Here at work
It’s actually going ok
I’ve been taking my meds when I get home from work instead of the early morning. It helps my belly a lot and my mornings are more comfortable.
Today will be a good day I believe
Saturday morning, up before the birds again. Nothing planned today which it is ok. Maybe deep clean something. But the one thing I know is that won’t pick up. Happy sober Saturday everyone. Go get the day
Your post just boosted me up man
I can relate so much
A second job for me for my family is in my future I believe
Stay strong
Thank you for your shere
@Kareness oh I’m sorry love ..hope you are able to settle the issue without insurance or at least not have your insurance go up 
.
Enjoy your restful weekend…look forward to celebrating with you next week 
Lol…bro would love that. I’m highly allergic. Glad to know they don’t mess with you while you sleep…this part was what I was freaked out about. It is so unfortunate that you can’t control it all. You did what you needed and why in a million years would you think she was going in your mom’s phone for this? Ugh…if not your mom’s then a friend’s or now you can make these accounts in the net without a phone. Just have to show her the dangers of it all and hope she listens/ understands.. sending love and support and loads of strength 
Great work and we know it’s daily work… great to see you leading with such an example 
Lol… grateful it evaporated as quickly as it came. Wish we could keep these reminders with us at all times. Save and hopefully dry travels home
This is great…it is all about rewiring the brain and making new associations with daily tasks and living. Keep going strong
@Kra welcome to the community and a great job on your 20 days! Your body and mind are still in detox. Each time we relapse our body makes adjustments and then the detox takes longer and gets harder. It won’t last…Grateful to have you hear with us…keep hanging on…the rough hangover feeling days will be over soon. The benefits of sobriety are worth fighting for
Yes! Especially needed during these times to keep you connected to your journey. Our addiction is sly and awaits it’s moment to sneak in when we let out guards down…don’t let it.
@Blankspot987 great work Anthony. Do remember to take care of yourself as well. Hard work and feeling accomplished and being there for your family is wonderful 
@Christophe well done on your 2 weeks. Great to see you thriving in your journey. Remember to reach for support when you feel the emotions running high…we are learning to live life in life’s terms but we don’t have to do it alone
Checking in on Saturday morning
Well it’s a beautiful day. Feeling a bit run down and cramping on top of everything. Will take it easy and do simple tasks around the house. For now it’s coffee and breakfast.
Wishing everyone a wonderful addition free day… sending you all so much love 
Day 1315
Morning check in 
Happy Saturday everyone!! Hope everyone is doing well!
I am doing alright today. Just got into work. Its going to be a busy shift today. My client does go home but the supervisor wants us to do a deep cleaning of the interior and exterior of the house. So cleaning is my job today lol
I am feeling a bit better about things. Ive been praying every morning the past couple days. It is helping a lot!! I have been getting back into my gratitude lists and am stepping out to be of service to others in my community more. I help where I can.
I also signed up for a free support group via zoom. Its for my ED. Its lead by a therapist and apparently quite a few people attend. Im joining in Monday morning (but they have a grouo every day basically of the week). Will see how it goes! I just went on a google searching spree last night, looking for extra suppory for my ED. Its nice to find some free support 
I had my Dr appt yesterday too. She is getting me to do some bloodwork also, which I will do Tuesday. She also suggested to take my morning med at 9am or so (instead of at 630am) so that the med doesnt leave my system too soon. The evenings are hard for bingeing and so maybe taking my med later will help with this. She also mentioned that a generic form of a weight loss med is coming to Canada potentially in January 2026. She suggested i think about it and would prescribe it if I wanted it, as I was on this med (the brand name version) months ago paying an arm and a leg at the time.
Other than that, Im feeling grateful and ready to tackle the day!
That’s wonderful. 
And very proud to see you reach out and start more work for you.
1760.. No Alcohol.
56.. No lust.
Deep joy.
Well it’s a beautiful day. 
It is here also if you are a duck 
. Hope you feel betrer as the day goes on.
@Von100 I love this
@Noshame hope it is indeed a good day. 
@Christophe 2 weeks mate! 
@Nordique your numbers say it all. 
Ive just has a notification that Ive completed twenty days alcohol free. . That puts a bit of 
in this 
today.
I cant really do much outside so im having a soak in the bath and hopefully it will clear up outside and I can get a few repairs done up at the allotment. If not then I’ll do the next best thing and plan.
Oh, I sat in on an online meeting last night. Not because I was struggling, more to do with getting used to the format and how zoom works. The one I was in was hosted by someone in the UK but was infact international. I didnt talk, only to say hello. To be honest I was i the bath for part of the meeting and wasnt sure if I had my mic and camera off 
thankfully I did. It was good to listen, rather like coming on here and reading your stories.
Ive been listening to Easyway today and its the same format as the stop smoking one I did 4½ years ago. Which incidentally did work for me.
Im not getting much from this book but I will persevere with it.
Wishing you all the very best for today.
Great job on 20 days!! 
Thanks Dana, good to see things are looking up for you today.
Morning all on Day 3
Finally got a few things figured out yesterday from my Employe Assistance Program (EAP) from my employer that just fired me…, after years of working for them only once I get fired that I finally managed to get access to the program properly.anyways, it has this cooL self paced Addiction program I started yesterday. That in conjunction with the therapy and actually having time to put into it, I have high hopes. Fingers crossed!
Hi everyone,
Just dropping by to say hello. Everything’s going well, 5 months sober.
Good to see that the forum is still alive and kicking.
Make it a strong sober day. 
Good Morning TS friends. Finally properly checking in on DAY 30! I have been so busy the last few day I kept forgetting to post my replies. ADD activate for sure. I will not forget this time or get sidetracked I swear! 
I finally got my laptop yesterday. My ol’ man got it with my daughter for my 30 Days. He saved anything we would have spent on our demons off to the side and got the one I have been making excuses not to get (basically how I thought I didn’t deserve to get it.) I have never felt better about my overall sobriety. Never felt more support around me (here and home.) It took a lot to get to the point I could discuss my unbecoming, but I have finally gotten comfortable with the peace. I will take today to reflect on the trek so far. Definitely going to catch up hear next 
@Raspberry Closing in on a year! :flexed_bicep I am so incredibly proud of you. I will do the Raspberry warm up everyday to celebrate!
@Just_Laura We should put that on opposite sides of a water bottle that reminds us to drink :squirrel I know the pms does not help our brains either. You are definitely doing amazing with the cards you’ve been dealt.
@Kra 20 Days is awesome! And welcome to a pretty amazing community (if I do say so myself.) I highly recommend searching for some similar interests and reading around. Hope to see you on 20 weeks and beyond :flexed_biceps
@Chevy55 Love seeing you pop in. You’re killing it for sure. I totally get the shift in health and fitness. I also super shifted focus. Best I have felt in my adult life at 40. Keep pushin and thank you for your inspiration.
@Leveller I am so proud of you! I did the same thing. Heck I still do. Sharing has become a new thing to me lol. Keep up the good fight
@JMS19 I am so incredibly proud of you! Also glad you found your way through any EAP I lost patience anytime I dealt with it. Just keep looking forward not behind.
@ShadowFax 5 MONTHS SOBER!!! HOLY INSPIRATION
LIGHT & LOVE ALL 
Checking in sober with 531 days. I hope all of you are well. Let’s get through another 24 hours.
Checking in from the library with the kiddo.
Pretty emotionally exhausted and have been eating ALL of the sweets that get within arms reach. I’m not good about resting without allowing my diet to go out of whack.
Feeling low about the changes in my relationship status but trying to do things to try to take healing steps rather than self destructive ones. Gonna buy myself something that will help me to be more creative and have been considering a tattoo as a way to signify this step into a different level of manhood.

I am feeling mixed today. I have made some mistakes or been wish-washy with a couple of potential clients and need to do a cleanup on Aisle 6, lol. I need to get my proverbial house in order. It always comes down to feeling like I’m not worth it, like I can’t ask for the money I deserve to do the work. The best way for me to operate is to work hourly and not lump sum because then I don’t short-sell myself. For some reason I wrote a lump-sum contract for a small amount of work that might end up being more work and I just feel stupid. I am hoping to course-correct moving forward. I just texted another person and gave him my hourly rates and suggested he find another engineer since I don’t really want to do the project. Yay for me for setting a boundary!
My son has started wearing skirts to school on some days and I am being accepting of it. My daughter has special needs and needs help bathing at age 17 which is a drag for me but I try not to let it show. She also is a picky eater and doesn’t typically eat normal adult food. So it is always hard trying to feed her something different than the rest of the family. On weekends we mostly do take-out so I can accomodate her by ordering off the children’s menu.
I am moving forward one day at a time, which is all I can do. Hope everyone has a happy and healthy 24 hours!
Long time no see vriend! Good to see you now. Love from the Dam.
Thank you Jasmine, so true 
Congrats on 30 days! 
Great that your sobriety is supported at home.
Good that one of us is doing the workout! 
Day 34!
Got a bunch if things done today for the party tomorrow.
Gonna get to bed as soon as I can tonight
Have a great sober saturday everyone!
