I can’t believe I forgot to check in this morning! So here I am on day 14… 2 weeks. Been hyperfocused on putting a quiet room together for myself. Just a place to escape. I gotta get things organized lol

I am so sorry for the depressive week you have had. Do hope that you can reach out for some in real life support and know that we are here for you too. Crying is ok - it can be very soothing. Isolating not so much - it can lead to a depressive black hole. Glad to hear that you are starting to lift out of this state. Hoping you do have the energy and motivation to see your plans through for the weekend

@Marit Of course I’ve noticed a consistent pattern where most struggle around this time, so I like to reassure that it does get better. It was a challenging couple of months for sure, but the only way around it was thru 
@Chevy55 Awe, so sorry for your loss 
That’s such a hard thing to have to do. Sending you strength to get thru this

Haven’t seen the sun for 3 days now. Cold, dark, and constant rain 
It really kept me down today. I slept later than I wanted, but still felt exhausted. I tried to shut my eyes for a bit before work, but couldn’t shut off my brain. Luckily it was a super lame Friday night. And it will be followed by a super lame Saturday afternoon. You wouldn’t think, but it’s the slowest day of the week for lunch. Not a fan of working them, so I’ll find something to keep myself busy. Anyway, hope you all have a good weekend

Day three of my holidays and beginning to feel as I should and would while away from work: more rested, more relaxed, a lot less stressed. We had a nice walk around town yesterday, doing some alternative sightseeing. Today there’s rain expected. We’ll see. Will do as we like. Will make today as good as we possibly can. One day at a time. Sober and clean and expect the same from all of you. Love from our walk.

Day 6 of my holiday here 
and finally finding some calm inner peace again.
480 days AF
Checking in, still sober, still learning.
Suffering is a part of life.
I need to learn to appreciate both darknss and and light.
Had a solid swim yesterday and a 3h yin yoga live class which was somehow refreshing, what I did not expect.
Being open for surprises

First Friday in a long time with no alcohol. You know what, it was easier than I thought! Tried to keep busy and spoke to a few people on the phone to occupy my brain but it feels good to wake up on a Saturday having slept well

Slept well, meeting was good, cloudy and rather rainy weather.
Going to attend the first communion celebration of a friend’s daughter today. Lots of socializing. A nap and some rowing later for relaxing.
Peace and love always

Day 7…feel about of a whirlwind of emotion. Personal life still a total mess. Feeling such a lack of stability I know that drinking won’t help but I also feel like I’ve done too much damage to fix.
How to stay positive to fix things when I feel ridiculously overwhelmed…
Have to put on a brave face for this wedding later too

Hope you’re keeping strong. Didn’t check in on your thread yesterday so been meaning to catch up. Crazy isn’t it how we just don’t see the shit coming our way, the warning signs are there but we choose to ignore them. Still, fighting the good fight now brother
