Day 419. Not much is new, my one year at work is right around the corner. Some days i seriously hate my job, some days i dont mind it. Mostly alot of what i dislike is laziness in other workers and the lack of care on screwing eachother over…but otherwise grateful. Much love

278 days sober
I love my job but hate the bookkeeping part. I’m trying to get the end of year/start of year reports finished. And getting all the documents and paperwork in order. Definitely not my favorite job to do but I’m hoping to get it finished this week.
Maybe one day I’ll get used to this part of my job…

Another day done, just the evening to get through but this is my personal danger zone so I’m checking in here and spending time with you guys to stay safe 
Love getting back into my books, and getting some proper rest, but I also feel a bit of energy coming back so will need to find other things to occupy me. One day at a time though.
Stay strong everyone x

it’s 18:30 here and my day is also almost gone… I baked a focaccia and now I’m sitting here, only 4 more hours and it’s time for bed.
I multitask, I’m having a snack, playing a game, chatting and hanging out here. That keeps my mind busy, exactly what I need.

Day 563. Work ok. Feeling a bit more into work again. Enjoying not drinking over Christmas and new year . I feel a much better person, even if maybe alot less social . All okay. It will be 18 months sober in a few weeks , but the main thing is i feel better without alcohol and living a quieter life.

Same… I tend to start searching for something to occupy my time but not activate the hyperfocus if that makes sense. I spend most of those times on here jamming to my sober playlist lol. You’ll get there🩷🩷

It’s really nice to see you checking in especially when you’re feeling super challenged.
Here for support for you.
Im glad the thought of using is not even in your mind.
Hope that the children have gotten back in school, that your weather is not too awful, and that you’ll soon be employed.
Consider the grounding exercises, possibly they could help with the feeling like you’re floating away.

I emailed my boss today and asked for a salary/performance review, which was nerve-wracking. Haven’t heard back yet. I’ve been there 21 months and haven’t had one yet. On Thursday I have to get a urine and blood test for life insurance. I hope they don’t find anything! One thing for certain is there will be no substanes in my urine so for that I am grateful. I am curious about my A1C since I have tested as pre-diabetic in the past and hope it is still “pre”. We will see. Nothing I can change by worrying, but of course I am still worried! Hopefully things have improved in the last year with diet changes and more exercise. Kids went back to school today. Nothing much else. Have a good day/evening!

Anyone have advice on whether or not I should request a new therapist? Let me explain why I ask. So I am a person who is very aware of things that I need (therapy focused) and I’ve been coaching my therapist on what I’d like to work on because she has a little bit of a hard time keeping on topic. I try to be firm but calm with her because she jumps from topic to topic even after I’ve told her exactly what my goal for therapy is. Therapists have to ask in their first session with a new client what their client would like to focus on. When my therapist asked, I told her I would like to work less on trauma and more on working through emotions surrounding having a job. Quick background about my work history, I haven’t worked in 3 years now and that’s because I am extremely hard on myself. Every time there’s a new shift that I’m scheduled for, I spend the entire day before anticipating every possible bad thing that can happen, some scenarios even ending with me hurt or dead. Yes, I understand it’s irrational but it’s very difficult to be aware of that in the moment that I’m thinking about it. So, that’s why I want to work about it in therapy. So, I’ve explained this to my new therapist (I’ve had her since September) and she is a GREAT listener, don’t get me wrong, but unfortunately she struggles to challenge my thoughts and ideas which is what I had originally asked her to do. I’m not trying to make my therapist sound bad because she’s very kind and empathetic but she has such a hard time focusing on just this topic. So we don’t get as far as I’d hoped to by now. I am so beyond TERRIFIED to get a job and I need her support as well as a little tough love. Im just not sure if my expectations are too high or how to proceed. The thought of having a job right now sky rockets my anxiety. I want to work in this so much but I’m trying really hard to push my therapist and I don’t think she’s understanding. What should I do?
