Checking in daily to maintain focus #76

@lighter Hope you were able to rest up today and are able to get back to drinking proper coffee tomorrow :hugs: Hope your mouth is also healing well :pray:
@mrmoustache WOW! Congrats on your 3 weeks AF and having a successful moving in day. So happy to hear about the supportive place you are in and that you have someone available if you do feel your mental health slipping. Very excited for you - keep up the amazing work on your journey!
@blankspot987 YIPPEE!! :clap: :tada: So awesome friend – congrats on your new job!
@ts66 Sorry to hear about the flu. Do get your rest and take care of yourself. Hope you feel better soon :pray: :hugs:

This is scary and unfortunately the longer you are sober the more your mind tries to convince you that you are cured or that you didn’t really have a problem.. these are all lies. I had to find other ways to “unwind” remind myself that having that drink didn’t really calm anything down – it fucked up my sleep, it made me sick, it made me anxious and the problems that I was trying to run away from were all still there when I got sober enough to deal with them. Also maybe reduce your workload at work and at home – you need some downtime where you can relax and rejuvenate. We really do work ourselves to the bone and that is not a healthy way to live. Keep fighting the good fight :muscle:

What course is not working? At work, home, or sobriety? Sending you hugs as you find your way. 647 days is an incredible journey – just keep putting your sobriety first!
@vanessa8 Enjoy your spring break trip! So excited to see you closing in on your soberversary! Look forward to celebrating with you soon.
@bunto whats going on? Are you ok since you posted?
@canadiangirl Sorry to hear about your daughter. Grateful that you are sober and clear headed to help her with what she may need. Hope that you are able to find the help for her :hugs:

Checking in on Tuesday night
832 days free of alcohol and weed
1247 days free of cigarettes
Today just flew by. I feel like I am working so hard on my PT with the swimming and trying to walk when I am able but the inflammation is just getting so much worse. Not complaining - i’m sure it will all work itself out. I had a decent day. Got to play some cards with my brother after he stopped laughing at me. He found my bed head look with my new cut super funny. Gotta love siblings.
Enjoying a relaxing evening now just watching No Good Deed and catching up here.
Wishing everyone a wonderful addiction free day / evening - sending you all so much love :heart: :heart:
