife has been really supportive and an amazing mother. I enjoy sitting with them more than ever the time is more enjoyable memorable and meaningful sober. My wife and I have a couple things that we’re thinking of doing on the fourth. i forgot that I took the fifth off a couple months ago so I’ll have a four day weekend :sunglasses: I can’t wait! My med doctor put me on a new anxiety med but it’s out of stock in town.

I fell asleep before I could post oops
Have a happy Tuesday everyone!!

Chaotic morning so far with my mom shouting at me about her delusions. Still have to get ready for work while simultaneously hiding from her. Hope its a quick easy day at work and that I can enjoy the rest of my day after that.

Hope everyone is doing well.

Congratulations on 100 days. Meetings are educational for sure. I have been attending for over a year now. There is one I dreaded when they shared. Now I actually look forward to hear what is going on in their life. Have a nice day.
