Day 1 done! I work nights, so now is when I would usually drink. I’ve decided to take the dog out for a jog instead.

First check-in of the day. I am at the airport, got my coffee, and my flight should start boarding in about 30 minutes. I am not going to drink.

Wow! Day 32! That’s amazing! I hope I can get over a month also. I dont think what you did (posting on fb) was a bad thing at all. You’re sobriety is something to be proud of and its showing people that you’re putting in the work :slight_smile: Hope your job situation comes back okay. If it doesnt, then maybe it wasnt meant to be. Enjoy the circus with your girls. Its wonderful to be able to spend time with family now that we are clean and sober :slight_smile:

To set your counter into days you have to go to the little pencil beneath your daycounter on the left and choose days on display mode button . Hope you understand :grin:

Day 8!
Wow I can’t believe I’m clean and sober. Last night (as some of you had read) was a close call. I’m so appreciative of @anon60334405 @anon13078412 @Dragonflygirl82 @NealRecoveryCA @Gabe.G and @Lisa07 for responding to my post. I’m thankful for everyone in this forum who have each others back and are here for one another. I dont have a close circle of recovery related people, so this is my main source of support honestly. Anyway, I am CLEAN AND SOBER! Starting a new day without shame and guilt. No regrets and physically feeling rested and healthy! I learned a few things from this situation… that relapse happens way before it actually happens. I need to work on developing healthy coping skills for my stress. Today I am starting my day with checking in, then I will do my readings, and get ready for an at-home workout with my resistance bands. Hope everyone has an amazing day! Lots of love.

Yay! Way to go. Proud of you on your 1st day of sobriety :slight_smile:

Well done 109 days Chris @Hidden :muscle: have you been to meetings? They helped me a lot when I was feeling the worst. It’s hard to face depression and anxiety sober. Sharing, connecting, talking whatever is good medicine even though you would rather get slapped on the face than doing it. You got this :hugs:

So happy to hear:). Don’t worry you’re gonna make it to that 30 day Mark. And I’m gonna be right here with yah doing daily check ins with yah to keep yah on track💪. It’s seriously the best feeling, just focus on those work out gains:). And I’m super excited for tonight, before I wouldn’t go bc it would get in the way of my drinking, and I would have such bad anxiety. I’m literally so happy to go tonight, me and autumn are gonna get are face painted. And exactly before I would dwell about the fact that this happened with the second job, i probably would of drank and got some drugs. But this time, I said hey I accept this, it’s happening for a reason. Everything does

Congrats on 90 days super girl @Salty :sparkling_heart::partying_face::facepunch:

Perfectly said! Thank you. It really helps to know I’m not alone. I like the self analysis part. I definitely need to work on that … my depression ‘voice’ is winning far to much! :thinking::kissing_heart:
