Checking in daily to maintain focus #9

@Nvbookthief hey thats really good news so will there be a second? What a positive result of being sober having confidence to be yourself with someone. There is hope for me yet… :heart_eyes: keep smiling

Well done for your 1 month sober Mike!! :tada:
It’s not strange to feel foggy ore have difficult feelings. My emotions were all over the place the first 3 months ore so.

@crystalclear: one day to go to our well deserved weekend!! Whoop! :confetti_ball: Whoop!!:confetti_ball:

Bali is a great spot to celebrate such an achievement @MissDuse. Thank you for showing us it can be done!!

I’ve read it all @Mtrav0040, I feel you. Issues with parent are very difficult in my opinion because somehow you are never equel to eachother. Never just adults having a conversation together. We still having (the old) child/parent situation. We have our role and that makes it so difficult to overlook but I think you did your part of this in good matter. Mediation is a good idea, hope it helps to move forward. You are putting efford in your relationship with your parents and keep the door open. But be aware of yourself and your family in this. Don’t let your parents get between you and your wife ore use your son as reason to argue. Guard yourself :heart:

Keep going @Soupspoon, sleep is a difficult thing for most of us in the beginning of sobriaty. It will be better in time! A bodyscan can work and have you tried the “sleepmusic” already?

Congratulations @AyBee! Nicely captured :100::100::100: days!! :star_struck::star_struck::star_struck:

Wow @Mno, time flies for you!! And 4 weeks is loooongggg! I’m a bit jealous :hugs: But we have one thing in common: tonight we both have a 3 days weekend!! :confetti_ball: Have a good day Menno! :+1:

Well done on your sober days and avoid too much acidic food, no :tomato: based stuff or fruit juices.

Thanks…:+1:

Hi all!
It has been a while since I have checked in.
Day: 270 sober.
I am feeling fantastic and things couldn’t be better for myself and my son.
I often reminisce about when things were really aweful and I didnt think they would ever get better.
But with determination and a positive attitude they have immensely improved.
Sending hugs and strength to those who need it today. :heart:
