Crisis averted here on day 19. I really had an urge to go the bar after work, but I stayed the course and came home. Onto sober day #20.
For me I have found that if I reply while driving my posts are much shorter.

Blurb from my cycling challenge; apparently me an 694 others have signed-up worldwide:
"The Tour of Sufferlandria is the Greatest Grand Tour of a Mythical Nation in the World. Nine days of brutal stages showcasing the harsh beauty of that tortured country on the shores of the Great Lactic Acid Sea, all to benefit the Davis Phinney Foundation and their programmes to help those affected by Parkinson’s Disease. For more details, visit: www.thesuf.com/tos2020
You and 694 Sufferlandrians have joined the challenge."

Thanks for thinking of me, I have been very busy today and had a SMART meeting last night.
Did not get to check-in this morning.
Happy Valentine’s Day!!!
oh boy
today was interesting
my emotions were like a yoyo
i woke up late and my viseting med nurse said my heart rate was high
i had to miss a noon meeting because i felt i distracted everyone
i have a primary care appointment on friday the 21st and for some reason im fearing the worst but i dont know why
i worked out this afternoon and felt great then came back home and slept
woke up and felt my anxiety again about my appointment
i take viteman d over the counter. a low dose and i think it might be interfearing with my perscribed meds. just so much energy i cant seem to focus
im not taking vitamin d anymore
thanks for letting me vent
Day 30 1 month down congrats everyone
Big Congrats on one month Sean! Nice accomplishment. Keep up the hard work.
Good job !!!
You were touch and go early on. Nice work putting in the effort. Have a great weekend!!
Hi, I haven’t drank for 11 days and 16 hours. I’m feeling better mentally and emotionally and have been praying. Had foot surgery yesterday and that went well. A family member brought some meals for us and we happen to have a small wheelchair which barely fits my caboose but works in a pinch. The hospital delivered a scooter which I will try out tomorrow. Being careful with all of my pills and trying not to eat too much. Watching too much Netflix, so trying to read more! That is all.

Great job on 11+ days!!! Keep it up. Feet are hard since we rely on them to get around. Hopefully it heals fast so you can get back at it.
Day 467. I started off today cheerful, but now I am feeling very, very low.
Its a lot better today. If I end up getting depressed again, I’d rather go back on Lexapro than fight with it.
Day 314. Thanks to all who replied to my post last night. I was really tired after coming off a very busy week at work, so that may have contributed to feelin so bad. Today is a lot better after slow morning and getting rest. Maybe yesterday was the worst of it, and nights tend to be harder than mornings.
I would like to add that I think Lexapro was really effective in helping manage my depression. I would definitely go back on it if I get depressed again for long length of time. Wish everyone the best! Thank you for being here
If you were looking for an excuse to eat today, there it is.
