I guess I’m okay. Day 47 sober. Ups and downs.
Today the alcoholic voice in my head got loud.
Alcohol use to numb bad feelings and stuff.

I’m 85 days clean. I’ve been going through the same thing. I try and cut the thoughts off because if they take over then I obsess over drinking. Do you have AA meetings where you live? Also working out and going walks help me. Staying busy seems to work for me to

Day… whatever it is now…my run around like a loon time later this evening playing footy.
According to my watch, I generally cover about 7km in an hour so I’m going to see if with the extra energy that I feel I can push beyond that.
I think my record was about 9km in the hour.
Most of it is bursts of sprinting too so it is definitely a good work out.

I’ve been wanting to go to some kind of meeting. I googled AA meetings in my area but I got spooked when I noticed the religiousness on their website. Lot’s of god stuff. No offense to him or people who believe but it’s not really my thing.
Not a religious person. Again no offense to people who are 
But I do want to find a supportgroup or how do I call it? (Noobie in these kind of things). Where people can share things and get support without 12 steps and god.

Checking in on Day 216. Back to the grind after the three-day weekend. Hit the gym this morning, and nothing to do after work today except walk the dog and chill.
Have a strong day!!!

You might be able to find an AA meeting here, that will skip the God and religious stuff.

Was sober 2/24/2017 through 7/14/2018. Then I thought I could handle it. But I couldn’t. There’s nothing more sobering than to have your child ask you if you were drinking and driving. So today is day two.

Oh okay! Do you need a sponsor right away? Or can you just walk in and participate?
It’s better to have a sponsor so they can guide you through the program and help you stay sober. Tell the secretary that you are looking for a sponsor at the end of the meeting. Let me know how it goes!

Day 366. Thank you everyone for your kind words, its means a lot and the past couple of weeks have been tough. Ive set an 18 month milestone now as I don’t want to focus too much on days and milestones moving forward. See how I go. Right now Im trying to pluck up the energy to go to meditation class but Im not feeling it. Perhaps thats when I need it the most?

I can’t imagine anyone holding a grudge with you long enough here for you to be ridiculed, at least not from what I’ve read throughout these forums.
Shit happens, people move on, I’d wager that more people will want to help than cause you more shit.
