Day 432 A(bsolute)F(reedom)
Well, third times a charm maybe for bloodwork. Showed up at hospital and once again I booked appt at wrong oneā¦ Drat!!
So a week Thurs is bloodwork, and I was putting off my hamburger and fries meal no longer.
Met son for our late lunch/early dinnerā¦ and OMG was it so delicious 
Now that Iāve got that out of my system, itās back on the train. Doing some vacuuming then wash floors before a good Back/Bicep/shoulder workout later this morning.
Oh, and wash the stinky dog bedsā¦ smelly!
Love the house smelling all clean and shit!
Rock your day peeps!!

very very quick check in day 19 of no video games and day 0 of no bottom-line internet use.
Todayās (almost 12 hours) youtube shorts relapse taught me something very valuable which is that I have very little tolerance for discomfort, mild negative emotions, boredom, distress, etc because for my entire adult life I have been numbing or squashing those feelings with entertainment/stimulus from screens.
Fortunately this is something I can develop more tolerance for with practice (I need to save up for that DBT workbook faster) although it will be difficult and obviously uncomfortable.
Itās amazing how far my recovery has come that I no longer feel like a relapse is proof that Iām a useless awful lazy human being but instead I am able to take a step back and go āok, what triggered that? What can I do about that trigger in the future?ā
Take care today, everyone! Work on your recovery plans, be a guardian angel for your future self! (Geez that may be too cheesy sorry, Iām just feeling hopeful!)

Today is is 6 months no marijuana. No THC no CBD no weed at all
6 months ago, I woke up sober. It was a usual day. I had the day off from work I believe just like today. The evening came and I started with CBD. I took my first dose, waited and nothing of course. I donāt even have pain in the 1st place. So I took more and more. Each dose getting bigger. Then I remember looking at my wife and I said itās that time. She knew exactly what I meant because I always said that when I wanted to get high on THC. She was hesitant because she knows how I get but I wasnāt convinced at the time I got bad ever time. To me I thought it was mind over matter. It is never that easy for me. She said one hit and of course I take like 3 cuz I want to make sure I was high then when when I was done she put it away. Then I told her I wanted more and thats when there was a big fight and I almost got kicked out. Iām not ready to talk about that part yet
But
Thatās the beginning of that story
Hopefully put in my past
One day at a time

Donuts and pastries are the nipples of food, and so posting in the foodies thread can protect eating disorder recovery.
Also hello, glad to see you back.

Iām slowly getting to a year nic free
I didnāt know I could do it till I did
I smoked since I was 13 years old heavy heavy. I did 4mg gum, 4mg loszengs
4mg loszengs
Then 2mg loszengs for like 6 months
Having someone to hold you accountable helps
I live with 2 military nurses lolā¦I also wrote my numbers nic free on a chalk board till I reached 125 days
Now Iām 312 days nic free
Totally worth it as my body is stilllllllll healing
