Oh man, that’s really rough. Yeah, maybe it’s time. Same with mine, not the disability part, but she comes at me too, and she’s a big dude
Did you like the therapist you used to work with? If that and meds helped, might be best to go back as you said. You have enough on your plate right now, so some relief here would be everything. Sending you virtual hugs
Day 80
Managed to drive, in the rain, and a little on the highway! My friend was extremely calm and supportive, and gave wonderful directions, but just sitting up and talking took it out of her so much . We are both just doing our best, but the situation is so hard.
Today I had a meeting at work, the train ride home from work used to be a real trigger for me, but no thoughts today. Guess it might be different when classes actually start up (if?). But feeling more that the person that drank was a totally different person. Wrote on another thread about drinking in the morning to sober up later, and just thought wtf were u doing? Crazy lady!
Day 100!, 3 digits!
I didnt really live up to this day, but im hella proud!
Thanks for this forum! Its also a huge help for me to see so many people find connection with each other, even though we all come from different paths…
we unite as it comes to sobriety! Much power in this room!
Bless y’ all
Thank you @Dolse71 Paul appreciate. Sending strength to you, totally respect how you have got straight back on the mission and using your wisdom to support others. Your advice is always so solid.
Team day coming up after late shift last night. Going to be a long one after a short night. At least I didn’t complicate it by drinking. How I thought I couldn’t sleep without drinking is beyond me now. Have a good day all. Clean and sober. Love from Amsterdam. @Misokatsu excellent work lady, love your progress! @Dutchie Gefeliciteerd on triple digits man!
oh this is lovely to be the first thing I see when I wake up, I usually miss your checkin in and then make a point of searching for it but finally get distracted by replying to another post, this has given me positive vibes. Well done.
Day 90!!! Honestly can’t believe I made it here. This is the longest I’ve stayed sober since I was 18 years old, and this is my fourth time trying to really quit. I’m immensely happy that I’ve made it this far, and hopefully looking forward to 90 more . Also, shout out to everyone on this website, posting on here every day has been incredibly helpful and I truly think it’s one of the main reasons I’ve made it this far. Onward to 91
thank you so much I’m kinda in shock at how nice everyone is atm, I just sit here typing what I think and you forget other people are reading it. . Have a peaceful day.
Day 4 alcohol Day 90 weed. I’ve got myself a sponsor now, this is the next step, or 12, proper old school he is and can see straight through my bullshit sense of humour. Be strong.
brilliant mate, you are doing great. I know they say one day at a time but 100 is so close it’s hard not to get a bit excited already but for now enjoy this day, 90 Is impressive.
morning show off. I swear I’ve got dementia bc I can’t remember freaking out on your 100 days, in case I missed it bc it was an odd week for me, I’m now officially freaking out
That’s awesome news! Whoo hoo. Sorry the trip was so difficult for your friend, breaks my heart. How lovely that she had you with her. And yes… I feel like the sober versions of ourselves are just completely different people. I’m with you, I looked at that thread and it forced me to remember how gross my life was But yet it’s tricky and calls at the same time. What on earth???
Anyway, your post made me smile. Well done
Weird, isn’t it? Same here, but what awful sleep it was. Passed out isn’t sleep. I was thinking about this a bit this morning… About waking up sober and getting used to how that feels. I started getting complacent, I don’t want to do that. I had a hangover everyday and it was a miserable existence. Have a great day
