Me too. I so understand, I never ever cleaned as I created. Now usually mess is gone by the time completed. Nice feeling too.

Yesterday was my birthday. And the narcissist in my life (my own fault i know) started telling me how awful i am to him the day before my birthday, ignored me for most of my birthday, except to get what he wanted, then cut my very long (down to my butt) hair up to my shoulder blades. And he did it in such a way that i had to cut even more off to get it straightened out today. And i know its just hair from the outsideā¦but really it felt like one more thing to prove to me that he doesnt care. I quit smoking. Even though i am depressed and disappointed in myself for letting him back in emotionallyā¦and aloneā¦
I am sober
ā¦because its the main thread and i could probably go on for paragraphsā¦ i simplified it as best i could. But safe to say it hasnt been an easy couple of days

299 days sober.
No cravings and I drank A LOT before I quit.
I quit when I ended up in the hospital with severe internal bleeding. It was very touch and go. They contacted my next of kin and told them they should come to the hospital ASAP.

A rainy morning brought in a warm front, which turned into a beautiful day 
I napped with the rain(definitely needed it), then enjoyed spending all evening with my daughter. Good day

I got invited to a job interview so thatās good. Otherwise not much to say. Not much positive anyway. Although it could be much worse. Iām sober and clean which of course is a huge positive. Gives me the possibility to have as good a day as I can. So letās all do just that OK? Love.
@Dolse71 Big congrats on 1500 friend. ODAAT 
@Scorpn Quitting smoking is a tough one but youāre doing it. Itās a sign of self love. Keep extending that love for yourself. Slowly but steadily. Big hugs

Happy belated Birthday girl 
Iām sorry for what youāre going through Iāve been to narcissistic hell myself.
I waited far too long for that day to come. It came the day he moved out of my life(9 months after breaking up with him 
) Some advice that helped meā¦read up on narcissism. What they want. How to react(or not react) to them. Anything to give you an upper hand. You donāt have to play their games Please take care of yourself

Day 3 again, Iāve been trying to drink in a controlled manner for the last few months. I didnāt make it, of course. My problem is not to stop after 1 bottle of wine. Which is of course far too much and I can clearly feel it. But that I have to drink a bottle of wine every day. Like a compulsion. Iām not a binge drinker, but Iām definitely a regular drinker. I also lost track at parties or other events and got really drunk a few times.

Hoping youāll find this thread below helpful.
If you start drinking thereās an opt in thread area called āSeeking Helpā to post in if youāre under the influence. You opt in to use it. Others opt in to see it.
Congratulations on your 3 days!!

Welcome back Joyce. Itās really good to see you. And congrats on reaching day 3, thatās endlessly better than drinking a bottle of wine a day. Which, btw, in the longer run will turn into much more than that. Been there done that. So letās do this sober thing now. Together

Hormonally not good. This isnāt the thread for that, so Iāll spare you. Iām not in a good mood today and probably for five more days, so Iāll spare you. Iām angry and pissed off today. Angry at myself and the world.

Nice numbers @Seizetheday 
Well done for the 
days milestone 
Iām a little late to the party though.
And you too for the 
months @Tragicfarinelli
Milestones are motivational highlights in our recovery. At least for me.
And 
months for you @tailee17 and a proud husband, love it! 
Well done for the 
days clean @NewBeginning1 And @Dolse71 congratulations with your 
days, great numbers Paul!
Thatās difficult @Rookie I truelly hope you have planted a seed by questioning his drinking habits. Hope change is coming. Sorry about the backpain.
Good to hear from you @CaptAZ
Your post worries me @Scorpn Felt your words in my stomage. I think nobody needs a narcistic person in his life. Hope itās not as bad as it sounds to me 
Happy belated birthday though.
Day 2233 
Not in my best mood lately. Some relation issues between my hubby and me. Our communication is difficult, it has always been our weakness. We love eachother a lot but when there is some kind of irritation it easily grows out of proportions.
We try to work on that, but the both of us are still walking our own circles in this and so we are drifting apart a bit. Also miss our frequently walks because we used it to talk to eachother too and itās an activaty that bonds us. He is very busy and stressed because of work too so that isnāt helping and my head is in my plaster 
Hope we find our way out without hurting eachother more than we already did.
Picture of my favorite tree wich I havenāt seen for 2 months now
Tomorrow they will get the plaster off so I can try walking again.Today? Some house chores, lego building and reading. Tonight familynight with my kids.
Have a good day ore night all
